• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSBK057 - &1: Duplicate D version (&2) ?

  The SAP error message RSBK057 indicates that there is a duplicate D version (data version) for a specific InfoProvider in the context of the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) system. This error typically occurs when you are trying to load data into an InfoProvider, and the system detects that there is already an existing data version with the same identifier.
  Cause:
  
  
  Duplicate Data Version: The primary cause of this error is that the data version you are trying to load already exists in the system. This can happen if:
  
  A previous data load was not completed successfully, leaving behind a version that is still marked as active.
  There was an attempt to load data with the same version identifier multiple times.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: Sometimes, the configuration settings for the InfoProvider or the data load process may lead to the creation of duplicate versions.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSBK057 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Data Versions:
  
  Go to the relevant InfoProvider in the SAP BW system and check the existing data versions. You can do this using transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) or RSO2 (DataSource Maintenance).
  Identify the existing D version that is causing the conflict.
  
  
  
  Delete or Archive the Duplicate Version:
  
  If the existing version is no longer needed, you can delete it. This can usually be done through the InfoProvider management interface.
  If you need to keep the data, consider archiving it instead of deleting.
  
  
  
  Adjust Load Process:
  
  Review the data load process to ensure that it is not attempting to create a duplicate version. This may involve checking the settings in the data load process or the transformation rules.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Data Load:
  
  After resolving the duplicate version issue, re-run the data load process to ensure that the data is loaded successfully without errors.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific patches or updates related to this error message. SAP frequently releases updates that may address known issues.
