How To Fix R7I134 - Key figure &1: referenced unit &2 does not exist in the MultiProvider

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: R7I - InfoProvider

• Message number: 134

• Message text: Key figure &1: referenced unit &2 does not exist in the MultiProvider

What causes this issue?

Key figure &V1&, which is selected in the identification list for the
MultiProvider and is mapped to key figure &V3&, is referenced to unit
&V2&. However, this unit is not in the MultiProvider.

System Response

Example: this situation can cause an error:
Key figure K1 refers to unit U1, K2 also refers to U1.
Both key figures are in an InfoSet (that is involved in the
MultiProvider) as InfoSet field names. K1 as IS___F001 with reference to
U1 as IS___F010 and K2 as IS___F002 with U1 as IS___F011.
If K1 and K2 are transferred to the MultiProvider (for example, from an
InfoCube) and field IS___F001 is mapped to (selected for) K1 and field
IS___F002 is mapped to K2 , only one InfoObject U1 is available for both
units IS___F010 and IS___F011. In this case, the system randomly assigns
one of the two units. If there are different values for the units, an
error will occur (for example, Euro and Dollar values are both
interpreted as Euro).

How to fix this error?

If it is possible that the fields IS___F010 and IS___F011 could have
different units for the data records from the InfoSet, the InfoSet key
figures IS___F001 and IS___F002 must be transferred to the MultiProvider
(instead of being mapped to K1 and K2). Then the "correct" units will
also be available in the list of InfoObjects of the MultiProvider.

Procedure for System Administrators

  The SAP error message R7I134 indicates that there is an issue with a key figure in a MultiProvider where a referenced unit does not exist. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when working with MultiProviders, which are used to combine data from different InfoProviders.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Unit Definition: The unit referenced in the key figure is not defined in the MultiProvider. This can happen if the unit is not included in the underlying InfoProviders or if it has been deleted or not activated.
  Inconsistent Data Model: There may be inconsistencies in the data model where the key figure is expecting a unit that is not available in the context of the MultiProvider.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the MultiProvider may not include the necessary InfoObjects or units that are required for the key figure.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Unit Definition: Verify that the unit referenced in the key figure exists in the underlying InfoProviders. You can do this by checking the InfoObjects in the InfoProviders that make up the MultiProvider.
  Update MultiProvider: If the unit is missing, you may need to add it to the MultiProvider. This can involve modifying the MultiProvider definition to include the necessary InfoObjects.
  Re-activate MultiProvider: After making changes, ensure that you re-activate the MultiProvider to apply the changes.
  Check Key Figure Settings: Review the settings of the key figure to ensure that it is correctly configured to reference the appropriate unit.
  Data Source Consistency: Ensure that all data sources feeding into the MultiProvider are consistent and contain the necessary units.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to manage InfoProviders and MultiProviders.
  InfoObject Maintenance: Use transaction RSD1 to check and maintain InfoObjects, including units.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for detailed information on MultiProviders and key figures, as well as best practices for data modeling in SAP BW.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to this error message.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the R7I134 error and ensure that your MultiProvider is correctly configured to handle the referenced units.
