• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_SMA791 - Could not find active table of dso &. Skip processing. ?

  The SAP error message RS_SMA791 indicates that the system could not find an active table for the DataStore Object (DSO) specified in the error message. This typically occurs during data extraction or loading processes in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when the system is trying to access a DSO that is not properly configured or does not have an active data table.
  Causes:
  
  Inactive DSO: The DSO may not be activated, meaning that the data model is not fully set up.
  Missing Active Table: The active data table for the DSO might be missing due to a failed activation process or data load.
  Incorrect DSO Name: The DSO name specified in the error message might be incorrect or misspelled.
  Transport Issues: If the DSO was transported from another system, the transport might not have included all necessary objects.
  Database Issues: There could be underlying database issues that prevent the active table from being accessed.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check DSO Activation:
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction code RSA1).
  Navigate to the DSO in question and check if it is activated. If not, activate it.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the DSO:
  
  If the DSO is already activated but still causing issues, try deactivating and then reactivating it.
  
  
  
  Check for Active Table:
  
  Use transaction code SE11 to check if the active table for the DSO exists in the database. The naming convention for the active table is usually <DSO_NAME>_A.
  
  
  
  Review Data Load Process:
  
  Check the data load process logs to see if there were any errors during the last data load that might have caused the active table to not be created.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Logs:
  
  If the DSO was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included and successfully transported.
  
  
  
  Database Consistency Check:
  
  Perform a consistency check on the database to ensure that there are no underlying issues affecting the DSO.
