• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSOBI_MF117 - No object found for reuse ?

  The SAP error message RSOBI_MF117 ("No object found for reuse") typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when you are trying to reuse an object (like a query, InfoProvider, or other BW objects) that the system cannot find. This can happen for several reasons, including:
  Causes:
  
  Object Deletion: The object you are trying to reuse may have been deleted or is no longer available in the system.
  Transport Issues: If the object was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), it may not have been transported correctly or may not exist in the target system.
  Authorization Issues: You may not have the necessary authorizations to access the object, leading to the system not being able to find it.
  Incorrect Object Name: There may be a typo or incorrect naming in the object reference.
  Inactive Objects: The object might be inactive or not properly activated in the system.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Object Existence: Verify that the object you are trying to reuse actually exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., RSA1 for InfoProviders) and checking if the object is listed.
  Review Transport Logs: If the object was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that it was successfully transported and is available in the target system.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the object. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify your permissions.
  Correct Object Reference: Double-check the name and reference of the object you are trying to reuse to ensure there are no typos or errors.
  Activate Objects: If the object is inactive, try to activate it again. This can often resolve issues related to object availability.
  Consult SAP Notes: Look for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions to common issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSO2 (Manage Queries), and others that may help you navigate and troubleshoot BW objects.
