• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDU_REPART475 - Delete view using fact tables ?

  The SAP error message RSDU_REPART475 typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an attempt to delete a view that is based on fact tables. This error indicates that the system is unable to delete the view because it is still linked to the underlying fact tables.
  Cause:
  
  Dependency on Fact Tables: The view you are trying to delete is dependent on one or more fact tables. In SAP BW, views can be created based on InfoProviders, and if these InfoProviders are fact tables, the system will prevent deletion to maintain data integrity.
  Active Queries or Reports: There may be active queries or reports that are using the view, which can also prevent deletion.
  Data Model Integrity: SAP BW enforces data model integrity, and deleting a view that is still in use can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Before attempting to delete the view, check for any dependencies. You can do this by:
  
  Using transaction code RSRT to see if any queries are using the view.
  Checking the InfoObjects and InfoProviders that are linked to the view.
  
  
  
  Deactivate Queries: If there are active queries or reports using the view, deactivate or delete them first. You can do this in the Query Designer or by using transaction RSRT.
  
  
  Remove Associations: If the view is associated with other objects, you may need to remove those associations before you can delete the view.
  
  
  Use Transaction Code: Use transaction code RSA1 to navigate to the Data Warehousing Workbench, find the view, and check its properties and dependencies.
  
  
  Delete the View: Once you have ensured that there are no dependencies, you can proceed to delete the view.
  
  
  Check for Locks: Ensure that there are no locks on the objects that might prevent deletion. You can check for locks using transaction SM12.
