  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_BW_EXTRACTION006 First start XPRA for LO extract structure changes
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when there are changes in the structure of the Logistics (LO) DataSource extract structure in SAP BW, and the extraction process requires the activation of the extraction structure in transaction XPRA before data can be extracted or loaded.
  In other words, the extract structure has been modified (e.g., fields added, removed, or changed), and the system expects you to activate these changes in XPRA to ensure the extraction logic is consistent with the new structure.
  
  Explanation:
  
  XPRA is the transaction used to activate and manage extract structures for Logistics DataSources.
  When you make changes to the LO DataSource structure (e.g., via customizing or enhancement), these changes are not automatically activated.
  Until you activate the extract structure in XPRA, the extraction process cannot proceed, hence the error message.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Run transaction XPRA:
  
  Go to SAP GUI and enter transaction code XPRA.
  
  
  
  Select the relevant LO DataSource:
