  Explanation of the Message
  
  Message ID: WS_TOOL173  
  Text: End of After Import of object R3TR WEBI &1  
  Object Type: R3TR WEBI (Transport object type for Web Intelligence documents)  
  &1: Placeholder for the specific WebI object name or ID
  
  This message is an informational or status message indicating the completion of the "After Import" phase for a Web Intelligence object during a transport or import process.
  
  Cause
  
  The message itself is not an error, but rather an informational message indicating that the post-import processing of a Web Intelligence document (WEBI object) has finished.
  It appears in transport logs or import logs when WebI documents are imported into the SAP system or BI platform.
  If this message appears alongside errors or warnings, it may indicate issues with the WebI object import, such as:
  
  Missing dependencies (e.g., universes, connections)
  Version incompatibilities
  Transport inconsistencies
  Authorization or system configuration problems
  
  
  
  
  When is this message seen?
  
  During the import of transports containing Web Intelligence reports (R3TR WEBI objects) in SAP BI or SAP NetWeaver systems.
  In the transport logs or import queue logs.
  After the import process completes the "After Import" step for the WebI object.
  
  
  Solution / Recommended Actions
  
  
  Check the Transport Logs:
  
  Review the full transport or import logs to see if there are any preceding or subsequent error messages related to the WebI object.
  WS_TOOL173 itself is informational; look for errors or warnings around it.
  
  
  
  Verify Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that all dependent objects (universes, connections, data sources) required by the WebI document are present and correctly transported.
  Missing dependencies can cause the WebI object to fail or behave unexpectedly after import.
  
  
  
  Check Version Compatibility:
  
  Confirm that the WebI document version is compatible with the target SAP BI platform or SAP NetWeaver version.
  Incompatibilities can cause import issues.
  
  
  
  Authorization and System Configuration:
  
  Verify that the user performing the import has the necessary authorizations.
  Check system settings related to transport and import of BI objects.
  
  
  
  Re-import or Re-transport:
  
  If issues persist, try re-exporting and re-importing the WebI object.
  Sometimes transport files can get corrupted or incomplete.
