  The SAP error message RSDU_REPART755, which indicates "Unable to adjust metadata in table RSDODSO," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there are issues related to the metadata of DataStore Objects (DSOs). This error can arise during various operations, such as data loading, activation, or when trying to adjust the structure of a DSO.
  Causes:
  
  Inconsistent Metadata: The metadata of the DSO may be inconsistent or corrupted, possibly due to previous failed operations or system issues.
  Locking Issues: There may be locks on the DSO or related objects that prevent the adjustment of metadata.
  Transport Issues: If the DSO structure was transported from another system, there might be inconsistencies between the source and target systems.
  Database Issues: Problems with the underlying database, such as connectivity issues or corruption, can also lead to this error.
  Version Mismatch: If there are version mismatches between the BW system and the underlying database or if the BW system is not properly updated, it can lead to metadata adjustment issues.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the DSO or related objects. If locks are found, they should be released.
  Repair Metadata: You can try to repair the metadata by using transaction RSD1 to access the DSO and then performing a "Repair" operation.
  Re-activate the DSO: Sometimes, simply reactivating the DSO can resolve the issue. This can be done in the DSO maintenance screen.
  Check Transport Logs: If the DSO was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate issues with the transport.
  Database Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the database to ensure that there are no underlying issues affecting the DSO.
  System Restart: In some cases, a restart of the SAP system may help clear temporary issues that are causing the error.
