• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSTRAN631 - InfoSource &1 with aggregation contains '0RECORDTP' as non-key field ?

  The SAP error message RSTRAN631 indicates that there is an issue with the InfoSource you are trying to use in your data transfer process. Specifically, the error states that the InfoSource contains the non-key field '0RECORDTP' in its aggregation, which is causing a problem.
  Cause:
  The root cause of this error is that the field '0RECORDTP' is being used in the aggregation of the InfoSource, but it is not defined as a key field. In SAP BW (Business Warehouse), when you aggregate data, all non-key fields must be handled correctly. If a non-key field is included in the aggregation, it can lead to inconsistencies or errors during data processing.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the InfoSource Definition:
  
  Go to the InfoSource in the SAP BW system and check its definition.
  Look for the field '0RECORDTP' and see how it is being used in the aggregation.
  
  
  
  Modify the Aggregation:
  
  If '0RECORDTP' is not necessary for your aggregation, consider removing it from the aggregation logic.
  If it is necessary, you may need to change the design of your InfoSource to ensure that it is treated correctly.
  
  
  
  Adjust Key Fields:
  
  If '0RECORDTP' should be a key field, you may need to redefine it as a key field in the InfoSource. This will allow it to be included in the aggregation without causing errors.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the InfoSource:
  
  After making changes, make sure to re-activate the InfoSource to apply the modifications.
  
  
  
  Test the Data Transfer:
  
  Once the changes are made, test the data transfer process again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  InfoSource: An InfoSource is a data structure in SAP BW that defines how data is extracted from a source system and how it is structured for reporting.
  Key Fields: Key fields are fields that uniquely identify a record in a data structure. Non-key fields are additional fields that provide more information but do not uniquely identify records.
  Aggregation: In SAP BW, aggregation is the process of summarizing data based on certain criteria. It is important to ensure that the fields used in aggregation are defined correctly to avoid errors.
  
  If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, it may be helpful to consult with your SAP BW administrator or refer to SAP documentation for further troubleshooting.
