• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRMA_CAT023 - Company code &1 not found in BW ?

  The SAP error message:
  WRMA_CAT023 Company code &1 not found in BW
  typically occurs when a company code that is expected to be present in the BW (Business Warehouse) system is not found during data extraction, loading, or reporting processes.
  
  Cause:
  
  The company code (represented by &1 in the message) does not exist in the BW system master data.
  The company code might be newly created in the source ERP system but has not yet been replicated or maintained in BW.
  There could be a mismatch or inconsistency between the source system and BW master data.
  The BW system might be missing the relevant master data load or initialization for company codes.
  The data source or transformation in BW expects the company code to be present but it is missing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Master Data in BW:
  
  Verify if the company code exists in the BW master data tables (e.g., 0COMP_CODE or related master data InfoObjects).
  Use transaction RSA1 in BW to check the master data of the InfoObject representing company codes.
  
  
  
  Load or Replicate Master Data:
  
  If the company code is missing, load or replicate the company code master data from the source ERP system to BW.
  This can be done by running the relevant master data extraction and data load process (e.g., via DataSources or InfoPackages).
  
  
  
  Check DataSource and Transformations:
  
  Ensure that the DataSource extracting company code data is correctly configured.
  Check transformations and routines to confirm they handle company codes correctly.
  
  
  
  Synchronize Master Data:
  
  If the company code was recently created or changed in the ERP system, ensure that the BW system is updated accordingly.
  Run delta or full loads of master data to synchronize.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations and System Connections:
  
  Verify that the BW system has proper access to the source system to extract master data.
  Check RFC connections and authorizations.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  InfoObject 0COMP_CODE is typically used in BW to represent company codes.
  Master data consistency between ERP and BW is crucial for accurate reporting.
  This error often appears during data load processes or when running reports that filter or group by company code.
  Regular master data loads and monitoring help prevent such errors.
  If using SAP BW/4HANA or BW on HANA, the same principles apply but with updated tools and interfaces.
