Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDA161 - Processing successfully completed after reaching target status '&1' ?

  The SAP error message RSDA161 indicates that a Data Transfer Process (DTP) has completed successfully but has reached a target status that is not what you might expect. The message typically means that the DTP has finished its execution, but the data was not loaded into the target as intended, or it has reached a specific status that requires further attention.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Target Status: The target object (like an InfoProvider) may have a status that prevents further data loading. This could be due to various reasons such as:
  
  The target is in a "locked" state.
  The target has reached its maximum data limit.
  The target is in a state that requires manual intervention (e.g., a request needs to be activated).
  
  
  
  Data Quality Issues: There may be issues with the data being loaded, such as:
  
  Data inconsistencies or errors that prevent successful loading.
  Data not meeting the required format or constraints.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: The DTP or the target InfoProvider may not be configured correctly, leading to unexpected behavior.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Target Status: 
  
  Go to the target InfoProvider and check its status. If it is locked or in a state that requires activation, resolve that issue first.
  If the target is an InfoCube, check if it needs to be activated.
  
  
  
  Review DTP Settings: 
  
  Ensure that the DTP is configured correctly. Check the extraction and loading settings to ensure they align with the target InfoProvider's requirements.
  
  
  
  Data Quality Check: 
  
  Review the data being loaded for any inconsistencies or errors. You may need to run a data quality check or validation process to identify issues.
  
  
  
  Monitor Process Chains: 
  
  If the DTP is part of a process chain, check the entire chain for any errors or warnings that might affect the DTP execution.
  
  
  
  Logs and Traces: 
  
  Check the logs for the DTP execution to identify any warnings or errors that might provide more context on why the target status is not as expected.
  
  
  
  Re-run the DTP: 
  
  After addressing any issues, you may need to re-run the DTP to see if the problem persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to monitor and manage DTPs and InfoProviders.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to the specific version of SAP BW you are using. There may be patches or updates that address this issue.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for detailed information on DTPs, InfoProviders, and data loading processes.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the issue related to the RSDA161 error message.
