How To Fix RSDME366 - Predictable model field &1 is CONTINUOUS. Specify binning intervals

RSDME366 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSDME -

• Message number: 366

• Message text: Predictable model field &1 is CONTINUOUS. Specify binning intervals

What causes this issue?

Content type of predictable model field is CONTINUOUS but no explicit
binning intervals are specified.

System Response

Content type of predictable model field should be DISCRETE. If the data
content is CONTINUOUS, then they have to be discretized by binning.

How to fix this error?

Specify binning intervals in the model field values

RSDME366 - Details

• The SAP error message RSDME366 indicates that you are trying to create or modify a predictive model in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA, and the model field you are working with is defined as "CONTINUOUS." This means that the field is treated as a continuous variable, which typically requires binning (i.e., dividing the continuous range into discrete intervals) for certain types of predictive modeling.
  
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the predictive modeling algorithm you are using requires the continuous variable to be transformed into discrete bins. This is often necessary for algorithms that work better with categorical data or when you want to analyze the data in specific ranges.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to specify binning intervals for the continuous field. Here’s how you can do that:
  
  
  Define Binning Intervals:
  
  Go to the predictive model configuration where you have defined your fields.
  Locate the continuous field that is causing the error.
  Specify the
