  • What causes this issue?

    The relevant hierarchies in BW are stored according to the combination
    DataSource/source system.
    If you want to change the selection of BW-relevant hierarchies, this
    change is effective for all InfoPackages that have been created for the
    same DataSource/source system combination.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Check all other InfoPackages for DataSource &V1& and source system &V2&
    to see whether the change executed is also appropriate for these
    InfoPackages.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    If you want to load a hierarchy in a different InfoPackage (which will
    be marked as <ZH>non</> BW-relevant as a result of your changes) the
    selections made for this InfoPackage will be lost and The InfoPackage
    can no longer load.
    Errors will occur when you start the InfoPackages. The monitor produces
    an error message to say that a valid hierarchy selection has to be made.
