How To Fix RSAR399 - Source system &1 is a dummy. Object not executable


SAP Error Message - Details

  • Message type: E = Error

  • Message class: RSAR - Data Transfer and Metadata Maintenance

  • Message number: 399

  • Message text: Source system &1 is a dummy. Object not executable

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    The source system &V1& is only a dummy for the source system &V2&. It
    can only be used for modeling source-system-dependent scenarios. The
    loading of data is very restricted:
    Full loading processes can only be performed under the following
    conditions:
    The structures of the DataSource in the original source system &V2& and
    the source system dummy &V1& are identical.
    The DataSource is active in the dummy and the original system.
    The DataSource has the the same object type (RSDS or ISFS) in the
    original and the dummy.
    Data can be updated using a data transfer process from the PSA of the
    dummy.
    Init and delta loading processes cannot be performed due to the
    following reasons:
    It is not possible to load different selection conditions in the
    original and dummy systems. The original system is always used for
    loading and it only has one init selection.
    Deltas can only be sent to a BW once. Therefore the same delta cannot be
    loaded from the original system and the dummy system.

    System Response

    The function is canceled.

    How to fix this error?

    Execute the action on the original system &V2& .

    Procedure for System Administrators

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR399 - Source system &1 is a dummy. Object not executable ?

    The SAP error message RSAR399 indicates that the source system specified is a "dummy" system, meaning it is not a valid or active source system for data extraction. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when trying to execute a data extraction or data load from a source system that is not properly configured or is inactive.

    Cause:

    1. Dummy Source System: The source system is defined as a dummy in the SAP BW system. This can happen if the source system was created for testing purposes or if it has not been properly configured.
    2. Inactive Source System: The source system may be inactive or not connected to the BW system.
    3. Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the source system in the BW system, such as missing or incorrect settings.
    4. Transport Issues: If the source system was recently transported, it may not have been set up correctly in the target system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Source System Configuration:

      • Go to the SAP BW system and check the configuration of the source system in transaction RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench).
      • Ensure that the source system is correctly defined and is not marked as a dummy.
    2. Activate Source System:

      • If the source system is inactive, activate it. You can do this in the same transaction (RSA1) by selecting the source system and activating it.
    3. Review Connection Settings:

      • Verify the connection settings for the source system. Ensure that the connection parameters (like RFC destination) are correctly set up and that the source system is reachable.
    4. Check for Transport Issues:

      • If the source system was recently transported, ensure that all necessary objects and configurations were transported correctly. You may need to reconfigure the source system in the target environment.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific source system you are working with for any additional configuration steps or troubleshooting tips.
    6. Contact SAP Support:

      • If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • RSA1: Data Warehousing Workbench
      • RSC1: Source System Maintenance
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address known issues related to source systems and dummy configurations.
    • Documentation: Review SAP BW documentation for best practices on configuring and managing source systems.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the RSAR399 error and ensure that your source system is properly configured for data extraction.
