• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSQBW458 - Field &1(&2), switch '&3' exists in InfoSet, no longer in InfoProvider ?

  The SAP error message RSQBW458 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the fields defined in an InfoSet and those available in the underlying InfoProvider. Specifically, it suggests that a field (denoted as &1) with a specific technical name (denoted as &2) is present in the InfoSet but is no longer available in the InfoProvider associated with the InfoSet. The switch (denoted as &3) refers to a specific configuration or setting that may be relevant to the InfoSet or InfoProvider.
  Cause:
  
  Field Removal: The field in question may have been removed from the InfoProvider (e.g., a DataSource, InfoCube, or other data structure) after the InfoSet was created or last updated.
  Changes in Data Model: Changes in the underlying data model, such as modifications to the InfoProvider structure, can lead to this error.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoSet was transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies between the source and target systems.
  Switch Configuration: The switch mentioned may indicate that certain fields are conditionally available based on configuration settings, and the current settings do not allow the field to be accessed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Update the InfoSet: 
  
  Go to the InfoSet in the SAP BW system and check the field list. Remove the field that is causing the error if it is no longer needed.

  Check InfoProvider: 
  
  Verify the structure of the InfoProvider to ensure that it contains all the necessary fields. If the field was removed intentionally, update the InfoSet accordingly.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the InfoSet: 
  
  After making changes, re-activate the InfoSet to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  
  Review Switch Settings: 
  
  Check the configuration related to the switch mentioned in the error message. Ensure that the switch is set correctly to allow access to the required fields.
