What causes this issue?

The <LS>Overwrite</> update type (MOVE) has been set. MOVE was already
selected in other update rules for this DataStore object and key figure.

System Response

If a combination of characteristics in two InfoSources can be
overwritten, you may not get the desired result when you update to the
DataStore object, as only the first InfoSource to be loaded will be
overwritten.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAU195 - Data fields already updated for InfoSource & with MOVE ?

  The SAP error message RSAU195 indicates that there is an issue with the data update process in the context of an InfoSource in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). Specifically, this error occurs when the system detects that data fields have already been updated for a particular InfoSource, and it is trying to perform a MOVE operation that conflicts with the existing data.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Data Update: The error typically arises when there is an attempt to update data fields that have already been processed or updated in the InfoSource.
  Incorrect Data Flow: The data flow might be incorrectly configured, leading to multiple updates of the same data fields.
  Data Extraction Issues: There may be issues with the data extraction process that cause the same data to be processed multiple times.
  Transformation Logic: The transformation logic in the data flow might be incorrectly set up, leading to conflicts during the data update.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Flow Configuration: Review the data flow configuration for the InfoSource to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no duplicate data updates.
  Review Transformation Rules: Examine the transformation rules associated with the InfoSource to ensure that they are not causing conflicts. Make sure that the MOVE operations are correctly defined and do not attempt to update already updated fields.
  Data Extraction Process: Verify the data extraction process to ensure that it is not pulling the same data multiple times. This may involve checking the source system and the extraction logic.
  Data Load Monitoring: Monitor the data load process to identify any anomalies or errors that may indicate why the fields are being updated multiple times.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in the data flow to manage situations where data might be duplicated or incorrectly processed.
