  The SAP error message RSAR150 indicates that there is an issue with the InfoSource configuration in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) system. Specifically, the error states that the position of the InfoSource must be different from one of the characteristics listed (in this case, it seems to be a placeholder for a list of characteristics).
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when there is a conflict in the definition of the InfoSource, particularly when the InfoSource is trying to use a characteristic that is not allowed or is incorrectly defined. The characteristics listed (e.g., 0123456789YZ) are likely placeholders for actual characteristic names or IDs that are causing the conflict.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check InfoSource Configuration:
  
  Go to the InfoSource in the SAP BW system and review its configuration.
