• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAOLTP021 - Rep. info. on DataSource &2 from source system &1 was still current ?

  The SAP error message RSAOLTP021 indicates that there is an issue with the data extraction process from a source system to a Data Warehouse (BW) system. Specifically, the message states that the replication information for the DataSource is still current, which means that the system is trying to replicate data that has not yet been fully processed or is still in a state of being updated.
  Cause:
  
  Ongoing Data Replication: The DataSource is currently being updated or has not completed its previous data extraction process.
  Locking Issues: There may be locks on the DataSource that prevent it from being replicated.
  Data Consistency: The system may be trying to replicate data that is not yet consistent or complete.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the DataSource or the extraction process.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check DataSource Status: Verify the status of the DataSource in the source system. Ensure that there are no ongoing processes that might be locking the DataSource.
  Wait for Completion: If the DataSource is currently being updated, wait for the process to complete before attempting to replicate again.
  Monitor Data Replication: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) or RSO2 (DataSource Maintenance) to monitor the status of the DataSource and replication.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction SM12 to check for any locks on the DataSource and resolve them if necessary.
  Reinitialize the DataSource: If the issue persists, consider reinitializing the DataSource. This can be done by deleting the existing DataSource and creating it again, but be cautious as this may lead to data loss if not handled properly.
  Consult Logs: Check the logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context on the issue.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1, RSO2, and SM12 for monitoring and managing DataSources.
  SAP Notes: Look for SAP Notes related to RSAOLTP021 for any specific patches or updates that may address this issue.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation on data extraction and replication processes to ensure that all configurations are set correctly.
  
  If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or BW team for further assistance.
