  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDME129 - No Description available ?

    The SAP error message RSDME129 ("No Description available") typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when there is an issue related to the metadata or description of a characteristic, key figure, or InfoObject. This error can arise due to various reasons, such as missing descriptions in the InfoObject definitions or issues with the data model.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Descriptions: The most common cause is that the InfoObject or characteristic does not have a description defined in the system.
    2. Transport Issues: If the InfoObject was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the description might not have been included in the transport request.
    3. Data Model Issues: There may be inconsistencies or errors in the data model that prevent the system from retrieving the description.
    4. Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the descriptions of certain InfoObjects.

    Solutions:

    1. Check InfoObject Definitions:

      • Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and check the InfoObject in question. Ensure that a description is provided for the InfoObject.
      • If the description is missing, add it and activate the InfoObject.
    2. Transport Check:

      • If the InfoObject was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary components, including descriptions, were included in the transport request.
    3. Data Model Validation:

      • Validate the data model to ensure there are no inconsistencies. You can use transaction RSA1 to check the data model and perform any necessary repairs.
    4. Authorization Check:

      • Ensure that the user encountering the error has the appropriate authorizations to view the InfoObject descriptions. This may involve checking user roles and authorizations in the system.
