• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDSO_ROLLBACK038 - Specifying I_REQUEST and other request selecting parameters not supported ?

  The SAP error message RSDSO_ROLLBACK038 indicates that there is an issue with the way the request parameters are specified in a data extraction or data loading process, particularly when using the DataSource in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). The error specifically states that specifying I_REQUEST along with other request selection parameters is not supported.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises when you attempt to use the I_REQUEST parameter in conjunction with other selection parameters in a data extraction or loading process. In SAP BW, the I_REQUEST parameter is used to specify a particular data request, and it is not compatible with other selection criteria (like date ranges, filters, etc.) in the same context.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Code/Query: Check the code or query where the I_REQUEST parameter is being used. Ensure that you are not mixing it with other selection parameters.
  
  
  Use Only One Method: If you need to specify a particular request, use only the I_REQUEST parameter without any additional selection criteria. If you need to filter data based on other criteria, do not use I_REQUEST.
  
  
  Modify the Data Extraction Logic: If you need to extract data based on specific criteria, consider modifying your extraction logic to either:
  
  Use I_REQUEST alone for a specific request.
  Use other selection parameters without I_REQUEST to filter the data.
  
  
  
  Check Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific DataSource or function module you are using to understand the correct usage of parameters.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the extraction or loading process to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes related to the specific DataSource or function module for any known issues or updates.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums to see if other users have encountered similar issues and what solutions they have found.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) and RSA3 (DataSource Test) for testing and troubleshooting.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the RSDSO_ROLLBACK038 error and successfully execute your data extraction or loading process in SAP BW.
