• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDME626 - Error while creating Initial Display Screen ?

  The SAP error message RSDME626, which states "Error while creating Initial Display Screen," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an issue with the configuration or setup of a query or report. This error can arise due to various reasons, including issues with the InfoProvider, query definition, or authorization problems.
  Causes:
  
  Query Definition Issues: The query might be incorrectly defined or might reference objects that do not exist or are not activated.
  InfoProvider Problems: The InfoProvider (like an InfoCube or DSO) may not be properly set up or activated.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data or execute the query.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the underlying data model (like changes in InfoObjects or InfoProviders) that have not been reflected in the query.
  Technical Issues: There could be technical issues with the BW system, such as inconsistencies in the metadata.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Query Definition:
  
  Go to the Query Designer and verify the query definition. Ensure that all InfoObjects and characteristics are correctly defined and activated.
  Check if the query is based on the correct InfoProvider.
  
  
  
  Validate InfoProvider:
  
  Ensure that the InfoProvider (InfoCube, DSO, etc.) is active and contains data. You can check this in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  If the InfoProvider has been recently changed, ensure that the changes are activated.
  
  
  
  Review Authorizations:
  
  Check the user’s authorizations to ensure they have the necessary permissions to access the InfoProvider and execute the query.
  Use transaction SU53 to analyze authorization issues after attempting to run the query.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Model Changes:
  
  If there have been recent changes to the data model, ensure that the query is updated accordingly. You may need to re-activate the query or refresh the metadata.
  
  
  
  Technical Checks:
  
  Check for any inconsistencies in the BW system. You can use transaction RSRV to run checks on the InfoProvider and query.
  Look at the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages that might provide more context.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Query:
  
  If the issue persists, consider recreating the query from scratch to ensure that there are no hidden issues in the original query definition.
