Question Re: Variable has to be restricted to a single value in Technology Q&A

Variable has to be restricted to a single value

former_member381836 — Tue, 24 Jul 2018 17:29:32 GMT

Hi, all,

I get an error "Variable has to be restricted to a single value"

I'm executing a planning function and using a filter in a planning sequence.

Said filter is restricted in 0FISCYEAR: '#' and a ZVAR_FISCYEAR variable.

Same with 0VERSION: '#' and ZVAR_VERSION.

The planning function reads the variable using VARV. The variables allow for only single values, so I'm positive that they are not passing multiple values.

I found a note that this error could be corrected in BW 7.3 with a Support Package but I haven't found anything for BW 7.5 which is the one we're using.

If anyone knows why this is happening or has any solution, I'd be grateful!

Hi Nidia,

from which frontened are you running the function?

Is the variable value handed over from the frontend correctly to the function?

regards

Cornelia

Hi, Cornelia,

I'm executing the planning function from TCODE RSPLAN. I'm executing the PF using a Planning sequence in RSPLAN.

Hi Nidia,

then check your variable coding, if that is correct, check also for other errors in planning function coding, because sometimes the error message text does not fit to the actual error in the function.

Hi Nidia,

Have you given the fixed filter for 0FISCVARNT?

Best Regards,
