  The SAP error message RODPS032, which indicates "Empty data package (zero records) extracted," typically occurs during the extraction process when no data is available to be extracted from the source system. This can happen in various scenarios, particularly when using SAP Data Services or SAP BW (Business Warehouse) for data extraction.
  Causes:

  Verify Data Load Processes: Ensure that the data load processes into the source system have been completed successfully and that the data is present.
  Adjust Time Frame: If applicable, adjust the time frame for the extraction to ensure it encompasses periods where data is known to exist.
  Check for Errors in Data Source: Investigate any potential issues with the data source, such as connectivity problems or configuration errors that may prevent data from being accessed.
