• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DBMAN013 - InfoCube &1 is not in "real-time mode". Change to this mode first ?

  The SAP error message DBMAN013 indicates that the InfoCube you are trying to work with is not in "real-time mode." This typically occurs when you are attempting to perform operations that require the InfoCube to be in real-time mode, such as loading data in real-time or using certain functionalities that depend on real-time data processing.
  Cause:
  
  InfoCube Configuration: The InfoCube is not configured to operate in real-time mode. This can happen if the InfoCube was created without enabling real-time capabilities or if it was previously set to a different mode.
  Data Source Settings: The data source feeding into the InfoCube may not be set up for real-time data extraction.
  Process Chain Settings: If you are using a process chain, it may not be configured to handle real-time data.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the DBMAN013 error, you need to change the InfoCube to "real-time mode." Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Check InfoCube Settings:
  
  Go to the InfoCube in the SAP BW system.
  Check the properties of the InfoCube to see if it is set to "real-time mode."
  
  
  
  Change to Real-Time Mode:
  
  If the InfoCube is not in real-time mode, you will need to change its settings. This can typically be done in the InfoCube maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1).
  Navigate to the InfoCube and look for an option to enable real-time data processing. This may involve changing the InfoCube type or adjusting its settings.
  
  
  
  Adjust Data Source:
  
  Ensure that the data source feeding into the InfoCube is configured for real-time extraction. This may involve setting up a DataSource in the source system to support real-time data transfer.
  
  
  
  Process Chain Configuration:
  
  If you are using a process chain, ensure that it is set up to handle real-time data. You may need to adjust the settings or add specific steps to accommodate real-time data loading.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the InfoCube to ensure that it is now functioning in real-time mode and that the error message no longer appears.
