• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message R7506 - InfoObject &1, version &2 being deleted, (basic char. &3 not found) ?

  The SAP error message R7506 indicates that a specific InfoObject (characteristic) is being deleted because a basic characteristic that it depends on cannot be found. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when there are inconsistencies in the data model or when objects have been deleted or modified without proper adjustments to dependent objects.
  Cause:
  
  Deletion of Basic Characteristic: The basic characteristic (in this case, &3) that the InfoObject (&1) depends on has been deleted or is no longer available in the system.
  Inconsistent Data Model: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to InfoObjects, can lead to inconsistencies if dependent objects are not updated accordingly.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), and the transport did not include all necessary objects, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Deletion: Verify if the basic characteristic (&3) has indeed been deleted. You can do this by checking the InfoObject catalog in the SAP BW system.
  Restore the Basic Characteristic: If the basic characteristic was deleted by mistake, you may need to restore it from a backup or re-create it if possible.
  Adjust Dependencies: If the basic characteristic is no longer needed, you may need to adjust the InfoObject (&1) to remove its dependency on the deleted characteristic.
  Transport Consistency: Ensure that all necessary objects are included in your transport requests. If you suspect that a transport issue caused the problem, you may need to re-transport the missing objects.
  Check for Active Versions: Make sure that the InfoObject and its dependencies are active and correctly versioned in the system.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to check InfoObjects and their dependencies.
  InfoObject Maintenance: Use transaction RSD1 to maintain InfoObjects and check their properties.
  Transport Management: Use transaction SE09 or SE10 to manage transport requests and ensure all necessary objects are included.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message, as there may be specific fixes or recommendations provided by SAP.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or BW team for further investigation and resolution.
