• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR681 - InfoObject & found (number of key fields &) ?

  The SAP error message RSAR681 typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an issue with the InfoObject being used in a data transfer process (DTP) or during data extraction. The message indicates that the InfoObject in question has a mismatch in the number of key fields expected versus what is actually defined.
  Cause:
  
  Mismatch in Key Fields: The InfoObject may have been modified, and the number of key fields defined in the InfoObject does not match the number of key fields expected in the data source or target.
  Data Source Changes: If the underlying data source (like an InfoSource or DataSource) has been changed, it may not align with the InfoObject's current structure.
  Inconsistent Metadata: There may be inconsistencies in the metadata between the source and target systems, especially if they have been transported or updated differently.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check InfoObject Definition: Verify the definition of the InfoObject in the SAP BW system. Ensure that the number of key fields defined matches the expected structure.
  Update DataSource: If the DataSource has been modified, ensure that it is updated in the InfoObject and that the DTP is correctly configured to reflect these changes.
  Recreate DTP: If necessary, recreate the Data Transfer Process (DTP) to ensure it aligns with the current structure of the InfoObject and DataSource.
  Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs and ensure that all relevant objects were transported correctly and consistently.
  Check for Active Versions: Ensure that the active version of the InfoObject is being used in the DTP and that there are no inactive versions causing conflicts.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to check InfoObjects and DTPs.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to RSAR681 or similar error messages.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation on InfoObjects and DTPs for best practices in managing and configuring these components.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a BW expert for further assistance.
