  The SAP error message RSRTS_CDS058 typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when working with CompositeProviders or when executing queries that involve CDS (Core Data Services) views. The error message indicates that there is an issue with an annotated formula in the query or the data model.
  Cause:
  The error message "Annotated formula for &1: invalid &2 &3" generally points to one of the following issues:
  
  Invalid Formula Syntax: The formula defined in the CDS view or CompositeProvider may have syntax errors or may not be correctly defined.
  Data Type Mismatch: The data types of the fields used in the formula may not be compatible, leading to an invalid operation.
  Missing Annotations: Required annotations for the formula may be missing, which can lead to the formula not being recognized or processed correctly.
  Incorrect Field References: The fields referenced in the formula may not exist or may have been renamed or deleted.
  Incompatibility with Query: The formula may not be compatible with the query being executed, especially if the query is expecting a different structure or data type.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSRTS_CDS058 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Formula Syntax: Review the annotated formula for any syntax errors. Ensure that it follows the correct syntax for the CDS view or CompositeProvider.

  Review Annotations: Check if all required annotations are present in the CDS view. Ensure that the annotations are correctly defined and applied.
  
  
  Field References: Verify that all field references in the formula are correct and that the fields exist in the data model. If any fields have been renamed or removed, update the formula accordingly.
  
  
  Test the Query: Run the query without the formula to see if it executes successfully. This can help isolate whether the issue is with the formula or with the underlying data model.
  
  
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider using the debugging tools available in SAP BW to trace the execution of the query and identify where the error occurs.
