SAP S/4HANA Error 2838: Non-Scalar Parameter in SQLScript
Description
This error indicates that a built-in SQLScript function or operator received a non-scalar value (e.g., a table, array, or multiple-row result set) where a single, scalar value was expected. It commonly occurs during the execution of HANA stored procedures, functions, or calculation views when data types or structures are mismatched.

A subquery used as an argument for a scalar parameter returned more than one row or column, violating the requirement for a single value.
Incorrect Variable Assignment
A non-scalar value was attempted to be assigned to a scalar variable within SQLScript code, resulting in a type mismatch during execution.
