  The SAP error message RSAR382 indicates that a DataSource is not linked to an InfoSource in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) data extraction. This error typically arises when you are trying to extract data from a DataSource that has not been properly configured or linked to the corresponding InfoSource.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Link: The DataSource is not linked to the InfoSource in the BW system. This can happen if the DataSource was created but not assigned to the InfoSource.
  Incorrect Configuration: The DataSource might have been incorrectly configured or not activated.
  Transport Issues: If the DataSource was transported from another system, the link may not have been established correctly in the target system.
  Changes in DataSource: If changes were made to the DataSource after it was created, the link to the InfoSource may need to be re-established.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSAR382 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check DataSource Configuration:
  
  Go to the DataSource in the SAP BW system (transaction code RSA1).

  Activate the InfoSource:
