  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UMK200 - ODS Object '&1' does not exist in BW System '&2' ?

    The SAP error message UMK200 indicates that an ODS (Operational Data Store) object specified in the error message does not exist in the BW (Business Warehouse) system. This can occur for various reasons, and understanding the cause and potential solutions can help resolve the issue.

    Cause:

    1. Non-Existent ODS Object: The ODS object specified in the error message (&1) does not exist in the BW system (&2). This could be due to a typo in the name or the object not being created yet.
    2. Transport Issues: If the ODS object was recently transported from another system (e.g., development to production), the transport may not have been successful, or the object may not have been included in the transport request.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the ODS object.
    4. System Configuration: The BW system may not be properly configured to recognize the ODS object, especially if there are inconsistencies in the metadata.

    Solution:

    1. Verify ODS Object Name: Check the name of the ODS object in the error message for any typographical errors. Ensure that you are using the correct name.
    2. Check Object Existence: Use transaction code RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to navigate to the ODS object and verify if it exists in the BW system. If it does not exist, you may need to create it.
    3. Transport Check: If the ODS object was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs to ensure that the transport was successful and that the ODS object was included. If it was not transported, you may need to re-transport it.
    4. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the ODS object. You can check this in transaction SU53 after the error occurs to see if there are any authorization issues.
    5. System Consistency: If the ODS object exists but is still causing issues, consider running consistency checks or reactivating the object. You can do this in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
    6. Check BW Version: Ensure that the BW version you are using supports the ODS object. If there are version mismatches, it may lead to such errors.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • RSA1: Data Warehousing Workbench
      • SE11: Data Dictionary (to check the technical details of the ODS object)
      • SE03: Transport Organizer Tools (to check transport requests)
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to ODS objects and error UMK200.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation on ODS objects and BW system configuration for best practices and troubleshooting steps.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the UMK200 error and implement a solution to resolve it.
