• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBI_CHECKS110 - Consistency of Service Definitions (Elementary Type) ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WEBI_CHECKS110 Consistency of Service Definitions (Elementary Type)
  
  Cause
  This error typically occurs in SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence (WebI) when there is an inconsistency or mismatch in the service definitions related to elementary data types. Specifically, it indicates that the service definitions (such as those for web services or data providers) have conflicting or incompatible elementary type definitions.
  Common scenarios causing this error include:
  
  Mismatched or corrupted service definitions in the repository.
  Inconsistent or outdated WSDL (Web Services Description Language) files or service metadata.
  Changes in the underlying data source or service interface that are not reflected in the WebI document or universe.
  Importing or upgrading service definitions without proper synchronization.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the WEBI_CHECKS110 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Service Definitions:
  
  Verify the service definitions used by the WebI document or universe.
  Ensure that the WSDL files or service metadata are consistent and up-to-date.
  
  
  
  Synchronize or Re-import Service Metadata:
  
  If the service interface has changed, re-import the WSDL or service metadata into the SAP BusinessObjects repository.
  This ensures that the service definitions in the system match the actual service.
  
  
  
  Validate Data Types:
  
  Check the elementary data types defined in the service.
  Make sure that the data types used in the WebI document or universe match those defined in the service.
  
  
  
  Repair or Recreate the Universe:
  
  If the universe is based on a web service, consider recreating or repairing it to ensure consistency.
  Use the Information Design Tool (IDT) or Universe Design Tool (UDT) to validate and fix inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Clear Cache and Restart Services:
  
  Sometimes, cached metadata can cause inconsistencies.
  Clear the cache on the SAP BusinessObjects server and restart the relevant services.
