SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FCOM_PLANNING_CORE - Messages for Package FCOM_PLANNING_CORE

• Message number: 164

• Message text: Couldn't convert the HANA view used by InfoProvider &1 into an HDI view.

What causes this issue?

To enable the Zero Downtime Option of SUM, the system tries to convert
HANA views used by Info Objects and InfoProviders into HDI views. This
only works if the Info Objects and InfoProviders use one of the content
HANA views from package &V3&.
InfoProvider &V1& doesn't use HANA view &V2& from package &V3&. It uses
a different view.

System Response

The system didn't convert the HANA view used by InfoProvider &V1& into
an HDI view.

How to fix this error?

Manually convert the HANA view into an HDI view (see SAP note 2610094 -
Enable Zero Downtime Option of SUM for SAP BPC for S/4 HANA).
Alternatively, if the HANA view is based on a content HANA view, you can
also revert the InfoProvider back to its content InfoProvider. The
content InfoProvider would still use the content HANA view, and the
system then can convert that content HANA view into an HDI view.

Procedure for System Administrators

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