  The SAP error message RSOBI_MF126 typically indicates that there is a missing short text for an object in the SAP system. This error is often encountered in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or when dealing with InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or other data modeling components.
  Cause:
  The error message "Short text for object is &3" suggests that the system is trying to reference an object (like an InfoObject or InfoProvider) that does not have a short description defined. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Short Text: The object was created without a short text or the short text was deleted.
  Transport Issues: If the object was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the short text may not have been included in the transport request.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model that did not properly update all related objects.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSOBI_MF126 error, you can take the following steps:

  Locate the object in question.
  Check if the short text is missing or empty.
  If it is missing, enter a valid short text for the object.
  
  
  
  Transport Request: If the object was transported, ensure that the transport request included all necessary components, including the short text. If not, you may need to re-transport the object or manually add the short text in the target system.
  
  
  Check for Dependencies: If the object is part of a larger model, ensure that all related objects also have their short texts defined.
  
  
  Re-activate the Object: After maintaining the short text, you may need to re-activate the object or the data model to ensure that the changes take effect.
