• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VEC02122 - Add a filter condition using superordinate field &2 for &1 in operand &3. ?

  The SAP error message VEC02122 typically occurs in the context of using the SAP Query or SAP Report Painter/Writer tools, where a filter condition is required for a specific field in a report or query. The message indicates that a filter condition must be added using a "superordinate field" for the specified field in the operand.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you are trying to create or execute a query or report that requires a filter condition on a field that is dependent on another field (the superordinate field). The system expects you to define a filter condition for the superordinate field before you can filter on the subordinate field.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Superordinate Field: Determine which field is the superordinate field for the field you are trying to filter. This information is usually available in the data model or documentation related to the query/report.
  
  
  Add Filter Condition:
  
  Go to the query or report definition where the error occurred.
  Locate the section where you can define filter conditions.
  Add a filter condition for the superordinate field. This may involve specifying values or ranges for the superordinate field that will allow the system to correctly filter the subordinate field.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Ensure that the relationship between the superordinate and subordinate fields is correctly understood and that the filter conditions make logical sense.
  
  
  Test the Query/Report: After adding the necessary filter condition, execute the query or report again to see if the error is resolved.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files related to the specific query/report you are working with for more details on field dependencies.
  SAP Community: You can search for discussions or similar issues in the SAP Community forums, where other users may have encountered and resolved the same error.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SQ01 (SAP Query), SQ02 (InfoSet), and SQ03 (User Groups) if you are working with SAP Queries.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide more tailored assistance based on your specific environment and configuration.
