  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message R3102 - Name of transfer structure & in BW does not match name of srce systm & ?

    The SAP error message R3102 indicates that there is a mismatch between the name of the transfer structure in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) and the name of the source system from which data is being transferred. This error typically occurs during data extraction or data loading processes when the system is unable to find a corresponding transfer structure for the specified source system.

    Cause:

    1. Mismatch in Naming: The transfer structure defined in BW does not match the name of the source system as defined in the source system's configuration.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The source system may not be properly configured in BW, or the transfer structure may not have been created or activated correctly.
    3. Transport Issues: If the transfer structure was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process.
    4. Changes in Source System: If there have been changes in the source system (like renaming or deleting the transfer structure), it can lead to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check Transfer Structure: Verify that the transfer structure exists in BW and that its name matches the expected name for the source system. You can do this by navigating to the Data Warehousing Workbench in BW and checking the transfer structure settings.

    2. Source System Configuration: Ensure that the source system is correctly configured in BW. Check the settings in the RSA1 transaction (Administrator Workbench) to confirm that the source system is properly defined.

    3. Recreate Transfer Structure: If the transfer structure is missing or incorrectly defined, you may need to recreate it. This can be done by using the DataSource maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) to create or modify the DataSource and its associated transfer structure.

    4. Transport Check: If the transfer structure was transported, check the transport logs for any errors or issues. You may need to re-transport the transfer structure or manually create it in the target system.

    5. Consistency Check: Run consistency checks in BW to ensure that all objects are correctly defined and activated. This can help identify any discrepancies.

    6. Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to this error message for any specific guidance or updates that may apply to your version of SAP BW.
