  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR698 - Text table & for InfoObject & not found ?

    The SAP error message RSAR698 typically indicates that there is an issue with a text table for an InfoObject that is not found in the system. This can occur in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when trying to access or load data related to InfoObjects that have associated text tables.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Text Table: The text table for the specified InfoObject does not exist in the database. This can happen if the InfoObject was created without a corresponding text table or if the text table was deleted or not activated.
    2. Incorrect InfoObject Configuration: The InfoObject may not be properly configured to have a text table, or there may be inconsistencies in the InfoObject definition.
    3. Transport Issues: If the InfoObject was transported from one system to another, the text table may not have been included in the transport request.
    4. Data Source Issues: If the data source is not correctly set up or if there are issues with the data extraction process, it may lead to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check InfoObject Definition: Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and verify that the InfoObject is correctly defined and that it has a text table associated with it.
    2. Create or Activate Text Table: If the text table does not exist, you may need to create it. If it exists but is not activated, activate it in the InfoObject maintenance.
    3. Transport Check: If the InfoObject was transported, ensure that the transport request included the text table. You may need to re-transport the text table if it was missed.
    4. Data Source Configuration: Check the data source configuration to ensure that it is correctly set up to pull data from the text table.
    5. Check for Errors in Data Load: Review the data load process to identify any errors that may have occurred during the extraction or loading of data related to the InfoObject.

    Related Information:
