• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDD_TIP_LOGI117 - InfoObject &2 referenced by key figure &1 is not a unit ?

  The SAP error message RSDD_TIP_LOGI117 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a key figure in a data model, specifically that the InfoObject referenced by the key figure is not defined as a unit. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA when working with key figures and their associated InfoObjects.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect InfoObject Type: The key figure is referencing an InfoObject that is not defined as a unit. In SAP BW, units are typically defined as InfoObjects of type "Unit of Measure" (e.g., currency, weight, length).
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the data model or the InfoObject settings, leading to the system not recognizing the InfoObject as a valid unit.
  Data Model Design: The design of the data model may not align with the expected definitions for key figures and their associated units.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check InfoObject Definition:
  
  Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and check the definition of the InfoObject referenced by the key figure.
  Ensure that the InfoObject is defined as a unit of measure. If it is not, you may need to create a new InfoObject of the correct type or modify the existing one.
  
  
  
  Modify Key Figure Settings:
  
  If the key figure is incorrectly configured, you may need to adjust its settings to reference the correct unit InfoObject.
  Ensure that the key figure is set up to use a unit of measure that is compatible with its data type.
  
  
  
  Rebuild or Adjust Data Model:
  
  If the data model is complex, consider rebuilding or adjusting the model to ensure that all key figures and InfoObjects are correctly defined and linked.
  Check for any dependencies or relationships that may be causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the data model to ensure that the error is resolved and that the key figures are functioning as expected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for detailed information on InfoObjects, key figures, and data modeling in SAP BW.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights and solutions from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) and RSD1 (InfoObject Maintenance) for managing InfoObjects and key figures.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the RSDD_TIP_LOGI117 error and ensure that your key figures are correctly configured with the appropriate units.
