• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDS_ACCESS045 - Hierarchy ID &1 is unknown (missing in table RSOSOHIE) ?

  The SAP error message RSDS_ACCESS045 indicates that the system is unable to find a specified hierarchy ID in the table RSOSOHIE. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when dealing with hierarchies in InfoObjects.
  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors:
  
  Missing Hierarchy: The specified hierarchy ID does not exist in the system, possibly due to deletion or incorrect configuration.
  Transport Issues: If the hierarchy was transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly or completely.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data or metadata, leading to the hierarchy not being recognized.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the hierarchy.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Hierarchy ID: Verify that the hierarchy ID specified in the error message is correct. You can do this by checking the relevant InfoObject in the SAP BW system.
  
  
  Recreate the Hierarchy: If the hierarchy is indeed missing, you may need to recreate it. This can be done in the SAP BW modeling tools:
  
  Go to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSD1).
  Find the InfoObject associated with the hierarchy and check the hierarchy settings.
  Recreate the hierarchy if necessary.
  
  
  
  Transport Check: If the hierarchy was supposed to be transported from another system, check the transport logs to ensure that the transport was successful and that all necessary objects were included.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks in the BW system to identify and resolve any inconsistencies. You can use transaction RSA1 to access the Data Warehousing Workbench and perform checks.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the hierarchy. You can check this in the user roles and authorizations.
  
  
  Table RSOSOHIE: If you have access to the database, you can directly check the contents of the RSOSOHIE table to see if the hierarchy ID exists. If it does not, you may need to investigate further why it is missing.
