• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UGMD604 - No hierarchy found ?

  The SAP error message UGMD604 "No hierarchy found" typically occurs in the context of SAP Business Warehouse (BW) or SAP Analytics when a user attempts to access a hierarchy that does not exist or is not properly defined in the system. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when working with InfoObjects, queries, or reports that rely on hierarchical data structures.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Hierarchy: The hierarchy that the report or query is trying to access has not been created or activated in the system.
  Incorrect Hierarchy Assignment: The InfoObject may not be correctly assigned to the hierarchy, or the hierarchy may not be assigned to the relevant InfoProvider.
  Data Load Issues: The data load process may not have successfully loaded the hierarchy data into the system.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the hierarchy.
  Incorrect Query Design: The query may be incorrectly designed, leading to a reference to a non-existent hierarchy.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Hierarchy Existence: Verify that the hierarchy exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant InfoObject in the SAP BW modeling tools and checking the hierarchy settings.
  Activate Hierarchy: If the hierarchy exists but is not activated, activate it in the hierarchy maintenance transaction (e.g., RSH1 for InfoObjects).
  Review Assignments: Ensure that the hierarchy is correctly assigned to the InfoObject and that the InfoObject is part of the relevant InfoProvider.
  Data Load Verification: Check the data load process to ensure that the hierarchy data has been loaded correctly. You may need to re-run the data load if there were issues.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the hierarchy. This can be checked in the user roles and authorizations.
  Query Design Review: Review the query design to ensure that it references the correct hierarchy. You may need to adjust the query settings or filters.
