• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSWWW011 - Map level "&1" must have only one geo-characteritic in the rows ?

  The SAP error message RSWWW011 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a query or report in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence). Specifically, it states that the map level specified (denoted by "&1") must contain only one geo-characteristic in the rows. This error typically arises when you are trying to create a map visualization that requires a single geographic dimension, but multiple geographic characteristics have been included in the rows of the query.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Geo-Characteristics: The primary cause of this error is that the query or report is set up with more than one geographic characteristic in the rows. For example, if you have both "Country" and "Region" in the rows, the system cannot determine how to display the data on a map.
  Incorrect Query Design: The design of the query may not align with the requirements for map visualizations, which typically need a single geographic dimension to plot data accurately.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSWWW011 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Query Design:
  
  Open the query in the Query Designer.
  Check the rows section of the query to identify any geographic characteristics that are included.
  
  
  
  Limit to One Geo-Characteristic:
  
  Remove any additional geographic characteristics from the rows. Ensure that only one geo-characteristic is present. For example, if you have both "Country" and "Region," choose only one of them (e.g., "Country").
  
  
  
  Adjust the Map Level:
  
  If necessary, adjust the map level settings to ensure that it corresponds to the single geo-characteristic you are using.
  
  
  
  Test the Query:
  
  After making the changes, execute the query again to see if the error persists. The map visualization should now work correctly with the single geographic dimension.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Geo-Characteristics: These are dimensions in your data model that represent geographic locations, such as countries, regions, cities, etc. They are essential for map visualizations.
  SAP BW/BI Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for more details on query design and map visualizations.
  SAP Community: You can also check the SAP Community forums for discussions related to this error, as other users may have encountered and resolved similar issues.
