• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSR_EXPLAIN002 - No exc. aggr. in HANA/BWA for constant &1 as it is a planning data query ?

  The SAP error message RSR_EXPLAIN002 indicates that there is no exception aggregation defined for a constant in a planning data query. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when working with queries that involve planning data, especially when using HANA or BWA (Business Warehouse Accelerator).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Exception Aggregation: The query is trying to use a constant value for which no exception aggregation has been defined. Exception aggregation is used in planning scenarios to handle specific cases where standard aggregation rules do not apply.
  Query Design: The query might be designed in a way that it expects certain aggregations to be defined, but they are not set up in the InfoProvider or the query definition.
  Planning Data: The data being queried is planning data, which often requires specific handling for aggregations that differ from standard reporting data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Exception Aggregation:
  
  Go to the InfoProvider (e.g., InfoCube or DSO) that is being used in the query.
  Check the aggregation settings and ensure that exception aggregation is defined for the relevant characteristics and key figures.
  You can do this in the SAP BW modeling tools by navigating to the InfoProvider and adjusting the settings for exception aggregation.
  
  
  
  Adjust Query Design:
  
  Open the query in the Query Designer.
  Check the properties of the key figures and ensure that they are set up correctly for planning scenarios.
  If necessary, modify the query to avoid using constants that do not have defined exception aggregations.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to planning queries and exception aggregation to ensure that you are following best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the query to ensure that the error is resolved and that the expected results are returned.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Planning Queries: In SAP BW, planning queries are designed to work with planning data, which often requires special handling for aggregations.
  Exception Aggregation: This is a feature in SAP BW that allows for different aggregation rules to be applied to specific data points, which is crucial in planning scenarios where standard aggregation may not be appropriate.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on handling planning queries and exception aggregations.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with an SAP BW expert or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
