SAP BW InfoCubes have a maximum limit of 233 key figures. This is a hard technical constraint in the system. 254 is a common byte limit but doesn't apply here. The other numbers are incorrect.
SAP BW InfoCubes have a documented technical limit of 233 key figures, not the more commonly guessed round number 254/255. This oddly specific number arises because an InfoCube's fact table is limited to a maximum of 255 total fields, but a chunk of that budget is consumed by SAP-generated technical/administrative fields (e.g., request ID, package ID, and other overhead columns in the fact table structure) before user-defined key figures are counted, leaving 233 as the maximum for actual key figures. This is a specific, well-known SAP BW technical constraint documented in SAP notes, distinguishing it from the plausible-but-wrong round-number distractors (254, 248, 234).
