• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAWBN_SER002 - Selected object is not a valid target of DTP ?

  The SAP error message RSAWBN_SER002 indicates that the selected object is not a valid target for a Data Transfer Process (DTP). This error typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the source and target objects in the DTP configuration, or when the target object is not properly defined or activated.
  Causes of the Error
  
  
  Invalid Target Object: The target object specified in the DTP may not be valid. This could happen if the target InfoObject or InfoProvider has been deleted or is not active.
  
  
  Incompatible Data Structures: The structure of the source and target objects may not match. For example, if the source is an InfoCube and the target is a DataStore Object (DSO) that does not have compatible fields.
  
  
  Incorrect DTP Configuration: The DTP may not be configured correctly, such as having the wrong target type or settings that do not align with the target object.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the DTP was transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies in the target object definitions between the systems.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the target object.
  
  
  Solutions
  
  
  Check Target Object: Verify that the target object specified in the DTP exists and is active. You can do this by navigating to the target InfoProvider in the SAP BW system.
  
  
  Validate Data Structures: Ensure that the data structures of the source and target objects are compatible. Check the fields and data types to ensure they match.
  
  
  Review DTP Configuration: Open the DTP in the SAP BW system and review its configuration. Make sure that the target type is correctly set and that all necessary settings are properly configured.
  
  
  Recreate DTP: If the DTP configuration seems to be corrupted or incorrect, consider deleting the DTP and recreating it from scratch.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the DTP has the necessary authorizations to access both the source and target objects.
  
  
  Transport Consistency: If the DTP was transported, check for any inconsistencies in the target object definitions between the source and target systems. You may need to re-transport the target object or adjust its configuration.
