3.X Datasource not visible in the transport after deletion.

122 Views

Hello Friends,

Came across the below scenario:

I have deleted a Datasource, Infosource etc as a part of a cleanup activity since they are no longer required. I have performed this activity in the Development box in BW and collected the changes in a transport.

When I check the relevant Request/Task in SE01, I am able to view the folders for transfer rules, Update rules as well as the infosource with the relevant object inside the folder but I am unable to find any folder for the datasource which I have deleted.

Erstwhile, I came across the same kind of issue once due to which while transporting the changes to Quality I have faced an Error Code 8. While analyzing further found that the datasource which I have deleted was still available in Q in inactive status and it has not got deleted.

To be specific, I want to know

1. Is there any procedure we need to follow while deleting a 3.x datasource?

2. What is the reason behind the datasource not visible in the transport?

3. How can I overcome this issue?

Kindly advice..

Thanks!
