  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP653 - Selected area does not contain the key figure for interface &1 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WXP653 Selected area does not contain the key figure for interface &1


    Cause:

    This error occurs in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI when you try to execute or process a query, report, or interface, and the selected data area (e.g., the query result set or the data slice) does not include the required key figure (measure) that is expected or mandatory for the interface or process identified by &1.

    In other words, the system expects a particular key figure (measure) to be present in the data selection or query result, but it is missing. This can happen due to:

    • The key figure was not included in the query or report layout.
    • The key figure was removed or filtered out in the selection.
    • The interface or process requires a specific key figure that is not part of the current data set.
    • Incorrect or incomplete query design or selection criteria.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you should:

    1. Identify the missing key figure:

      • The placeholder &1 in the message will be replaced by the technical name of the key figure that is missing.
      • Note down this key figure name.
    2. Check the query or report design:

      • Open the query in the Query Designer or BEx Analyzer.
      • Verify that the key figure mentioned in the error message is included in the query.
      • If it is missing, add the key figure to the query.
    3. Check the selection/filter criteria:

      • Ensure that the key figure is not filtered out or excluded by any selection or filter.
      • Adjust filters or selections to include the key figure.
    4. Check the interface or process requirements:

      • Review the interface or process documentation to understand which key figures are mandatory.
      • Make sure the query or data extraction includes all required key figures.
    5. Test the query or interface again:

      • After including the key figure, re-execute the query or interface.
      • The error should no longer occur if the key figure is present.

    Related Information:

    • This error is common in SAP BW when working with queries, reports, or data extraction interfaces that expect certain key figures.
    • It is important to maintain consistency between the query design and the interface requirements.
    • If you are using custom interfaces or third-party tools, ensure that the data source (query) provides all necessary key figures.
