  The SAP error message RSDD140, which states "Aggregate &1: Preparations for filling," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there are issues related to the aggregation process of data in InfoCubes. This error can arise during the process of filling aggregates, which are pre-calculated summaries of data that improve query performance.
  Causes:
  
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies or missing data in the underlying InfoObjects or InfoProviders that the aggregate relies on.
  Incorrect Aggregate Settings: The aggregate may not be properly defined or configured, leading to issues during the filling process.
  Data Load Issues: Problems during the data load process, such as failed data loads or incomplete data, can lead to this error.
  Locks or Conflicts: If there are locks on the InfoCube or aggregates due to ongoing processes, it can prevent the filling process from completing.
  Technical Issues: There may be technical issues with the BW system, such as memory constraints or performance bottlenecks.

  Check System Performance: Monitor the system performance and check for any memory issues or performance bottlenecks. You may need to optimize the BW system or increase resources if necessary.
  Rebuild the Aggregate: If the issue persists, consider rebuilding the aggregate. This can be done by deleting the existing aggregate and creating a new one.
