  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP831 - Infocube &1 does not contain information object &2 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WXP831 Infocube &1 does not contain information object &2


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to reference or use an InfoObject (&2) in the context of an InfoCube (&1), but the specified InfoObject is not part of the InfoCube's definition. In other words, the InfoObject you are trying to access or use is not included in the InfoCube's structure.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Attempting to query or report on an InfoObject that is not assigned to the InfoCube.
    • Trying to load or transform data involving an InfoObject that is missing from the InfoCube.
    • Using a BEx query or a transformation that references an InfoObject not present in the InfoCube.

    Solution:

    1. Check InfoCube Definition:

      • Go to transaction RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench).
      • Navigate to the InfoCube &1.
      • Verify if the InfoObject &2 is part of the InfoCube's dimensions or key figures.
    2. Add the InfoObject to the InfoCube (if required):

      • If the InfoObject is missing and should be part of the InfoCube, you need to add it.
      • Modify the InfoCube structure to include the InfoObject in the appropriate dimension or as a key figure.
      • After modification, activate the InfoCube.
    3. Adjust Queries or Transformations:

      • If the InfoObject is not supposed to be part of the InfoCube, adjust your queries, transformations, or data loads to exclude the InfoObject.
      • Ensure that all references to InfoObjects in queries or transformations correspond to those defined in the InfoCube.
    4. Check for Typographical Errors:

      • Verify that the InfoObject name is correctly spelled and corresponds exactly to the one in the InfoCube.
    5. Transport and Activation:

      • If changes were made to the InfoCube, ensure that the InfoCube is activated.
      • Transport the changes to the relevant system if working in a multi-system landscape.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction RSA1: Used to manage InfoCubes and InfoObjects.
    • InfoCube: A multidimensional dataset in SAP BW that stores consolidated data.
    • InfoObject: The smallest unit of information in SAP BW, representing characteristics (dimensions) or key figures (measures).
    • BEx Query Designer: Tool to create queries on InfoCubes; queries must only use InfoObjects present in the InfoCube.
    • Data Load Process: During data load or transformation, all InfoObjects must be consistent with the InfoCube structure.

    Summary:

    The error WXP831 indicates a mismatch between the InfoCube and the InfoObject being referenced. The solution is to ensure that the InfoObject is part of the InfoCube or to adjust your processes to only use InfoObjects that exist in the InfoCube.


    If you need further assistance, please provide the InfoCube name and InfoObject name, and the context in which the error occurs (e.g., during query execution, data load, etc.).
