• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_B4H_SOURCE_APD027 - Query used in APD process not set as InfoProvider. ?

  The SAP error message RS_B4H_SOURCE_APD027 indicates that a query used in an Analysis Process Designer (APD) process is not set as an InfoProvider. This typically occurs when the query you are trying to use in your APD is not properly configured to be recognized as an InfoProvider in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) system.
  Cause:
  
  Query Not Set as InfoProvider: The query you are trying to use in the APD process is not marked as an InfoProvider. In SAP BW, only certain objects can be used as InfoProviders, and queries need to be explicitly set up for this purpose.
  Query Deactivation: The query might be deactivated or not properly activated in the system.
  Incorrect Query Type: The query type may not be compatible with the APD process you are trying to execute.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing the query from being recognized as an InfoProvider.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Set Query as InfoProvider:
  
  Go to the Query Designer (transaction code: RSRT).
  Open the query that you are trying to use in the APD.
  Ensure that the query is set as an InfoProvider. This can usually be done in the properties of the query.
  Save and activate the query.
  
  
  
  Check Query Activation:
  
  Ensure that the query is activated. You can do this in the Query Designer by checking the activation status.
  If it is not activated, activate it and try running the APD process again.
  
  
  
  Review Query Type:
  
  Make sure that the query type is compatible with the APD process. For example, some queries may not be suitable for certain types of data extraction or processing.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Verify that you have the necessary authorizations to access the query and that there are no restrictions preventing it from being used in the APD.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on how to configure queries as InfoProviders and any additional settings that may be required.
