2920500 - Activate InfoObjects with circular reference

InfoObjects with circular reference/dependency cannot be activated manually or via transport:

When trying to activate one InfoObject IOBJ1, error issued:

• "Attribute <IOBJ2> from characteristic <IOBJ1> not (actively) available" Message no. R7322

When trying to activate issued InfoObject IOBJ2, the following error is issued:

• "Characteristic <IOBJ2>: Referenced characteristic <IOBJ3> not (actively) available" Message no. R7396

Trying to activate issued InfoObject IOBJ3 then fails with error:

• "Attribute <IOBJ1> from characteristic <IOBJ3> not (actively) available" Message no. R7322

This resulted in a circular reference case, because activation of InfoObject IOBJ1 was already not possible due to the first error.

Additionally, the following error might also occur:

• "Navigation attribute <IOBJ2> is missing in characteristic <IOBJ1>" Message no. R7427
• "Hierarchy characteristic <IOBJ2> of characteristic <IOBJ1> is not active"

• SAP NetWeaver
• SAP BW/4HANA
