How To Fix RSDS183 - D version in source system missing for DataSource &1(&2)

RSDS183 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSDS - New DataSource

• Message number: 183

• Message text: D version in source system missing for DataSource &1(&2)

What causes this issue?

No D version header is available in the system after activating
DataSource &v1&(&v2&) and replicating the DataSource.
The D version header should be generated during replication (also in the
Content development system).

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

In the source system, check whether the D version is available in
transaction <DS:TRAN.RSA5>RSA5</>or table ROOSOURCE.

Procedure for System Administrators

If the D version is missing, delivering BI Content (the shadow version
of the DataSource - SHDS) is problematic.
The scenario cannot normally be activated in a customer system since the
DataSource is not available in the source system.
