This message is not necessarily an error but rather an informational message indicating that the generation process has been initiated for a specific Easy Query.
  Cause:
  
  Query Generation Process: The message is triggered when the system starts the generation process for an Easy Query. This can happen when a query is executed or when changes are made to the query definition.
  Performance Issues: If the generation process takes too long, it may lead to performance issues or timeouts.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the BW system or the underlying data model that could affect the generation process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Monitor the Process: Check the status of the query generation process. If it is taking too long, you may need to investigate further.
  Check for Locks: Ensure that there are no locks on the objects involved in the query generation. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
  Review Query Definition: Look into the Easy Query definition for any inconsistencies or issues that may be causing the generation to hang or take longer than expected.
  Performance Tuning: If performance is an issue, consider optimizing the underlying data model, aggregations, or indexes to improve query performance.
  System Logs: Check the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any related error messages or warnings that could provide more context on the issue.
  Re-Generate the Query: If the query generation fails, you can try to manually regenerate the query using the Query Designer.
  
  Related Information:
