• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSCV440 - InfoObject &1 references basic InfoObject &2 ?

  The SAP error message RSCV440 indicates that there is a reference issue between an InfoObject and its basic InfoObject. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when you are trying to activate or transport InfoObjects that have dependencies on other InfoObjects.
  Cause:
  The error message RSCV440 is triggered when:
  
  An InfoObject (let's call it InfoObject A) is referencing another InfoObject (InfoObject B) that is not properly defined or activated.
  There may be inconsistencies in the InfoObject definitions, such as missing attributes or incorrect settings.
  The basic InfoObject (InfoObject B) might have been deleted or is in a state that does not allow it to be referenced.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSCV440 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check InfoObject Definitions:
  
  Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and check the definitions of both InfoObject A and InfoObject B.
  Ensure that InfoObject B is correctly defined and activated.
  
  
  
  Activate Basic InfoObject:
  
  If InfoObject B is not activated, activate it. You can do this by selecting the InfoObject and choosing the "Activate" option.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Review the dependencies of InfoObject A. Make sure that all referenced InfoObjects are valid and activated.
  
  
  
  Re-transport InfoObjects:
  
  If you are working in a transport environment, ensure that the transport requests for both InfoObjects are correctly sequenced and that InfoObject B is included in the transport before InfoObject A.
  
  
  
  Check for Deletions:
  
  Ensure that InfoObject B has not been deleted or marked for deletion. If it has, you may need to restore it or create a new version.
  
  
  
  Consistency Check:
  
  Run consistency checks in the BW system to identify any other potential issues with InfoObjects. You can use transaction RSCUSTV10 for this purpose.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If the issue persists, consult SAP documentation or support for more specific guidance related to your version of SAP BW.
