How To Fix RS2HANA_VIEW030 - Check external SAP HANA view for BW object consistency

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RS2HANA_VIEW - HANA Views for BW Objects

• Message number: 030

• Message text: Check external SAP HANA view for BW object consistency

&DESCRIPTION&
This check is restricted to the external SAP HANA views of the SAP HANA
content package specified in transaction SPRO.
The external SAP HANA view and corresponding authorization objects are
checked for the BW object.
If the external SAP HANA View should exist according to the metadata
information of the object, the existence of the external SAP HANA view
and the consistency of the latter with the current metadata are checked.
Example: A user has modified the external SAP HANA view by adding a
measure to the view. This would make the BW object and the corresponding
external SAP HANA view inconsistent.
If the external SAP HANA view should not exist, the existence of the
external SAP HANA view is checked.
BW authorizations for the BW object are also checked to see if all
necessary SAP HANA privileges are in place. This check does not evaluate
if the values of the BW authorizations have been modified however. The
table with the authorization information for the SAP HANA privileges
therefore needs to be updated.

How to fix this error?

The repair function will delete or re-deploy the external SAP HANA view
and the corresponding SAP HANA privileges according to the current
settings of the BW objects.

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

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS2HANA_VIEW030 - Check external SAP HANA view for BW object consistency ?

  The SAP error message RS2HANA_VIEW030 indicates that there is an issue with the consistency of an external SAP HANA view that is being used in a BW (Business Warehouse) object. This error typically arises when there are discrepancies between the BW object and the underlying HANA view, which can occur due to various reasons such as changes in the HANA view, missing fields, or incorrect mappings.
  Cause
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  Changes in the HANA View: If the HANA view has been modified (e.g., fields added, removed, or renamed) after the BW object was created, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  Missing Fields: The BW object may reference fields that no longer exist in the HANA view.
  Data Type Mismatches: If the data types of fields in the HANA view do not match those expected by the BW object, it can cause errors.
  Incorrect Mapping: The mapping between the BW object and the HANA view may not be correctly defined.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the RS2HANA_VIEW030 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the HANA View: 
  
  Open the HANA view in the HANA Studio or Web IDE and verify its structure. Ensure that all fields referenced by the BW object are present and correctly defined.
  
  
  
  Validate the BW Object:
  
  In the BW system, navigate to the relevant BW object (e.g., InfoProvider, CompositeProvider) and check its settings. Ensure that the mappings to the HANA view are correct.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the BW Object:
  
  If changes have been made to the HANA view, you may need to re-activate the BW object to refresh its metadata. This can often resolve inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Use the BW Modeling Tools:
  
  Utilize the BW Modeling Tools in Eclipse to check for inconsistencies. The tools can provide insights into any discrepancies between the BW object and the HANA view.
  
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues:
  
  If the HANA view or BW object was transported from one system to another, ensure that all dependencies were correctly transported.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of BW and HANA you are using, as there may be known issues or additional steps required.
