• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR027 - No entry for original source system &1 for old objects ?

  The SAP error message RSAR027 indicates that there is no entry for the specified original source system in the context of old objects. This typically occurs in the context of data extraction or data transfer processes, particularly when dealing with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) systems.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Source System Configuration: The original source system (indicated by &1 in the error message) is not properly configured in the SAP BW system. This could happen if the source system was deleted or if the configuration was not completed correctly.
  
  
  Old Objects: The error often relates to old data objects that reference a source system that no longer exists or is not recognized by the current configuration.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the source system configuration was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process that led to missing entries.
  
  
  Data Source Deactivation: The data source associated with the original source system may have been deactivated or removed.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Source System Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP BW system and check the configuration of the source system. You can do this by navigating to the transaction code RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) and then checking the "Source Systems" section.
  Ensure that the source system is correctly defined and active.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Reactivate the Source System:
  
  If the source system is missing, you may need to recreate it. This involves defining the source system again in the BW system.
  If it exists but is inactive, reactivate it.
  
  
  
  Check Data Sources:
  
  Review the data sources that are associated with the original source system. Ensure that they are correctly configured and active.
  You can check this in the Data Sources section of the Data Warehousing Workbench.
  
  
  
  Delete or Update Old Objects:
  
  If the old objects are no longer needed, consider deleting them. If they are still required, you may need to update their configuration to point to a valid source system.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate what went wrong during the transport process.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
