• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VEC02104 - Left and right formulas must have the same exponential power. ?

  The SAP error message VEC02104, which states "Left and right formulas must have the same exponential power," typically occurs in the context of SAP's Variant Configuration (VC) when defining dependencies or constraints for configurable materials. This error indicates that there is a mismatch in the exponential powers of the left and right sides of a formula used in a dependency.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when you are trying to create or modify a dependency (such as a constraint or a formula) in the Variant Configuration, and the left-hand side (LHS) and right-hand side (RHS) of the formula do not have the same exponential power. This means that the terms on both sides of the equation are not balanced in terms of their powers, which is a requirement for the formula to be valid.
  Example:
  For instance, if you have a formula like:
  2 * A^2 = B^3
  This would trigger the error because the left side
