• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSO_MPRO_PRE_CHECK008 - InfoProvider &1: New InfoObject &2 is already used in the MultiProvider ?

  The SAP error message RSO_MPRO_PRE_CHECK008 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a MultiProvider in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). Specifically, it means that you are trying to add a new InfoObject (characteristic or key figure) to a MultiProvider, but that InfoObject is already being used in the MultiProvider.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You attempt to add an InfoObject to a MultiProvider that is already included in the definition of that MultiProvider.
  There may be a misunderstanding about the structure of the MultiProvider or the InfoObjects that are already part of it.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check MultiProvider Definition:
  
  Open the MultiProvider in the SAP BW modeling tools (e.g., RSA1).
  Review the list of InfoProviders (InfoCubes, DataStore Objects, etc.) that are part of the MultiProvider.
  Check if the InfoObject you are trying to add is already included in one of the InfoProviders that make up the MultiProvider.
  
  
  
  Remove Duplicate InfoObject:
  
  If the InfoObject is indeed already part of the MultiProvider, you do not need to add it again. You can proceed with your modeling without adding the duplicate InfoObject.
  
  
  
  Modify Existing InfoObject:
  
  If you need to make changes to the InfoObject, consider modifying the existing one instead of trying to add it again.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for more information on MultiProviders and InfoObjects to ensure you are following best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the MultiProvider to ensure that it functions as expected without errors.
