SAP Note 992805 - Overflow during the arithmetical operation (type P)

Component : BW Administration Cockpit -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/992805 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
SAP systems may experience an arithmetic overflow of type P during processing involving InfoProviders 0TCT_C01 and 0TCT_C02, leading to issues in data loading, information retrieval from Virtual Providers, and shortdumps within the ST03 transaction. Affected versions are those below BI_CONT 7.04 SP8 or BI_CONT 7.05 SP2. The solution involves manual adjustments in transaction RSD1 for InfoObjects 0TCTDBSEL, 0TCTDBTRANS, and 0TCTSTATCNT. Admins must ensure these are set to type 'Number' and data type 'DEC', then activate them to resolve the overflow issue and stabilize system functionality.
