    Please follow the below instruction in order to resolve this error:

    • First of all please make sure that the latest version of SAP doc 1701123 has been applied into your BW system.
    • Now display table RSADMINA in transaction SE16.
    • Also, make sure the none of the TREX_RFC_DEST entry maintained if your BW system do not connect to a BWA
    • Now reset the buffer for table RSADMINA with ok code: /$tab rsadmina. Please do it in all the application server

    Report SAP_DROP_TMPTABLES helps user to delete temporary tables from BWA or from the SAP HANA database since SAP Doc1701123.

    In order to judge whether BW system has a connection to BWA the reports checks the configuration in table RSADMINA. And if the BW system without BWA bu mistake has a BWA RFC entry maintained in this table then the SAP_DROP_TMPTABLES report will try to access the BWA RFC destination and will issue STREX005 error.
