• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSD_GEO126 - Characteristic &1: HANA Spatial table does not exist ?

  The SAP error message RSD_GEO126 indicates that a specific HANA Spatial table associated with a characteristic does not exist. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA when working with geospatial data.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Spatial Table: The primary cause of this error is that the HANA Spatial table that is supposed to be linked to the characteristic does not exist in the HANA database.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the data model or the characteristic settings that leads to the system looking for a non-existent table.
  Data Model Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model, such as deletions or renaming of tables, this could lead to the error.
  Transport Issues: If the data model was transported from one system to another, the spatial tables may not have been included in the transport.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Table Existence: Verify if the spatial table exists in the HANA database. You can do this by using HANA Studio or SQL commands to query the relevant schema.
  SELECT * FROM <schema_name>.<spatial_table_name>;
  
  Recreate the Table: If the table does not exist, you may need to recreate it. This can involve running the necessary scripts or data models that generate the spatial table.
  Review Data Model: Check the data model configuration in SAP BW or HANA to ensure that the characteristic is correctly set up to point to the right spatial table.
  Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects, including spatial tables, were included in the transport request.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to spatial data handling in HANA to ensure that all prerequisites and configurations are met.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  HANA Studio: Familiarize yourself with HANA Studio for managing and querying spatial data.
  SAP BW Documentation: Review the SAP BW documentation for best practices on handling geospatial data and characteristics.
  Community Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or support channels for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the RSD_GEO126 error and implement a solution to resolve it.
