  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /EACC/DM_QUERY003 - Key figure &1 is not defined in InfoCube &2 ?

    The SAP error message /EACC/DM_QUERY003 Key figure &1 is not defined in InfoCube &2 typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA when a query is trying to access a key figure that is not defined in the specified InfoCube. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:

    Cause:

    1. Key Figure Not Defined: The key figure specified in the error message (&1) is not part of the InfoCube (&2) that the query is trying to access. This could happen if the key figure was removed or never included in the InfoCube.
    2. Query Design Issues: The query might have been designed incorrectly, referencing key figures that do not exist in the underlying data model.
    3. Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to the InfoCube or the addition/removal of key figures, can lead to this error if the query is not updated accordingly.
    4. Transport Issues: If the query was transported from one system to another, and the InfoCube structure is different in the target system, this error may occur.

    Solutions:

    1. Check InfoCube Definition: Verify the definition of the InfoCube in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) to ensure that the key figure exists. If it does not, you may need to add it.
    2. Update the Query: If the key figure is not supposed to be part of the InfoCube, update the query to remove references to the non-existent key figure. This can be done in the Query Designer (transaction RSRT).
    3. Rebuild the Query: If the query is complex and has many dependencies, consider rebuilding it from scratch to ensure it aligns with the current InfoCube structure.
    4. Check for Transport Issues: If the query was transported, ensure that the InfoCube and its key figures are also present in the target system. If not, you may need to transport the InfoCube or adjust the query accordingly.
    5. Consult Documentation: Review any documentation or change logs related to the InfoCube and query to understand any recent changes that might have led to this issue.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • RSA1: Data Warehousing Workbench for InfoCube management.
      • RSRT: Query Monitor for executing and testing queries.
      • RSD1: InfoObject maintenance to check key figure definitions.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
    • Data Model Documentation: Maintain documentation of your data model to track changes in key figures and InfoCubes.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a suitable solution.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
