• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR656 - InfoSource & (&) is up-to-date ?

  The SAP error message RSAR656 indicates that the InfoSource you are trying to load data into is already up-to-date. This typically occurs in the context of data extraction and loading processes, particularly when working with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence).
  Cause:
  
  No New Data: The most common cause of this error is that there is no new data available in the source system for the specified InfoSource. The data extraction process checks for new records, and if none are found, it will return this message.
  Data Load Status: The InfoSource may have already been updated with the latest data, and the system recognizes that there is no need for another load.
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used for the data extraction may not match any records in the source system, leading to the conclusion that the InfoSource is up-to-date.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Source System: Verify that there is indeed new data available in the source system. You can do this by checking the relevant tables or reports in the source system.
  Review Load Process: Ensure that the data load process is correctly configured and that the extraction logic is set up to pull the intended records.
  Adjust Selection Criteria: If you are using specific selection criteria for the data extraction, review and adjust them to ensure they align with the data you expect to extract.
  Monitor Data Load: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to monitor the data load process and check for any issues or warnings that may indicate why no new data is being loaded.
  Re-run the Load: If you have confirmed that new data exists, try re-running the data load process to see if the issue persists.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSMO (Monitor Data Load), and RSA3 (Data Extraction Test) to help diagnose and resolve issues.
  Data Flow: Understand the data flow from the source system to the InfoSource, including any transformations or filters that may be applied during the extraction process.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may provide additional insights or solutions related to this error message.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or BW team for further investigation.
