• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSTRAN334 - Runtime object '&2' for transformation '&1' is inconsistent ?

  The SAP error message RSTRAN334 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the runtime object for a specific transformation. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when dealing with data transformations between InfoProviders.
  Cause:
  The inconsistency can arise due to several reasons, including:
  
  
  Changes in the Data Model: If there have been changes to the underlying data model (like InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or DataSources) that the transformation relies on, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Missing or Incomplete Objects: If the transformation references objects that are missing or not properly activated, it can cause this error.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the transformation was transported from one system to another and not all dependent objects were transported correctly, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Activation Issues: If the transformation or its components have not been activated properly after changes, it can lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSTRAN334 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Transformation and Objects:
  
  Go to the transformation in the SAP BW system and check if all the referenced objects (like InfoObjects, DataSources, etc.) are active and consistent.
  Ensure that the transformation itself is activated.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the Transformation:
  
  Sometimes, simply reactivating the transformation can resolve the inconsistency. You can do this in the SAP GUI by navigating to the transformation and selecting the "Activate" option.
  
  
  
  Check for Changes:
  
  Review any recent changes made to the data model or transformations. If changes were made, ensure that all dependent objects are also updated and activated.
  
  
  
  Transport Consistency:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, verify that all related objects were included in the transport request and that they are activated in the target system.
  
  
  
  Use the BW Modeling Tools:
  
  If you are using BW Modeling Tools, you can check for inconsistencies using the "Check" functionality available in the modeling environment.
  
  
  
  Check Logs:
  
  Review the logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the inconsistency.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to access transformations and check their status.
  BW Modeling Tools: If you are using BW 7.4 or higher, consider using the BW Modeling Tools in Eclipse for a more modern interface and additional features.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on transformations and data modeling in BW.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the inconsistency causing the RSTRAN334 error.
