How To Fix WXP559 - Assignments to cube fields are only deleted for complete cube information

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WXP - Retail Planning

• Message number: 559

• Message text: Assignments to cube fields are only deleted for complete cube information

What causes this issue?

You want to compare planning scenario fields and info cube fields. This
means that assignments to info cube fields that no longer exist are
deleted. Not all the necessary information about the info cubes used
has been entered.
The unidentified cube fields must be regarded as being missing and then
deleted. To reduce maintenance when configuring the BW link, cube
fields in field assignments are only deleted if the information about
the info cubes used in your planning have been deleted completely.
This is not applicable when comparing planning scenario fields or
periodicities that are new or no longer required.
There are two causes for the present situation:
The <DS:TRAN.SM59>RFC destination</> for the BW system was not
specified.
Not all the relevant info cubes have been entered for the periodicities
that are used in your planning.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

If you want to delete the assignments for cubefields that no longer
exist, select all the info cube to be used (for example, RFC
destination, info cube name) and choose <ZK><PF>Read infocube
information</></>.
If you want to delete infocube field assignments without specifying an
infocube, choose <ZK><PF>Remove field assignments </></>.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP559 - Assignments to cube fields are only deleted for complete cube information ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WXP559 - Assignments to cube fields are only deleted for complete cube information
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when you attempt to delete or modify assignments to cube fields in a way that is incomplete or inconsistent. Specifically, the system expects that assignments to cube fields should be deleted only when the entire cube information is being deleted or reset. If you try to delete assignments partially or in an inconsistent state, the system issues this warning to prevent data integrity issues.
  In other words, the message indicates that the deletion of assignments to cube fields is only allowed when the complete cube information is being deleted, not for partial or individual assignments.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Cube fields refer to the fields assigned to InfoCube characteristics or key figures in SAP BW (Business Warehouse).
  Assignments link InfoObjects (characteristics/key figures) to the InfoCube structure.
  When you want to delete or change these assignments, the system requires that the entire cube structure be handled consistently.
  Partial deletion or modification of assignments can lead to inconsistencies in the cube metadata or data model.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve or avoid this warning:
  
  
  Delete Complete Cube Information:
  
  If you want to delete assignments to cube fields, you should delete the entire cube information (e.g., the InfoCube or its structure) rather than trying to delete individual assignments.
  This can be done via transaction codes like RSA1 (BW Modeling) by deleting the InfoCube or resetting its structure.
  
  
  
  Use Proper Modeling Tools:
  
  Use the BW Modeling tools or Data Warehousing Workbench to make changes to the cube structure.
  Avoid manual or partial deletion of assignments in the database or via unsupported methods.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that no dependent objects (like queries, transformations, or process chains) are relying on the cube fields you want to delete.
  Remove or adjust these dependencies before deleting the cube or its assignments.
  
  
  
  Transport and Activation:
  
  After making changes, make sure to activate the InfoCube and transport the changes properly if working in a multi-system landscape.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  RSA1 - Data Warehousing Workbench (BW Modeling)
  RSDCUBE - InfoCube maintenance
  RSRT - Query Monitor (to check dependencies)
  
  
  
  SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to InfoCube maintenance and assignment deletion for any known issues or patches.
  
  
  
  Best Practices:
  
  Always perform structural changes in a development environment.
  Backup cube data or metadata before deleting or modifying assignments.
  Use SAP BW modeling tools to maintain consistency.
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
  The WXP559 warning is a safeguard to ensure that assignments to cube fields are only deleted when the entire cube information is deleted, preventing partial and inconsistent deletions. To fix this, delete the complete cube or use proper modeling tools to manage assignments consistently.
