• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSRQPROV058 - The key figure &1 cannot be aggregated afterwards ?

  The SAP error message RSRQPROV058 indicates that a key figure in a query cannot be aggregated after it has been defined in a certain way. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when working with queries in BEx (Business Explorer).
  Cause:
  The error usually arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  
  Non-Aggregatable Key Figure: The key figure is defined in a way that does not allow for aggregation. This can happen if the key figure is based on a formula or a characteristic that cannot be summed up or averaged.
  
  
  Data Type Issues: The data type of the key figure may not support aggregation. For example, if the key figure is defined as a text or a non-numeric type, it cannot be aggregated.
  
  
  Query Design: The query design may include characteristics or filters that prevent the aggregation of the key figure.
  
  
  Inconsistent Data: If the underlying data has inconsistencies or if the key figure is derived from a complex calculation that does not lend itself to aggregation, this error can occur.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSRQPROV058 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Key Figure Definition: Review the definition of the key figure in the InfoObject. Ensure that it is defined as an aggregatable key figure. If it is a calculated key figure, check the formula to ensure it can be aggregated.
  
  
  Modify Query Design: If the query design includes filters or characteristics that prevent aggregation, consider modifying the query. You may need to remove certain filters or change the structure of the query.
  
  
  Data Type Verification: Ensure that the key figure is of a numeric data type that supports aggregation. If it is not, you may need to redefine it.
  
  
  Aggregation Settings: Check the aggregation settings in the query designer. Ensure that the key figure is set to aggregate correctly based on your requirements.
  
  
  Test with Sample Data: If possible, test the query with a smaller dataset to see if the error persists. This can help identify if the issue is data-related.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on key figure aggregation and query design.
