While
working in BW4/HANA based BW systems one can see below information/warnign/error message
displayed.
Action canceled. Not
supported in BW4HANA edition.
Message no. RSB4HANA001
The
message with the technical ID RSB4HANA001 may appear in several occasions. When
the BW system detects, a BW object that is not supported by BW4/HANA the
message is shown. Just to name a few of the occasions:
1.
on attempt to create an BW object in “old
fashion” in BW/4. By old, it is meant a BW
objects that are not supported in BW/4 any more.
From
modelling objects perspective it is classic DSO, InfoCube, Hybrid Providers,
PSA objects that are replaced by aDSO, then MultiProv and InfoSet are replaced
by CompositeProviders,
then InfoCubes
type of Virtual by Open ODS Views.
From
Source System type perspective DB
Connect, UD
Connect, SAP (BODS) Data Service, BAPI based were replaced by HANA Source
System, then SAP ECC
(e.g. SAPI
based Extractors), BW source system and web services based system re
replaced by ODP
source system type.
2.
in t-code RSPLAN on attempt to
maintain 'Central Settings' / 'Characteristic Relationship' / 'Data Slice'. This
function of the RSPLAN is replaced by BW
Modeling tools in SAP
HANA Studio. Better message to display would be “... can only be edited in
the BW Modeling Tools in Eclipse” but that is another story. However, there is
an workaround how to still use the RSPLAN instead of the SAP
HANA Studio. Into a t-code field just enter NOHDB value and the RSPLAN will still work. No need to use the Studio
in that case.
3.
in t-code RSB4HTRF (Transfer of
scenarios). The message is shown in case the BW/4HANA Starter Add-On is not installed
in the system yet.
How
technically the system is evaluating whether to throw this message? By a call
of method GET_B4HANA_SWITCH in class CL_RS_B4HANA_UTIL. The method returns value
of a “switch” (to what level the BW
is already switched to BW4/HANA mode) that can be either 0 = Standard BW
mode, 1 = Compatibility
mode (prepare) or 2 = BW4/HANA mode (data type RSB4HANA_SWITCH). In case of returned
value is different from 2 or 1 then the message is shown.
This
post complements my other blog post that discuss ABAP programs/tools
that are obsolete BW/4HANA.
