• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDS_ACCESS036 - Error while extracting field list of UD Connect object: &1 ?

  The SAP error message RSDS_ACCESS036 typically occurs when there is an issue with accessing the field list of a DataSource, particularly in the context of SAP's Data Warehousing or Business Intelligence (BI) systems. This error is often related to the extraction of data from a source system, such as an SAP ERP system, into a Data Warehouse.
  Cause
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the extraction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the DataSource or the underlying tables.
  
  
  DataSource Configuration: The DataSource may not be properly configured or activated. This can include issues with the field mapping or the structure of the DataSource.
  
  
  Technical Issues: There may be technical issues with the underlying database or the connection to the source system. This could include network issues, database locks, or other connectivity problems.
  
  
  Missing or Inactive Objects: The DataSource or the underlying objects (like InfoObjects or InfoProviders) may be missing or inactive.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the DataSource was recently transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies or missing components.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the RSDS_ACCESS036 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the DataSource and the underlying tables. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  
  
  
  Verify DataSource Configuration:
  
  Go to the DataSource in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) and check its configuration. Ensure that it is activated and that all fields are correctly mapped.
  
  
  
  Check Technical Settings:
  
  Review the technical settings of the DataSource. Ensure that the source system connection is active and that there are no issues with the database.
  
  
  
  Test the Connection:
  
  Use transaction RSA3 to test the DataSource. This can help identify if the issue is with the DataSource itself or with the extraction process.
  
  
  
  Review Logs:
  
  Check the system logs (transaction SM21) and the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages that may provide more context.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the DataSource:
  
  If the DataSource appears to be inactive or misconfigured, try reactivating it. You can do this in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
