  The SAP error message RSAR735 indicates that there is a mismatch in the number of decimal places for a field in a data transfer process. This typically occurs during the extraction or loading of data in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or when working with data sources and InfoObjects.
  Cause:
  The error message RSAR735 is triggered when:
  
  The decimal places defined for a field in the source system (e.g., an SAP ERP system) differ from those defined in the target system (e.g., SAP BW).
  For example, if a field is defined with 2 decimal places in the source system and is defined with 3 decimal places in the target system, this inconsistency will lead to the error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSAR735 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Field Definitions:
