How To Fix CLBW_META019 - No Entry in the field "Basis InfoObject/Source" (see long text)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CLBW_META - For Generating Metadata

• Message number: 019

• Message text: No Entry in the field "Basis InfoObject/Source" (see long text)

What causes this issue?

When creating an InfoSource for classification or configuration data in
the BW system, the key fields of the basic InfoSource that are linked to
key fields of a OLTP basic DataSource are transferred into the
extraction structure. This only occurs if the key fields of this OLTP
basic DataSource have the same names as the key fields of the cl
assification DataSource.
For example: a classification DataSource in the OLTP system 1CL_OMAT001
has the same key field as its corresponding basic DataSource (MATNR).
This basic DataSource is linked to a basic InfoSource from the BW system
via the key field assignment, for example, MATNR <-> 0MATERIAL. In the
extraction structure of the classification InfoSource to be generated,
the key field 0MATERIAL is transferred. The prerequisite for this is
that the basic InfoSource or basic InfoObject that you entered exists in
the BW system and that it is linked with a basic DataSource from the
OLTP system. This basic DataSource has to correspond with the current
classification or configuration DataSource via key fields of the same
name. If these prerequisites are not fulfilled, the system generates a
proposal for the key fields of the extraction structure. The key fields
proposed by the system can be overwritten later, as needed.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

You have not filled in the field "Basic InfoObject/Source" . For this
reason, the system cannot transfer key fields from the structure of the
basic InfoSource (transaction data) or the basic InfoObject (master
data. Please fill in the field. You can also ignore the message and
continue with the transaction. In this case, the system generates
proposals for the key fields that you can then overwrite as needed.

  The SAP error message CLBW_META019 indicates that there is no entry in the field "Basis InfoObject/Source" for a specific object in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This error typically arises when you are trying to create or modify a DataSource, InfoObject, or other related objects in BW, and the system cannot find the necessary metadata or configuration.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The most common cause is that the InfoObject or DataSource you are trying to work with has not been properly configured or does not exist in the system.
  Incorrect Settings: There may be incorrect settings in the DataSource or InfoObject that prevent the system from identifying the source.
  Transport Issues: If the object was transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly, leading to missing entries.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the required InfoObject or DataSource.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Configuration: Verify that the InfoObject or DataSource is correctly configured. Ensure that the "Basis InfoObject/Source" field is populated with the correct value.
  Create or Adjust the InfoObject: If the InfoObject does not exist, you may need to create it. If it exists but is not configured correctly, adjust the settings accordingly.
  Transport Check: If the object was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary components were included and that there were no errors during the transport.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the InfoObject or DataSource. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or help files related to the specific object you are working with for additional guidance.
