• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDDTPS_HIER104 - Hierarchy deleted ?

  The SAP error message RSDDTPS_HIER104 indicates that a hierarchy has been deleted in the system. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when a query or report is trying to access a hierarchy that no longer exists.
  Cause:
  
  Hierarchy Deletion: The most straightforward cause is that the hierarchy has been deleted from the InfoObject or the data model.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to InfoObjects or InfoProviders, can lead to this error if the hierarchy is no longer valid.
  Transport Issues: If the hierarchy was deleted in one environment (e.g., development) and not transported correctly to another environment (e.g., production), it may lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Hierarchy Existence: Verify if the hierarchy still exists in the InfoObject. You can do this by navigating to the relevant InfoObject in the SAP BW modeling tools.
  Recreate the Hierarchy: If the hierarchy was deleted and is still needed, you may need to recreate it. This can be done through the hierarchy maintenance transaction (e.g., RSD1).
  Update Queries: If the hierarchy is no longer needed, you may need to update any queries or reports that reference the deleted hierarchy to remove or replace it.
  Transport Corrections: If the issue is due to transport inconsistencies, ensure that the hierarchy is correctly transported across environments.
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that there are no dependencies on the deleted hierarchy in other objects or queries.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSD1 (to manage InfoObjects) and RSRT (to run queries) to investigate and manage hierarchies.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to hierarchy management in BW.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP BW documentation for best practices on managing hierarchies and InfoObjects.
