• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDHA420 - Active version of DataStore object '&1' missing ?

  The SAP error message RSDHA420 indicates that the active version of a DataStore Object (DSO) is missing. This can occur in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when the system is unable to find the active version of a DSO that is required for data processing or reporting.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Activation: The DSO may not have been activated after it was created or modified. In SAP BW, changes to a DSO must be activated to create an active version.
  Deletion of Active Version: The active version of the DSO may have been deleted or corrupted.
  Transport Issues: If the DSO was transported from one system to another, the active version may not have been included in the transport request.
  System Errors: There may be underlying system issues or inconsistencies in the BW system that prevent the active version from being recognized.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Activate the DSO: 
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction code RSA1).
  Navigate to the DataStore Object in question.
  Check if the DSO is in a state that requires activation. If so, activate it to create the active version.
  
  
  
  Check for Deletion:
  
  Verify if the active version has been deleted. If it has, you may need to recreate the DSO or restore it from a backup if available.
  
  
  
  Transport Check:
  
  If the DSO was recently transported, ensure that the transport request included all necessary components. You may need to re-transport the DSO or manually activate it in the target system.
  
  
  
  System Consistency Check:
  
  Run consistency checks in the BW system to identify and resolve any underlying issues. You can use transaction codes like RSA1 or RSRV to perform these checks.
  
  
  
  Recreate the DSO:
  
  If the above steps do not resolve the issue, consider recreating the DSO. This involves creating a new DSO with the same structure and settings, and then reloading the data.
