• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSRV104 - View &1 using master data tables does not exist in the database ?

  The SAP error message RSRV104 indicates that a specific view, which is expected to be based on master data tables, does not exist in the database. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when trying to access or query data that relies on certain master data views.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Master Data: The master data tables that the view is supposed to reference may not have been created or populated correctly.
  Incorrect Configuration: The view may not have been configured properly in the system, leading to its absence in the database.
  Transport Issues: If the view was recently transported from another system (e.g., from development to production), the transport may not have included the necessary objects.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model or the underlying data sources may have led to the view being dropped or not being created.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the view, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Master Data Tables: Verify that the master data tables required for the view exist in the database. You can do this by checking the relevant data source or InfoObject in the SAP BW system.
  Recreate the View: If the view is missing, you may need to recreate it. This can often be done through the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) by reactivating the InfoObject or the data model.
  Transport Check: If the view was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included and successfully transported.
  Data Load: Ensure that the master data has been loaded correctly. You may need to run the data load process again to populate the necessary tables.
  Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the view. This can be done by checking the user roles and authorizations in the SAP system.
  Use Transaction RSRV: You can use transaction RSRV to check the consistency of the InfoObjects and views. This transaction can help identify issues with master data and provide options for repair.
