• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSCV077 - Metadata inconsistency in InfoCube &1. Test not carried out ?

  The SAP error message RSCV077 indicates a metadata inconsistency in an InfoCube. This error typically arises when there are discrepancies between the metadata definitions in the InfoCube and the actual data or structure in the underlying database. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Metadata Changes: Changes made to the InfoCube structure (like adding or removing characteristics, key figures, or dimensions) without properly adjusting the underlying database can lead to inconsistencies.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoCube was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production) and the transport did not include all necessary objects or was not executed correctly, inconsistencies can occur.
  Data Load Issues: If there were issues during data loading processes (like failed loads or incomplete data), this can also lead to inconsistencies.
  Manual Changes: Direct changes made to the database tables or structures outside of the SAP environment can cause discrepancies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Metadata: Use transaction code RSA1 to access the Data Warehousing Workbench. Navigate to the InfoCube and check the metadata definitions. Ensure that they match the expected structure.
  Repair Metadata: If inconsistencies are found, you may need to repair the metadata. This can often be done by reactivating the InfoCube. Right-click on the InfoCube in RSA1 and select "Activate" or "Repair".
  Consistency Check: Use transaction RSCUSTV10 to perform a consistency check on the InfoCube. This can help identify specific issues that need to be addressed.
  Rebuild InfoCube: In some cases, it may be necessary to rebuild the InfoCube. This involves deleting the InfoCube and recreating it, which should be done with caution and typically in a development environment first.
  Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included and correctly transported.
  Data Load Monitoring: Review the data load processes to ensure that they are completing successfully and that there are no errors in the data loading logs.
