• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDME766 - Delta upload is not allowed ?

  The SAP error message RSDME766, which states "Delta upload is not allowed," typically occurs in the context of data extraction from SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) systems. This error indicates that a delta upload is not permitted for the specific data source or InfoProvider you are trying to use.
  Causes:
  
  
  Delta Mechanism Not Activated: The delta mechanism for the data source may not be activated. This can happen if the data source is not configured to support delta loads.
  
  
  Data Source Type: The data source may be of a type that does not support delta uploads. For example, some data sources are designed for full loads only.
  
  
  Initialization Not Completed: If the initialization process for the delta load has not been completed successfully, the delta upload will not be allowed.
  
  
  Data Source Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the data source in the SAP BW system, such as missing settings or incorrect parameters.
  
  
  Data Source Status: The data source might be in a status that does not allow delta uploads, such as being in a "not active" state.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Delta Activation: Ensure that the delta mechanism is activated for the data source. You can do this in the DataSource maintenance transaction (RSA1) by checking the settings of the data source.
  
  
  Perform Initialization: If the delta initialization has not been performed, you need to execute the initialization process. This typically involves performing a full load first to establish the initial dataset.
  
  
  Review Data Source Type: Verify that the data source you are using is designed to support delta uploads. If it is not, you may need to switch to a different data source that does support delta.
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the data source in the SAP BW system. Ensure that all necessary settings are correctly configured.
  
  
  Activate Data Source: If the data source is inactive, activate it in the DataSource maintenance transaction.
