• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDRV_VPROHANA015 - Key figure &1 is a non-cumulative key figure. No reporting possible. ?

  The SAP error message RSDRV_VPROHANA015 indicates that you are trying to perform a reporting operation on a non-cumulative key figure in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA. Non-cumulative key figures are typically used for data that does not accumulate over time, such as rates or ratios, and they cannot be aggregated in the same way that cumulative key figures can.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You attempt to aggregate or perform calculations on a non-cumulative key figure in a context where cumulative aggregation is expected.
  The query or report you are running is trying to sum or otherwise aggregate a non-cumulative key figure, which is not allowed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following approaches:
  
  
  Check Key Figure Settings:
  
  Verify the properties of the key figure in the InfoObject definition. Ensure that it is correctly defined as a non-cumulative key figure if that is the intended use.
  If you need to perform cumulative calculations, consider changing the key figure to a cumulative type if it makes sense for your data model.
  
  
  
  Adjust Query Design:
  
  Review the query design in the Query Designer. Ensure that you are not trying to aggregate the non-cumulative key figure in a way that is not supported.
  If you need to display the non-cumulative key figure, consider using it in a context that does not require aggregation, such as displaying it in a detail view rather than a summary view.
  
  
  
  Use Calculated Key Figures:
  
  If you need to perform calculations involving non-cumulative key figures, consider creating a calculated key figure that can handle the logic you need without violating the non-cumulative nature.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation for more details on key figure types and their appropriate use cases. This can provide insights into how to structure your data and queries effectively.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the query or report again to ensure that the error is resolved and that the data is being displayed as expected.
