• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDSO_TBLSRV024 - Location check impossible, since number of 1st level partitions differs ?

  The SAP error message RSDSO_TBLSRV024 indicates that there is a discrepancy in the number of first-level partitions between the source and target data stores in a DataStore Object (DSO) or InfoProvider. This typically occurs during data loading or when trying to activate a DSO.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a mismatch in the partitioning of the data between the source and target. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Changes in Data Structure: If the structure of the source data has changed (e.g., new fields added, fields removed, or data types changed), it can lead to a mismatch in the expected partitions.
  Data Load Issues: If there were issues during previous data loads that resulted in incomplete or corrupted data, it could lead to inconsistencies in the partitioning.
  Manual Changes: If manual changes were made to the DSO or InfoProvider settings, it could lead to a mismatch in the partitioning.
  Transport Issues: If the DSO was transported between systems and the partitioning settings were not correctly replicated, it could lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Partitioning Settings: Verify the partitioning settings of both the source and target data stores. Ensure that they match in terms of the number of first-level partitions.
  
  
  Recreate the DSO: If the DSO is corrupted or has mismatched settings, consider recreating the DSO. This involves:
  
  Backing up the data.
  Deleting the existing DSO.
  Creating a new DSO with the correct settings.
  Reloading the data into the new DSO.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run a consistency check on the DSO to identify any inconsistencies in the data. This can often be done through transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) or RSD1 (InfoObject Maintenance).
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues: If the DSO was transported, ensure that all related objects and settings were transported correctly. You may need to re-transport the DSO or related objects.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. There may be patches or updates that can resolve the issue.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, consider reaching out to SAP Support for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1, RSD1, and RSPC for monitoring and managing data loads.
  SAP Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to DataStore Objects and InfoProviders for best practices on partitioning and data loading.
  Data Load Monitoring: Use the Data Load Monitor to check for any failed data loads that may have contributed to the issue.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the cause of the RSDSO_TBLSRV024 error.
