• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSOBI_MF104 - DataSource &1 has no segments ?

  The SAP error message RSOBI_MF104 indicates that a specific DataSource (identified by &1) does not have any segments defined. This can occur in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when trying to extract data from a source system, and it typically means that the DataSource is not properly configured or that there is an issue with the underlying data structure.
  Cause:
  
  No Segments Defined: The DataSource may not have any segments defined, which means there are no fields or data structures available for extraction.

  Solution:
