• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSTRAN409 - Activation of Transformation &1 skipped. Source ADSO &2 needs remodelling ?

  The SAP error message RSTRAN409 indicates that the activation of a transformation has been skipped because the source Advanced DataStore Object (ADSO) needs remodelling. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW/4HANA or SAP BW on HANA environments when there are changes in the structure of the source ADSO that are not compatible with the existing transformation.
  Cause:
  
  Structural Changes: The source ADSO has undergone structural changes (e.g., fields added, removed, or changed) that require the transformation to be remapped or adjusted.
  Inconsistent Metadata: The metadata of the source ADSO does not match the expected structure defined in the transformation.
  Versioning Issues: The transformation may be referencing an outdated version of the ADSO.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSTRAN409 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Source ADSO:
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) and check the structure of the source ADSO. Ensure that it matches the expected structure used in the transformation.
  
  
  
  Remodel the ADSO:
  
  If there have been changes to the ADSO, you may need to remodel it. This can be done by:
  
  Opening the ADSO in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
  Making necessary adjustments to the structure.
  Activating the ADSO after making changes.
  
  
  
  
  
  Adjust the Transformation:
  
  After remodeling the ADSO, you may need to adjust the transformation:
  
  Open the transformation in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
  Check the mapping and ensure that all fields are correctly mapped according to the new structure of the ADSO.
  Activate the transformation.
  
  
  
  
  
  Re-activate the Transformation:
  
  Once the transformation has been adjusted, try to activate it again. This should resolve the error if the source ADSO and transformation are now compatible.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no other transformations or processes that depend on the source ADSO that might also need to be adjusted.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) and RSTT (Transformation Monitoring) to manage and monitor transformations.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed guidelines on working with transformations and ADSOs.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to this error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
