• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAU320 - -> Start import postprocessing update of master data (attributes) ?

  The SAP error message RSAU320, which indicates an issue with starting the import postprocessing update of master data attributes, typically arises during the data import process in SAP systems, particularly in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA.
  Cause:
  The RSAU320 error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data being imported, such as missing attributes or incorrect data formats.
  Master Data Locking: The master data might be locked by another process or user, preventing the import from proceeding.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect settings in the data source or transformation rules can lead to errors during the import process.
  System Performance: If the system is under heavy load, it may not be able to process the import in a timely manner, leading to timeouts or failures.
  Transport Issues: If the data is being transported from one system to another, there may be issues with the transport itself.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSAU320 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Data Consistency:
  
  Review the data being imported for any inconsistencies or missing attributes.
  Validate the data formats and ensure they match the expected formats in the target system.
  
  
  
  Release Locks:
  
  Check if the master data is locked by another process. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to view and release locks if necessary.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Verify the configuration settings for the data source and transformation rules. Ensure that they are correctly set up to handle the incoming data.
  
  
  
  Monitor System Performance:
  
  Check system performance metrics to see if the system is under heavy load. If so, consider scheduling the import during off-peak hours.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Logs:
  
  If the data is being transported, review the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate issues with the transport process.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Import:
  
  After addressing the above issues, attempt to re-run the import process to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), SM12 (Display and Delete Locks), and ST22 (Dump Analysis) for troubleshooting.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to RSAU320. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common errors.
  Logs and Traces: Review application logs (SLG1) and system logs (SM21) for additional context on the error.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the RSAU320 error effectively. If the problem persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
