• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AQ165 - InfoSet & has not been generated ?

  The SAP error message AQ165, which states "InfoSet & has not been generated," typically occurs when there is an issue with the generation of an InfoSet in SAP. An InfoSet is a collection of fields from one or more database tables that can be used for reporting purposes, particularly in the context of SAP Query.
  Causes:
  
  Missing or Incomplete InfoSet Definition: The InfoSet may not have been properly defined or saved.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to generate or access the InfoSet.
  Technical Issues: There may be underlying technical issues, such as database inconsistencies or problems with the SAP system itself.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoSet was transported from another system, it may not have been properly activated in the target system.
  Changes in Underlying Tables: If the structure of the underlying tables has changed (e.g., fields added or removed), the InfoSet may need to be regenerated.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check InfoSet Definition: Go to the transaction code SQ02 (SAP Query: InfoSet) and verify that the InfoSet is correctly defined. Ensure that all necessary fields and tables are included.
  Generate the InfoSet: In the InfoSet maintenance screen, try to regenerate the InfoSet by selecting the "Generate" option. This can often resolve issues related to incomplete definitions.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and generate InfoSets. This may involve checking roles and profiles assigned to the user.
  Review Transport Logs: If the InfoSet was transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate issues during the transport process.
  Check for Table Changes: If there have been recent changes to the underlying tables, you may need to adjust the InfoSet accordingly. This may involve adding or removing fields in the InfoSet definition.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
