  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSTRAN010 - Transformation does not exist (see long text) ?

    The SAP error message RSTRAN010 indicates that a specific transformation does not exist in the system. This error typically occurs in the context of data extraction and transformation processes, particularly when working with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence).

    Cause:

    1. Missing Transformation: The transformation that is being referenced in the data flow does not exist in the system. This could be due to it being deleted, not activated, or never created.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The data source or target might be incorrectly configured, leading to a reference to a non-existent transformation.
    3. Transport Issues: If the transformation was transported from another system, it may not have been included in the transport request or may not have been activated in the target system.
    4. Versioning Issues: There may be versioning issues where the transformation exists in one version of the system but not in another.

    Solution:

    1. Check Transformation: Verify if the transformation exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant area in the SAP BW/BI system (e.g., using transaction RSA1).
    2. Create or Activate Transformation: If the transformation does not exist, you may need to create it. If it exists but is not activated, activate it.
    3. Review Data Flow: Check the data flow to ensure that the transformation is correctly referenced. Make sure that the source and target objects are correctly set up.
    4. Transport Check: If the transformation was supposed to be transported from another system, check the transport logs to ensure it was included and activated in the target system.
    5. Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or notes related to the specific transformation or data flow you are working with.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to manage transformations and data flows.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the error message RSTRAN010.
