• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_B4H_IPRO2ADSO121 - Metadata inconsistency for cube &1 ?

  The SAP error message RS_B4H_IPRO2ADSO121 indicates a metadata inconsistency for a cube in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA. This error typically arises when there is a mismatch or inconsistency between the metadata definitions of the InfoCube and the associated ADSO (Advanced DataStore Object).
  Cause:
  
  Metadata Mismatch: The structure of the InfoCube and the ADSO may not match. This can happen if there have been changes made to the ADSO or InfoCube without proper synchronization.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as adding or removing fields, can lead to inconsistencies if the corresponding changes are not reflected in both the InfoCube and the ADSO.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoCube or ADSO was transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies due to missing or incomplete transport requests.
  Activation Issues: If the ADSO or InfoCube was not activated properly after changes, it can lead to metadata inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Metadata: Verify the metadata definitions of both the InfoCube and the ADSO. Ensure that the fields, data types, and structures match.
  Re-activate Objects: Try re-activating the ADSO and the InfoCube. This can often resolve inconsistencies.
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  Find the ADSO and InfoCube, and activate them again.
  
  
  Repair Metadata: Use the transaction RS_B4H_METADATA_REPAIR to repair the metadata inconsistencies. This transaction can help synchronize the metadata between the InfoCube and the ADSO.
  Check Transport Logs: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate what went wrong.
  Consistency Check: Use the consistency check tools available in SAP BW to identify and fix any inconsistencies in the data model.
  Consult SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
