• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSQBW205 - Specify a standard InfoSet ?

  The SAP error message RSQBW205 indicates that a standard InfoSet has not been specified in the context of a query or report you are trying to execute. This error typically arises when working with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) and can occur in various scenarios, such as when creating or executing queries in the Query Designer or when using BEx Analyzer.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system requires a standard InfoSet to be defined for the query or report you are trying to run. An InfoSet is a collection of data that can be used for reporting and analysis, and it must be specified for the query to function correctly.
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSQBW205 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Query Definition:
  
  Open the Query Designer and check the query that is causing the error.
  Ensure that a standard InfoSet is assigned to the query. You can do this by navigating to the properties of the query and looking for the InfoSet assignment.
  
  
  
  Assign a Standard InfoSet:
  
  If no InfoSet is assigned, you will need to assign a standard InfoSet. This can typically be done in the Query Designer by selecting the appropriate InfoSet from the available options.
  
  
  
  Validate InfoSet:
  
  Ensure that the InfoSet you are trying to use is active and correctly configured. You can check this in the InfoSet maintenance transaction (e.g., transaction code SQ02).
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Make sure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the InfoSet and the associated data. Lack of authorization can sometimes lead to similar errors.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Query:
  
  If the issue persists, consider recreating the query from scratch, ensuring that you correctly specify the InfoSet during the creation process.
