RQP-DEF-0566 Scope FOR-clause warning when validating

Troubleshooting


Problem

A RQP-DEF-0566 scope (FOR-clause) warning message appears when you validate a report that uses a running aggregate function with a FOR clause. It doesn't make sense why the message appears because the query item expression is valid and the report returns the correct data regardless of the message.

Symptom

QE-DEF-0469
RQP-DEF-0566 The scope (FOR-clause) of the running aggregate for projection#: <n> '<dataitem>' is
not consistent with the ORDER BY of the query.
