  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP190 - Choose at least one key figure ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WXP190 - Choose at least one key figure


    Cause:

    This message appears in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP Analytics when you try to execute or generate a query or report without selecting any key figure. Key figures are the numerical data fields (measures) that you want to analyze or display in your report. Since a query without any key figure has no meaningful data to show, the system prompts you to select at least one.


    When does it occur?

    • When designing or running a BEx Query in SAP BW.
    • When executing a report or analysis in tools like BEx Analyzer, SAP Analysis for Office, or Web Intelligence.
    • When the query definition or selection screen does not include any key figure.

    Solution:

    • Select at least one key figure in your query or report definition before executing it.
    • In the BEx Query Designer, ensure that the "Key Figures" section contains at least one key figure.
    • If you are using a report or analysis tool, check the filters or selections and make sure that key figures are included.
    • If the query is dynamically generated or modified by user input or variables, verify that the logic always results in at least one key figure being selected.

    Additional Information:

    • Key figures represent the quantitative data (e.g., sales amount, quantity, cost) in SAP BW queries.
    • Characteristics (dimensions) are used to slice and dice the data, but without key figures, there is no data to analyze.
    • This error is a safeguard to prevent meaningless or empty reports.
    • If you believe you have selected key figures but still get this error, check for:
      • Authorization issues preventing access to key figures.
      • Query design errors where key figures are hidden or filtered out.
      • Variable or filter settings that exclude all key figures.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WXP190 - Choose at least one key figure
    Cause No key figure selected in query/report
    Solution Select at least one key figure before execution
    Context SAP BW BEx Query Designer, BEx Analyzer, SAP Analytics tools

    If you need help identifying which key figures to select or how to modify your query, please provide details about the query or report you are working on.
