  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WL364 - The runtime data for join node &1 does not exist ?

    The SAP error message WL364, which states "The runtime data for join node &1 does not exist," typically occurs in the context of SAP Business Warehouse (BW) or SAP BusinessObjects when dealing with queries that involve joins between different data sources or InfoProviders. This error indicates that the system is unable to find the necessary runtime data for a specific join node during the execution of a query.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Data: The join node may not have any data available at runtime, which can happen if the underlying data sources are empty or if there are no records that meet the join conditions.
    2. Incorrect Join Conditions: The join conditions defined in the query may not be valid or may not match any records in the data sources.
    3. Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or the structure of the data, can lead to inconsistencies that result in this error.
    4. Query Design Issues: The query may be incorrectly designed, leading to situations where the join cannot be resolved.
    5. Data Loading Issues: If the data has not been loaded correctly into the InfoProviders, it can lead to missing runtime data.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Data Availability: Verify that the underlying data sources contain the expected data. You can do this by running queries directly on the InfoProviders to ensure they return results.
    2. Review Join Conditions: Examine the join conditions in the query to ensure they are correctly defined and that they match the data in the InfoProviders.
    3. Validate Data Model: Ensure that there have been no recent changes to the data model that could affect the join. If changes were made, consider revalidating the query.
    4. Rebuild the Query: If the query design is suspected to be the issue, try rebuilding the query from scratch to ensure that all components are correctly configured.
    5. Check Data Load Processes: Ensure that the data load processes are running successfully and that there are no errors in the data loading logs. If necessary, reload the data into the InfoProviders.
    6. Use Transaction RSRT: Use transaction RSRT to analyze the query and check for any issues in the execution plan or runtime data.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSRT (Query Monitor), RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), and RSMO (Monitor Data Load).
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation on query design and data modeling in BW to ensure best practices are being followed.

    By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the WL364 error in your SAP environment.
