• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR667 - Application assignment of global InfoSource & (&) changed ?

  The SAP error message RSAR667 indicates that there has been a change in the application assignment of a global InfoSource. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there are modifications to the InfoSource configuration, which can affect data extraction processes.
  Cause:
  
  Change in InfoSource Configuration: The InfoSource may have been modified, such as changes in the data source, fields, or the application assignment itself.
  Transport Requests: If the InfoSource was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the application assignment may not have been correctly set up in the target system.
  Inconsistent Metadata: There may be inconsistencies in the metadata between the source system and the BW system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Application Assignment: Go to the InfoSource in the SAP BW system and verify the application assignment. Ensure that it is correctly assigned to the relevant application (e.g., a specific data source).
  Reassign InfoSource: If the assignment is incorrect, you may need to reassign the InfoSource to the appropriate application. This can be done in the InfoSource maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1).
  Transport Corrections: If the issue arose due to a transport, ensure that all related objects are transported correctly and that the InfoSource is properly configured in the target system.
  Check for Updates: If there have been recent updates or changes in the source system, ensure that the InfoSource is updated accordingly to reflect those changes.
  Consistency Check: Run consistency checks in the BW system to identify any other potential issues related to InfoSources or data sources.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to manage InfoSources and check their configurations.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to InfoSources and data extraction for more detailed guidance.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to InfoSource changes or the RSAR667 error message.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or BW team for further investigation and resolution.
