Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues related to data overflow errors occurring in various database systems (HANA, Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB6, SAP MaxDB) during specific BW operations such as rollup, compression, and query execution. It provides detailed guidance on identifying and analyzing the problematic SQL statements and key figures contributing to these errors. The errors commonly result from the processed values exceeding the data type limits of database columns. The solution section of the note outlines a systematic approach to trace and resolve these errors, including SQL statement retrieval, key figure identification, and data type verification. It encourages utilizing SE11 and SE14 transactions to assess data types and limits.
