Error in Formula Calculation

[Former Member]

Dear BW Mates,

I am trying to build a formula to sum up the three key figures.

My formula is this:

Total Planned Pos= Po PlannedPoconfirmedOutstanding PO

PO Planned ans Po Confirmed has got Units EA where as I dont see the units for Outstanding POs. Indeed I am trying to put the Nodim but the result is same.

Please see the Error

<b>Element Total Planned##Receipts is not correctly defined (please check

query definition).

Message no. BRAIN206

Diagnosis

Additional elements are added to the item Total Planned##Receipts that

do not have the same dimension, for example, quantities and amounts or

amounts and ratios.

Procedure

Check your definition.

If you the addition is still meaningful, you can hide the dimensionality

of one or both partial outputs with the operator 'NODIM'. The system

then understands this partial output as a dimensionless number.</b>

Please guide me.

Thanks

Hi dear, could you please let us know HOW are you using the NODIM function in your formula ?

(you have to use it for each operand...)

Bye,

Roberto

Hi Roberto and Bhanu,

Thanks for your reply. Now I have no errorn when I set up the formula as

=NODIM(Po Planned)+ NODIM(PO Confirmed)+NODIM(Out standig).

Thanks for your suggestion

Hi Reddy,

Where did you use the NODIM operator? You would need to use it for the individual KFs, not just the result.

Hope this helps...
