• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDDTPS102 - &1 has set calculation before aggregation ?

  The SAP error message RSDDTPS102 indicates that a characteristic in a query has been set to perform a calculation before aggregation. This can lead to issues because the calculation may not be meaningful or valid when applied to aggregated data.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when:
  
  A key figure is defined to perform a calculation (like a formula or a derived value) that is intended to be executed before the data is aggregated.
  The characteristic that is causing the issue is set to be aggregated, but the calculation logic does not support this aggregation.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Query Definition:
  
  Open the query in the Query Designer.
  Identify the key figure or characteristic that is causing the error.
  
  
  
  Adjust Calculation Settings:
  
  If the calculation is not necessary before aggregation, consider changing the calculation to occur after aggregation.
  You can do this by modifying the properties of the key figure in the InfoProvider or the query definition.
  
  
  
  Modify the Aggregation Level:
  
  Ensure that the aggregation level of the characteristic is appropriate for the calculation being performed.
  If the calculation must occur before aggregation, ensure that the data model supports this.
  
  
  
  Review the Data Model:
  
  Check the underlying data model (InfoObjects, InfoCubes, DSO) to ensure that the characteristics and key figures are defined correctly.
  Make sure that the data types and aggregation settings are compatible with the calculations being performed.
  
  
  
  Test the Query:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the query to ensure that it runs without errors and returns the expected results.
