  The SAP error message RSBOLAP026 indicates that a function module was skipped during the trace process in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence). This message typically arises when tracing is enabled for a query or process, and certain function modules are not executed or are bypassed for some reason.
  Cause:
  
  
  Function Module Not Called: The function module specified in the error message was not called during the execution of the query or process. This could be due to various reasons, such as:
  
  The query did not require the function module for its execution.
  Conditional logic in the code that prevents the function module from being executed.
  The function module is not relevant for the specific data being processed.
  
  
  
  Trace Settings: The trace settings may not be configured correctly, leading to the function module being skipped. 
  
  
  Performance Optimization: Sometimes, certain function modules are intentionally skipped to optimize performance, especially if they are not needed for the current execution context.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Query Design: Review the design of the query or process to ensure that the function module should indeed be called. If it is expected to be called, verify the logic that leads to its execution.
  
  
  Review Trace Settings: Ensure that the trace settings are correctly configured. You can do this by:
  
  Going to the transaction code RSRT (Query Monitor) and checking the settings.
  Ensuring that the appropriate options for tracing are selected.
  
  
  
  Debugging: If you have access to the ABAP code, you can debug the process to see why the function module is being skipped. This may involve setting breakpoints or using the debugger to step through the execution.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Check the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific function module to understand its purpose and why it might not be called in your scenario.
  
  
  SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot determine the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance. They may provide insights based on the specific context of your implementation.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSRT (Query Monitor), SE37 (Function Module), and SE80 (Object Navigator) for further investigation.
  SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to RSBOLAP026 or the specific function module in the SAP Support Portal for any known issues or patches.
  Performance Considerations: Understand that skipping function modules can sometimes be a performance optimization, so ensure that the overall performance of your queries is acceptable.
