  • Message class: WXP - Retail Planning

  • Message text: Aggregation behavior for key figure &1 is not "Total"

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    You have not chosen the non-time-based aggregation behavior "Total" for
    key figure &V1& in planning step &V2&. You have, however, assigned a BW
    InfoObject to the key figure, so that when actual data is read from the
    connected BW system, the key figure is supplied with actual data.
    Note, however, that when the actual data is read, an automatic
    aggregation of the BW data, which is assigned to the planning step that
    is to be supplied (here &V2&), takes place at the info structure level.
    This automatic aggregation does not take into consideration the
    aggregation behavior selected for the key figure. Instead it uses the
    (non-time-based) aggregation behavior "Total".

    System Response

    This is only a warning. The planning scenario can still be activated.

    How to fix this error?

    Make sure that the aggregation behavior "Total" is justified for key
    figure &V1& in the data aggregation at info structure level of planning
    step &V2&.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Some query functions or calculations require the key figure to have aggregation behavior "Total" to ensure correct summation or aggregation logic. When does it occur? When creating or executing queries in BEx Query Designer or Analysis for Office. When using certain functions or restricted key figures that require
