• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_PSA_DEP060 - Reverse conversion of table &1 (old version &3 of DataSource &2) started ?

  The SAP error message RS_PSA_DEP060 typically occurs in the context of data extraction and loading processes, particularly when dealing with the Persistent Staging Area (PSA) in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This error indicates that there is an issue with the reverse conversion of a table, which is often related to the DataSource versioning or data consistency.
  Cause:
  
  DataSource Versioning: The error suggests that there is a mismatch between the version of the DataSource being used and the data stored in the PSA. This can happen if the DataSource has been changed or updated after data was already loaded into the PSA.
  Data Consistency Issues: If the structure of the DataSource has changed (e.g., fields added, removed, or modified), the existing data in the PSA may not be compatible with the new structure.
  Data Transfer Issues: Problems during data transfer or loading processes can also lead to inconsistencies that trigger this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check DataSource Version: Verify the version of the DataSource in the SAP BW system. If the DataSource has been modified, you may need to adjust the PSA data accordingly.
  Delete and Reload Data: If the DataSource has changed significantly, consider deleting the existing data in the PSA and reloading it from the source system. This ensures that the data structure matches the current version of the DataSource.
  Repair the PSA: If the issue is due to data corruption or inconsistency, you may need to repair the PSA. This can involve using transaction codes like RSA1 to access the Data Warehousing Workbench and manage the PSA.
  Check for Notes and Patches: Look for SAP Notes or patches that may address known issues related to the specific DataSource or the error message. Applying relevant updates can sometimes resolve underlying issues.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or community forums for any specific guidance related to the DataSource in question.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSPC (Process Chain), and RSMO (Monitor Data Load).
  SAP Notes: Search the SAP Support Portal for notes related to the specific DataSource or error message for additional troubleshooting steps.
  DataSource Management: Understand how to manage DataSources, including how to activate, deactivate, and adjust them as needed.
  
  If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or consult with a BW expert for more in-depth analysis and resolution.
