• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSBK098 - Target &1 (type &2) is not supported ?

  The SAP error message RSBK098 indicates that there is an issue with the target object in a data transfer process, specifically that the target object (like a DataStore Object (DSO), InfoCube, or other data targets) is not supported for the operation you are trying to perform. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when loading data into a target that is not compatible with the data being processed.
  Causes:
  
  Incompatible Target Type: The target object you are trying to load data into may not be compatible with the data source or the type of data being transferred.
  Incorrect Configuration: The target object may not be properly configured to accept the data being loaded.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model or structure of the target object may have occurred, making it incompatible with the current data load.
  Missing Authorizations: The user executing the data load may not have the necessary authorizations to write to the target object.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Target Object Type: Verify that the target object type is appropriate for the data being loaded. For example, ensure that you are not trying to load data into a DSO when the data is meant for an InfoCube.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration of the target object in the SAP BW system. Ensure that it is set up correctly to accept the incoming data.
  Data Model Validation: If there have been recent changes to the data model, validate that the target object still aligns with the data structure being loaded.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the data load operation. This can be checked in the user roles and authorizations assigned in the SAP system.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific target object and data load process for any additional requirements or limitations.
