• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDD313 - Hierarchy &1 of InfoObject &2 (aggregate &3) does not exist ?

  The SAP error message RSDD313 indicates that a hierarchy for a specific InfoObject does not exist in the context of an aggregate. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when working with aggregates and hierarchies.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Hierarchy: The specified hierarchy for the InfoObject is not defined or has been deleted.
  Incorrect Aggregate Definition: The aggregate may reference a hierarchy that is not available or has not been activated.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoObject or hierarchy was transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as renaming or deleting InfoObjects or hierarchies, can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Hierarchy Definition:
  
  Go to the InfoObject maintenance (transaction RSD1) and check if the hierarchy exists for the specified InfoObject.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Activate Hierarchy:
  
  If the hierarchy exists but is inactive, activate it.
  If it has been deleted, you may need to recreate it based on your requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Aggregate Settings:
  
  Check the aggregate definition (transaction RSD1) to ensure that it correctly references the existing hierarchy.
  If the aggregate is referencing a non-existent hierarchy, update the aggregate to point to the correct hierarchy.
  
  
  
  Transport Check:
  
  If the hierarchy was supposed to be transported from another system, verify that the transport request was completed successfully and that all necessary objects were included.
  
  
  
  Consistency Check:
  
  Run a consistency check on the InfoObject and aggregates to identify any inconsistencies that may need to be resolved.
  
  
  
  Rebuild Aggregates:
  
  If necessary, you can rebuild the aggregates to ensure they are correctly aligned with the current state of the InfoObjects and hierarchies.
