SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSAR - Data Transfer and Metadata Maintenance

• Message number: 436

• Message text: Reference to transfer structure & not available. No activation possible.

What causes this issue?

Transfer structure &V1& should be transported into this system.
However, no DataSource mapping refers to this transfer structure.

System Response

The transfer structure was not activated or deleted.

How to fix this error?

Ensure that DataSource mapping, with a reference to the transfer
structure &V1& is on the same transport request. Use the transport
connection to create a consistent request.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR436 - Reference to transfer structure & not available. No activation possible. ?

  The SAP error message RSAR436 ("Reference to transfer structure & not available. No activation possible.") typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an issue with the transfer structure that is being referenced in a data transfer process (DTP). This error indicates that the system cannot find the transfer structure that is required for the data transfer.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Transfer Structure: The transfer structure that is referenced in the DTP may not exist or may have been deleted.
  Inactive Transfer Structure: The transfer structure exists but is not activated. Inactive transfer structures cannot be used in data transfer processes.
  Transport Issues: If the transfer structure was transported from another system, it may not have been properly activated in the target system.
  Data Source Changes: Changes to the data source or the underlying InfoObject may lead to inconsistencies with the transfer structure.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Transfer Structure:
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  Navigate to the relevant InfoSource or DataSource and check if the transfer structure exists.
  If it does not exist, you may need to recreate it.
  
  
  
  Activate Transfer Structure:
  
  If the transfer structure exists but is inactive, activate it.
  You can do this by selecting the transfer structure in RSA1 and choosing the "Activate" option.
  
  
  
  Recreate Transfer Structure:
  
  If the transfer structure is missing or corrupted, you may need to recreate it.
  This can be done by going to the DataSource and selecting the option to create a new transfer structure.
  
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues:
  
  If the transfer structure was recently transported, ensure that all related objects were transported correctly and activated in the target system.
  
  
  
  Review Data Source:
  
  Check if there have been any changes to the DataSource or InfoObjects that could affect the transfer structure.
  If changes were made, you may need to adjust the transfer structure accordingly.
