• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MCW_AA124 - The field information on query &-& is not (no longer) available! ?

  The SAP error message MCW_AA124, which states "The field information on query &-& is not (no longer) available," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when a query is trying to access field information that is either missing or has been changed in the underlying data model.
  Causes:
  
  Field Deletion or Renaming: The field that the query is trying to access may have been deleted or renamed in the InfoProvider or data source.
  Changes in Data Model: Changes in the underlying data model, such as modifications to InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or queries, can lead to this error.
  Transport Issues: If the query was transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies in the data model between the source and target systems.
  Query Invalidation: The query may have become invalid due to changes in the underlying data structure or InfoProvider.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Query Definition: Open the query in the Query Designer and verify if all fields used in the query are still available in the InfoProvider. If any fields are missing, you may need to adjust the query.
  Rebuild the Query: If the query is significantly affected, consider rebuilding it from scratch or using a backup version if available.
  Check InfoProvider: Ensure that the InfoProvider (e.g., InfoCube, DSO) has not been modified in a way that affects the query. You may need to check the data model for any changes.
  Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects were transported correctly and that the target system is consistent with the source system.
  Activate Query: Sometimes, simply reactivating the query in the Query Designer can resolve the issue.
  Check Authorization: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the fields in the query.
