How To Fix FDT_DSM033 - Simulation of remote service in local system may result in errors

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FDT_DSM - BRFplus: Decision Service Manager

• Message number: 033

• Message text: Simulation of remote service in local system may result in errors

What causes this issue?

You are about to simulate a function that has been designed as a service
running in a different system (managed system controlled by SAP
NetWeaver Decision Service Management). In principle, simulating the
function in the local system is allowed. However, there is no guarantee
that this leads to the same results as in the remote system, or that the
function can be executed in the local system at all.
The reason for the deviations in function behavior with respect to the
host system is that the function has been defined based on the
environment that is provided in the remote system. This means that
proper function execution may rely on the presence of certain data
objects, domain values, or table entries that do not necessarily exist
in the local system.

System Response

You can start the simulation run in the local system.

How to fix this error?

Due to the reasons outlined above, we do not recommend running a
simulation for a remote function in the local system. If you decide to
start the simulation anyway, be aware that the simulation result in one
system does not allow for any conclusions with respect to running the
same function in a different system.
Generally, running a remote function in the local system only makes
sense if you urgently need to test the function while the remote system
is temporarily unreachable, and if you are sure that the function
behavior in both systems is more or less identical.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_DSM033 - Simulation of remote service in local system may result in errors ?

  The SAP error message FDT_DSM033 indicates that there may be issues when simulating a remote service in a local system. This error typically arises in the context of using the SAP Fiori tools or when working with the SAP Gateway and OData services. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause
  
  Configuration Issues: The local system may not be properly configured to simulate the remote service. This can include missing or incorrect settings in the service definition or the system's communication settings.
  Service Availability: The remote service may not be available or reachable from the local system. This could be due to network issues, service downtime, or incorrect service URLs.
  Authorization Problems: The user executing the simulation may not have the necessary authorizations to access the remote service.
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the data being used for the simulation, which can lead to errors during the execution of the service.
  
  Solutions
  
  Check Configuration: Ensure that the service is correctly configured in the local system. Verify the service definition, including the service URL and any required parameters.
  Test Connectivity: Use tools like the SAP Gateway Client (transaction /IWFND/GW_CLIENT) to test the connectivity to the remote service. Ensure that the service is reachable and functioning as expected.
  Review Authorizations: Check the user roles and authorizations to ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to access the remote service.
  Debugging: If possible, enable debugging to trace the execution of the service and identify where the error occurs. This can provide insights into what might be going wrong.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific service you are trying to simulate. There may be specific requirements or known issues documented.
  Check for Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date with the latest patches and updates, as there may be bug fixes related to this issue.
