• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR421 - Transfer structure & deleted, rc = & ?

  The SAP error message RSAR421 indicates that a transfer structure has been deleted, which is causing issues with data transfer in the SAP system. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an attempt to transfer data using a transfer structure that no longer exists.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted Transfer Structure: The primary cause of this error is that the transfer structure referenced in the data transfer process has been deleted or is no longer available in the system.
  Inconsistent Data Model: Changes in the data model, such as deleting InfoObjects or InfoProviders that are linked to the transfer structure, can lead to this error.
  Transport Issues: If the transfer structure was deleted in one system (e.g., development) and not properly transported to another system (e.g., production), it can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transfer Structure: Verify if the transfer structure mentioned in the error message exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., RSA1 for Data Warehousing Workbench) and checking the transfer structures.
  Recreate Transfer Structure: If the transfer structure has been deleted, you may need to recreate it. This can involve:
  
  Creating a new transfer structure with the same characteristics as the deleted one.
  Ensuring that all necessary InfoObjects are included in the new structure.
  
  
  Adjust Data Transfer Process: If the transfer structure is no longer needed, you may need to adjust the data transfer process (DTP) to point to a valid transfer structure.
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue is related to transport, ensure that all relevant transport requests have been properly imported into the target system.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific error message for additional guidance and troubleshooting steps.
