ABAP / Query to Identify Duplicate Rows in Cube

Question

Dear Experts,
We have a situation were some of our Cubes (due to compression and varying levels of forceful reloads) now contain duplicate rows.
What I need to know is :-
1) Is there a way to identify duplicate rows where one of the characteristics are different but all key figures are identical.
2) If so what is easier to achieve, ABAP routine/program or Query
3) If ABAP suggestions on how to code such
4) If query same.
What I need it to do is tell me which ClaimNo record (Primary Key) has duplicates and what characteristic has caused it.
I know I am asking for a lot but I really need to get this resolved as it's causing mayhem and trying to pinpoint these records is both time consuming and painful.  What we are looking to do with the records is establish how they became duplicated so we can prevent this happening in the future.
Your help as always much appreciated.
Regards
Craig

Hi Craig,
My previous answer can find out what all cubes and data targets have been loaded based on a request.
Actually for your query. The following information will be surely useful.
tables: /BIC/**(source ) , /BIC**(target)
parameter : fieldname like /BIC/****-fieldname ( In ur case the it can be primary key or Duplicate entry )
data: itab_source  like /BIC/*** occurs 0 with header line,
      itab_destination like /BIC/*** occurs 0 with header line.
data: wa_itab_destination like line of itab_destination.
select *
  from /BIC/*****
  into corresponding fields of table itab_source.
  where fieldname = fieldname.
******Include your piece of code which is for deleting records
Delete adjacent duplicates from itab_source comparing characteristic ( i.e  duplicate characteristic you specified)
****Use this to delete the ODS Data before writing into it
call function 'RSDRI_ODSO_DELETE_RFC'
  exporting
    i_odsobject  = 'ODS Name'
    i_delete_all = 'X'.
if sy-subrc = 0.
  loop at itab_source.
    move-corresponding itab_source to itab_destination.
    append itab_destination.
  endloop.
  modify /BIC/*** from table itab_destination[].   “target being written from itab.
  commit work.
endif.
Please Reward points if this helps really.
