• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSLPO_PARTGUI008 - Deleted InfoObject used in compounding; process terminated ?

  The SAP error message RSLPO_PARTGUI008 indicates that a deleted InfoObject is being referenced in a compounding process, which leads to the termination of the process. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when you are trying to execute a query or a report that relies on InfoObjects that have been deleted or are no longer available.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted InfoObject: The primary cause of this error is that one or more InfoObjects that were previously used in a query, report, or data model have been deleted from the system.
  Compounding: Compounding in SAP BW refers to the relationship where one InfoObject is dependent on another. If a parent InfoObject is deleted, any child InfoObjects that depend on it will also cause issues.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to InfoProviders, queries, or transformations, can lead to references to non-existent InfoObjects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Identify the Deleted InfoObject: 
  
  Check the query or report that is causing the error to identify which InfoObject is missing. You may need to look at the query definition or the data model.
  Use transaction codes like RSO1 (for InfoObjects) or RSRT (for queries) to analyze the structure and dependencies.
  
  
  
  Restore or Replace the InfoObject:
  
  If the InfoObject was deleted by mistake, consider restoring it from a backup or transport request if available.
  If the InfoObject is no longer needed, you may need to update the query or report to remove references to the deleted InfoObject.
  
  
  
  Adjust Compounding Relationships:
  
  If the deleted InfoObject was part of a compounding relationship, you may need to redefine the compounding structure to ensure that all dependent InfoObjects are valid.
  
  
  
  Re-activate Queries: 
  
  After making changes, re-activate any affected queries or InfoProviders to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  
  Testing: 
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the query or report again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to InfoObjects and compounding to understand best practices and potential pitfalls.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a BW/BI expert for further assistance.
