  The SAP error message RSAR353 indicates that there is an issue with the data transfer process in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) related to InfoObjects. Specifically, it suggests that an InfoObject is compounded with another InfoObject, but the latter is not included in the communication structure for the data transfer.
  Cause:
  
  Compounding Issue: The error arises when an InfoObject (let's call it InfoObject A) is compounded with another InfoObject (InfoObject B), but InfoObject B is not part of the communication structure that is being used for data transfer.
  Data Source Configuration: The data source may not be configured correctly to include all necessary InfoObjects.
  Inconsistent Data Model: There may be inconsistencies in the data model where the compounded InfoObject is not properly defined in the context of the data source.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Communication Structure: Verify the communication structure associated with the data source. Ensure that all compounded InfoObjects are included in the communication structure.
  
  Go to the DataSource in the SAP BW system and check the fields included in the communication structure.
  
  
  
  Modify DataSource: If InfoObject B is missing, you may need to modify the DataSource to include it.
  
  You can do this by going to the DataSource maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and adding the missing InfoObject to the communication structure.
  
  
  
  Re-activate DataSource: After making changes, re-activate the DataSource to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  This can be done in the DataSource maintenance area.
  
  
  
  Check InfoObject Definitions: Ensure that both InfoObjects (A and B) are correctly defined in the InfoObject catalog and that their attributes and characteristics are properly set up.
  
  
  Test Data Transfer: After making the necessary adjustments, test the data transfer process again to see if the error persists.
