    Error Message

    WXPA015: Invalid key figure &1 has been assigned


    Cause

    This error typically occurs in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when there is an issue with the assignment of key figures in a query or a report. Specifically:

    • The key figure referenced (represented by &1 in the message) is not valid in the context where it is being used.
    • The key figure might not exist in the InfoProvider or the underlying data source.
    • The key figure might have been deleted, renamed, or is not included in the query definition.
    • There could be a mismatch between the key figure assigned in the query and the actual key figures available in the InfoProvider or the BEx query.
    • Sometimes, this error can occur if the query or report is transported from one system to another and the key figure does not exist in the target system.

    Solution

    To resolve the error WXPA015, follow these steps:

    1. Check the Key Figure in the Query:

      • Open the BEx Query Designer.
      • Verify that the key figure mentioned in the error message exists in the query.
      • Ensure that the key figure is correctly assigned and is valid.
    2. Verify the InfoProvider:

      • Check the InfoProvider (e.g., InfoCube, DSO) to confirm that the key figure exists.
      • If the key figure was deleted or renamed, update the query accordingly.
    3. Check Transport and System Consistency:

      • If the query was transported from another system, verify that the key figure exists in the target system.
      • If not, either transport the missing key figure or adjust the query to use existing key figures.
    4. Recreate or Adjust the Query:

      • If the key figure is invalid or corrupted, try removing and re-adding the key figure in the query.
      • Save and activate the query again.
    5. Check for Authorization Issues:

      • Sometimes, missing authorizations can cause key figures to be invisible or inaccessible.
      • Verify user authorizations for the InfoProvider and key figures.
    6. Check for Updates or Patches:

      • In rare cases, this error might be due to a bug.
      • Check SAP Notes for any relevant patches or fixes.
