• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR335 - InfoObject & is a non-cumulative value. ?

  The SAP error message RSAR335 indicates that the InfoObject you are trying to use is a non-cumulative value. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when dealing with data extraction and reporting.
  Cause:
  The error arises because the InfoObject in question is defined as a non-cumulative key figure. Non-cumulative key figures are those that do not accumulate over time, such as amounts that are not meant to be summed up (e.g., balances, stock levels). When you attempt to perform operations that require cumulative values (like aggregating data over time), this error is triggered.
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSAR335 error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check InfoObject Definition: Verify the definition of the InfoObject in the Data Dictionary (transaction code SE11). Ensure that it is correctly defined as a non-cumulative key figure if that is the intended use.
  
  
  Adjust Query or Report: If you are using this InfoObject in a query or report, you may need to adjust your query design. Avoid using non-cumulative key figures in contexts where cumulative values are expected.
  
  
  Use Cumulative Key Figures: If your analysis requires cumulative values, consider using a different InfoObject that is defined as cumulative. You may need to create a new InfoObject or modify an existing one to meet your requirements.
  
  
  Data Modeling: Review your data model to ensure that the InfoObjects are being used appropriately. If necessary, consult with your data modeler or BW consultant to make adjustments.
  
  
  Documentation and Training: Ensure that users who are creating queries or reports are aware of the differences between cumulative and non-cumulative key figures. Providing training or documentation can help prevent this error in the future.
