• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UJA_EXCEPTION370 - Member &1 has already been used in member formula of &2 ?

  The SAP error message UJA_EXCEPTION370 indicates that there is a problem with a member formula in a SAP BW (Business Warehouse) environment, specifically related to the use of a member in a formula that has already been utilized elsewhere. This typically occurs in the context of BEx (Business Explorer) queries or when working with InfoObjects and their formulas.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  A member (e.g., a characteristic or key figure) is being referenced multiple times in a formula for a single InfoObject or in a calculation that does not allow for such duplication.
  The member is already part of another formula or calculation context, leading to conflicts in the evaluation of the formula.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Formula: Check the formula associated with the InfoObject or the calculation. Ensure that the member in question is not being used more than once in the same formula.
  
  
  Modify the Formula: If the member is indeed used multiple times, consider restructuring the formula to avoid duplication. You may need to create intermediate calculations or use different members to achieve the desired result.
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Look for any dependencies or relationships that might be causing the member to be referenced in multiple places. This can include other calculated members or key figures.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, test the formula to ensure that it works correctly without triggering the error.
  
  
  Documentation: Document any changes made to the formula for future reference and to help other users understand the modifications.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific guidance or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its documentation and may have specific recommendations for your version of BW.
