• Message text: Check category ARL. Roles contain objects that do not exist

What causes this issue?

Objects of type 'role' have been found that reference BW objects that
are no longer in the system.
A BW object (query, template or view) has probably been assigned to the
role but then deleted again without being deleted from the role.

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?

Use transaction PFCG in the "menu" tab page to check which BW elements
were assigned to the role.
You can display the details from the context menu. In the Object
Description field, you can find the technical name of the referencing
object, the query name for example.
You can use the object name to check whether the object exists.
Transaction RSRT for query elements or report RS_TEMPLATE_MAINTAIN for
templates might be of use for this.
