• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDRI_HDB119 - InfoProvider is a dependent provider. Conversion not possible ?

  The SAP error message RSDRI_HDB119 indicates that you are trying to perform a conversion or operation on an InfoProvider that is a dependent provider. Dependent providers in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) are typically those that rely on other providers for their data, such as a CompositeProvider or a VirtualProvider. This means that they cannot be directly queried or converted without considering their dependencies.
  Cause:
  
  Dependent Provider: The InfoProvider you are trying to access is a dependent provider, which means it does not store data independently but relies on other providers for its data.
  Query Execution: The query you are trying to execute or the operation you are trying to perform is not compatible with dependent providers.
  Data Model: The data model may not be set up correctly, or the dependencies between providers are not properly defined.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Provider Type: Verify the type of InfoProvider you are working with. If it is a dependent provider, you need to ensure that you are querying the correct base provider that it depends on.
  Use Base Provider: Instead of querying the dependent provider, try to query the base provider that it depends on. This will allow you to access the data directly.
  Review Query Design: If you are designing a query, ensure that it is compatible with the type of InfoProvider you are using. You may need to adjust the query to work with the underlying data model.
  Data Flow: Check the data flow and dependencies in your BW model. Ensure that all necessary data is being loaded into the base providers before querying the dependent provider.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more information on dependent providers and how to work with them.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Dependent Providers: Understand the concept of dependent providers in SAP BW and how they interact with other providers.

  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to this error message.
  BW Modeling: Familiarize yourself with BW modeling concepts, including how to create and manage InfoProviders, to avoid similar issues in the future.
