• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDRI_HDB503 - Cannot eliminate zeros since key figures with aggregation <> SUM ?

  The SAP error message RSDRI_HDB503 indicates that there is an issue with the aggregation of key figures in a query or report, specifically when trying to eliminate zeros. This error typically arises in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA environments when the system encounters key figures that are not aggregated using the SUM function.

  Query Design: The design of the query may include multiple key figures with different aggregation types, leading to conflicts when trying to process the data.
  Data Model Issues: There may be issues in the underlying data model or InfoProvider that lead to this error.
