  The SAP error message RSDS337 indicates that there is an issue with a remote subscription in the context of SAP Data Warehousing or SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This error typically arises when you are trying to create or manage a remote subscription for a DataSource that is not configured correctly for delta processing.
  Cause:
  The error message RSDS337 is triggered when:
  
  You are attempting to create a remote subscription for a DataSource that is not set up to support delta extraction.
  The DataSource is configured for full data extraction only, and you are trying to use it in a context that requires delta extraction.
  The delta field specified in the error message is not compatible with the remote subscription type you are trying to use.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSDS337 error, you can take the following steps:

  Use the Correct Subscription Type:
  
  If the DataSource does not support delta extraction, you may need to change your approach. Consider using a full data load instead of a delta load.

  Review Delta Fields:
  
  Ensure that the delta field specified in the error message is correctly defined and is compatible with the remote subscription type you are using.
