How To Fix NRSCNV131 - Temporary InfoCube &1 already exists (delete)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: NRSCNV - Message class

• Message number: 131

• Message text: Temporary InfoCube &1 already exists (delete)

What causes this issue?

The check on InfoCube &V2& returned an error because an InfoCube called
&V1& already exists. Since the remodeling framework will create a
temporary InfoCube called &V1&, it is necessary to make sure that this
InfoCube does not exist before running the remodeling rule. The reason
for InfoCube &V1& existing could be as follows:
InfoCube &V2& has already been remodeled before, but the remodeling run
did not finish successfully. The temporary InfoCube created during this
previous run was therefore not removed.
InfoCube &V1& is a real InfoCube and was not created as a temporary
InfoCube during a previous remodeling run.

System Response

Activating, scheduling or running the remodeling rule is not possible.

How to fix this error?

If the first of the two cases described above applies, simply delete
temporary InfoCube &V1& in transaction RSDCUBE. If the second case
applies, delete the prefix character used to create a temporary
InfoCube. In the default setting, the prefix character is <ZK>Z</>. You
can change this by opening the Configuration Screen by pressing
<ZK>Configure</>, or choosing <ZK>Remodeling Rule -> Configure</>.

Procedure for System Administrators

A temporary InfoCube created by the remodeling framework can also be
identified by its description, which should look something like this:
<ZK>TEMPORARY CUBE FOR REMODELING OF CUBE <(><<)></> InfoCube <ZK>name>
</>.

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