• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDMD113 - Master data cannot be deleted during a change run ?

  The SAP error message RSDMD113 indicates that a master data object cannot be deleted during a change run. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when there are ongoing processes that depend on the master data you are trying to delete.
  Cause:
  
  Active Change Run: The most common cause of this error is that there is an active change run that is currently processing data. During this time, the system locks the master data to ensure data integrity.
  Data Dependencies: The master data you are trying to delete may be linked to other data objects or processes that are currently active or in use.
  Data Consistency: SAP enforces data consistency rules, and deleting master data while it is being used can lead to inconsistencies in reporting and analysis.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Change Runs: Before attempting to delete the master data, check if there are any active change runs. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., RSA1 for Data Warehousing Workbench) and checking the status of the change runs.
  Wait for Completion: If there is an active change run, wait for it to complete before attempting to delete the master data again.
  Cancel Change Run: If necessary and if it is appropriate to do so, you can cancel the active change run. However, be cautious with this approach as it may affect data integrity.
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that there are no other processes or data objects that depend on the master data you are trying to delete. This may involve checking for any active queries, reports, or data flows that utilize the master data.
  Use Transaction RSD1: If you are sure that the master data is not in use, you can try to delete it using transaction RSD1 (Master Data Maintenance) after ensuring that all processes are completed.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSD1 (Master Data Maintenance), and RSMO (Change Run Management).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific patches or updates related to this error message, as there may be known issues or fixes provided by SAP.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation on master data management and change run processes to better understand the implications of deleting master data.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the RSDMD113 error and successfully manage your master data in SAP.
