• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDODSO147 - Char. &1 has specific properties but is not contained in DS object &2 ?

  The SAP error message RSDODSO147 indicates that a characteristic (denoted as &1) has specific properties (like being a key figure or having certain attributes) but is not included in the DataStore Object (DSO) or InfoProvider (denoted as &2) that you are trying to work with. This typically occurs during the activation or transport of a DSO or when trying to load data into it.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Characteristic in DSO: The characteristic defined in the data model is not included in the DSO structure. This can happen if the DSO was modified after the characteristic was defined.
  Inconsistent Metadata: There may be inconsistencies between the metadata of the characteristic and the DSO, such as data types or properties that do not match.
  Transport Issues: If the DSO was transported from one system to another, the characteristic may not have been included in the transport request.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check DSO Structure: Go to the DSO definition in the SAP BW system and verify that the characteristic &1 is included in the DSO structure. If it is missing, you may need to add it.
  Adjust Properties: Ensure that the properties of the characteristic (like data type, length, and key status) match the requirements of the DSO. If there are discrepancies, adjust them accordingly.
  Re-activate the DSO: After making changes, try to re-activate the DSO to see if the error persists.
  Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport the characteristic or the DSO.
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that there are no dependencies or other objects that rely on the characteristic that may be causing the issue.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to check the DSO and its characteristics.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation on DataStore Objects and characteristics to understand their properties and how they interact.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a BW expert for further assistance.
