  The SAP error message RSOBI_MF182 typically occurs when there is an issue related to the search for InfoObjects using elementary data types in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) system. This error can arise during the process of querying or reporting when the system is unable to find the appropriate InfoObjects based on the specified data types.
  Cause:
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The error may occur if there is a mismatch between the data types defined in the InfoObjects and the data types being used in the query or report.
  Missing InfoObjects: The InfoObjects that are being referenced may not exist or may not be activated in the system.
  Incorrect Query Definition: The query may be incorrectly defined, leading to the system being unable to resolve the InfoObjects.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoObjects were recently transported from another system, there may be inconsistencies or missing objects in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check InfoObject Definitions: Verify that the InfoObjects being referenced in the query exist and are correctly defined with the appropriate elementary data types.
  Activate InfoObjects: Ensure that all relevant InfoObjects are activated in the system. You can do this by navigating to the InfoObject maintenance transaction (e.g., RSA1) and checking the activation status.
  Review Query Definition: Go through the query definition in the BEx Query Designer to ensure that all InfoObjects are correctly included and that there are no errors in the query structure.
  Data Type Consistency: Ensure that the data types used in the query match those defined in the InfoObjects. If necessary, adjust the query to align with the correct data types.
  Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or missing objects. You may need to re-transport the InfoObjects or manually create them in the target system.
  System Logs: Check the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
