RSDS198 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSDS - New DataSource

• Message number: 198

• Message text: Request &1 not extracted; request is in obsolete version of DataSource

What causes this issue?

The request&V1& was loaded into the PSA table of the DataSource when the
DataSource had a different structure to the current one. Incompatible
changes have been made to the DataSource since then and the request
cannot be extracted with the DTP anymore.

System Response

The request is in PSA&V2&, version&V3&. The current PSA version is&V4&.
An extraction would lead to a short dump because of field
incompatibilities.

How to fix this error?

If you no longer require the data, you do not need to take any further
action.
If you do still require the data, you can just extract it by creating a
generic DataSource in the Myself source system in PSA&V2&, version&V3&.
You can find the technical name of the PSA table in the table RSTSODS
with the specified PSA name and version. Convert the data using a
separate transformation into the new target format.
