  The SAP error message RSDS347 indicates that there is a mismatch between the fields defined in the DataSource and the fields expected in the target structure (like an InfoProvider or a DataStore Object). Specifically, it means that a field in the target structure is not mapped to any field in the DataSource.
  Cause:
  
  Field Mismatch: The DataSource may have been changed (fields added, removed, or renamed) after the target structure was created.
  Inconsistent Metadata: The metadata in the DataSource and the target structure may not be synchronized.
  Field Deletion: A field that was previously mapped in the DataSource has been deleted or is no longer available.
  Incorrect Configuration: The DataSource may not be configured correctly to include all necessary fields.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSDS347 error, follow these steps:

  Verify the field list of the DataSource and ensure that all required fields are present.
  
  
  
  Update DataSource:
  
  If fields have been added or removed, you may need to update the DataSource.
  In RSA1, select the DataSource and choose the option to "Change" or "Edit".
  Adjust the field mapping to ensure that all fields in the target structure are accounted for.
