• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SKWS_ERROR048 - Info object(s) have other attribute values ?

  The SAP error message SKWS_ERROR048 indicates that there is a mismatch in the attribute values of the InfoObjects being processed. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA when there is an inconsistency in the data model, particularly when dealing with master data or attributes associated with InfoObjects.
  Cause:
  
  
  Inconsistent Attribute Values: The error usually arises when the attribute values of an InfoObject do not match the expected values defined in the master data. This can happen if:
  
  The master data has been changed or updated, but the changes have not been reflected in the InfoObject.
  There are discrepancies between the attribute values in the InfoObject and the corresponding values in the master data.
  Data was loaded incorrectly or incompletely.
  
  
  
  Data Load Issues: If there are issues during the data load process, such as failed transformations or incorrect mappings, this can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Hierarchy Issues: If the InfoObject is part of a hierarchy and the hierarchy is not properly maintained, it can lead to attribute mismatches.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Master Data: Verify the master data for the InfoObject in question. Ensure that the attribute values are correct and consistent. You can do this by:
  
  Using transaction codes like RSD1 (InfoObject maintenance) to check the InfoObject definition.
  Using transaction RSMO to monitor the data load process and check for any errors.
  
  
  
  Reprocess Data: If you find inconsistencies, you may need to reprocess the data load. This can involve:
  
  Deleting the erroneous data from the InfoProvider.
  Reloading the data from the source system to ensure that the InfoObject is populated with the correct attribute values.
  
  
  
  Check Transformations: Review the transformations used in the data load process to ensure that they are correctly mapping the source data to the target InfoObject attributes.
  
  
  Hierarchy Maintenance: If the InfoObject is part of a hierarchy, ensure that the hierarchy is correctly defined and that all nodes have the appropriate attribute values.
  
  
  Data Validation: Implement data validation checks to catch these issues early in the data load process.
