  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM1655 - InfoArea & does not exist ?

    The SAP error message RSM1655 indicates that the specified InfoArea does not exist in the system. This error typically occurs when you are trying to access or work with an InfoArea in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) that has not been created, has been deleted, or is incorrectly referenced.

    Causes:

    1. Non-existent InfoArea: The InfoArea you are trying to access has not been created in the system.
    2. Typographical Error: There may be a typo in the name of the InfoArea you are trying to reference.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the InfoArea.
    4. Transport Issues: If the InfoArea was recently transported from another system, it may not have been successfully imported.
    5. System Configuration: The InfoArea may exist in a different client or system.

    Solutions:

    1. Check InfoArea Existence:

      • Go to the SAP BW modeling tools and check if the InfoArea exists. You can do this by navigating to the relevant area in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction code RSA1).
