• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDG_ANL_EXTRACTOR022 - Hierarchy &1 is version dependent but Version is missing ?

  The SAP error message MDG_ANL_EXTRACTOR022 indicates that there is an issue with a hierarchy in the Master Data Governance (MDG) system. Specifically, the error states that the hierarchy is version-dependent, but the version information is missing. This typically occurs when trying to extract or process hierarchical data without specifying the required version.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Version Information: The hierarchy you are trying to access or manipulate is defined to be version-dependent, meaning it requires a specific version to be specified. If this version is not provided, the system cannot determine which version of the hierarchy to use.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the MDG system that are not set up correctly, leading to the absence of version information.
  Data Integrity Issues: The data being processed may not have the necessary version information associated with it, which can happen if the data was not properly maintained or if there are inconsistencies in the data model.
  
  Solution:
  
  Specify the Version: Ensure that when you are trying to access or extract the hierarchy, you provide the required version information. This can usually be done in the selection criteria or parameters of the extraction process.
  Check Hierarchy Configuration: Review the configuration of the hierarchy in the MDG system to ensure that it is set up correctly and that versioning is properly defined.
  Data Validation: Validate the data to ensure that all necessary version information is present. You may need to check the underlying tables or data models to confirm that the versioning is correctly implemented.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for MDG and the specific hierarchy you are working with to understand the requirements for versioning and how to properly configure it.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the extraction process to identify where the version information is being lost or not set.
