• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BRAIN_SUP030 - CMP_SUPPORT is not possible for &2 as &1 is not compounded ?

  The SAP error message BRAIN_SUP030 indicates that a certain operation related to the "CMP_SUPPORT" (compounding support) is not possible for a specific object because it is not compounded. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP Analytics, where compounding is a feature used to manage hierarchies and relationships between different data elements.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to perform a compounding operation on an object (like a characteristic or a key figure) that is not set up to support compounding. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  The characteristic or key figure is not defined as compounded in the data model.
  The data model or InfoObject does not have the necessary settings to allow for compounding.
  There may be inconsistencies in the data model configuration.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the InfoObject Settings:
  
  Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSD1).
  Verify if the characteristic or key figure in question is set up for compounding. You can check the "Compounding" checkbox in the InfoObject definition.
  
  
  
  Modify the Data Model:
  
  If the object is not compounded and you need it to be, you may need to adjust the data model to include compounding. This may involve creating a new InfoObject or modifying the existing one.
  
  
  
  Review Hierarchies:
  
  If the object is supposed to be part of a hierarchy, ensure that the hierarchy is correctly defined and that the objects within it are set up to support compounding.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no dependencies or settings in other related objects that might be affecting the compounding capability.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If changes were made in a development environment, ensure that the changes are transported to the production environment correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to compounding and InfoObjects for more detailed guidance.
