• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AQ189 - The InfoSet is not defined using a logical database ?

  The SAP error message AQ189 indicates that the InfoSet you are trying to use is not defined with a logical database. This typically occurs when you attempt to create or execute a report using an InfoSet that does not have a corresponding logical database defined in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Logical Database: The InfoSet you are trying to use is not linked to any logical database. Logical databases are used in SAP to provide a structured way to access data from the database.
  Incorrect InfoSet Configuration: The InfoSet may not have been properly configured to use a logical database.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check InfoSet Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SQ02 (InfoSet Query).
  Select the InfoSet that is causing the error and check its properties.
  Ensure that a logical database is assigned to the InfoSet. If not, you may need to create a new InfoSet or modify the existing one to link it to a logical database.
  
  
  
  Create a New InfoSet:
  
  If the InfoSet is not defined correctly, you can create a new InfoSet using transaction SQ02.
  Define the InfoSet and link it to an appropriate logical database.
  
  
  
  Use an Existing InfoSet:
  
  If you are trying to use a custom InfoSet, consider using a standard InfoSet that is already defined with a logical database.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the InfoSet and the logical database.
