  The SAP error message UGX2022 indicates that there is an issue with the selection type of variables in a query. This error typically arises when you are trying to use a variable in a query that is not supported for the selection type you have chosen. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Unsupported Selection Type: The variable you are using in the query may have a selection type that is not compatible with the query's structure or the data source.
  Variable Configuration: The variable might be configured incorrectly in the query definition, leading to a mismatch between the expected and actual selection types.

  Review Query Structure:
  
  Ensure that the query is designed to accommodate the variable. Check if the data source and the characteristics used in the query support the variable's selection type.
