• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UPP_LB075 - Variable &1 is not a single value. It cannot be used ?

  The SAP error message UPP_LB075 indicates that a variable you are trying to use in a planning function or report is not a single value. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC) when a variable is expected to hold a single value but instead contains multiple values or is not properly defined.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Values: The variable you are using is defined in such a way that it can take multiple values, but the context in which you are trying to use it requires a single value.
  Incorrect Variable Definition: The variable may not be correctly defined in the planning model or may not be set up to filter down to a single value.
  Context Issues: The context in which the variable is being used may not be appropriate for the variable type (e.g., using a characteristic that can have multiple values in a context that requires a single value).
  User Input: If the variable is based on user input, the user may have selected multiple options instead of a single one.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Variable Definition: Review the definition of the variable in the planning model. Ensure that it is set up to return a single value when used in the context you are working with.
  Adjust User Input: If the variable is based on user input, ensure that the user is instructed to select only a single value. You may need to implement validation to prevent multiple selections.
  Use Filters: If applicable, use filters or additional logic to ensure that the variable resolves to a single value before it is used in the planning function or report.
  Debugging: If you have access to debugging tools, you can trace the variable's value at runtime to see why it is returning multiple values.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the variable type and its expected usage.
