• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSIM006 - Request status in data target &1 is &2 ?

  The SAP error message RSIM006 indicates an issue with the status of a data request in a data target (such as an InfoCube or DataStore Object) in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) system. The message typically reads: "Request status in data target &1 is &2," where "&1" represents the data target and "&2" represents the status of the request.
  Cause:
  The error can occur due to several reasons, including:
  
  
  Request Status: The request may be in a status that does not allow further processing. Common statuses include:
  
  Cancelled: The request was cancelled and cannot be processed further.
  Failed: The request encountered an error during loading.
  In Process: The request is still being processed and cannot be reprocessed until it is completed.
  
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be issues with the data being loaded, such as duplicates or data format problems.
  
  
  Locking Issues: The data target may be locked by another process, preventing the current request from being processed.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the data target or the data flow that need to be addressed.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSIM006 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Request Status: 
  
  Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction code RSA1) and navigate to the data target (InfoCube or DataStore Object).
  Check the status of the request in the monitor. If it is in a failed or cancelled state, you may need to delete or reprocess the request.
  
  
  
  Reprocess or Delete the Request:
  
  If the request is in a failed state, you can try to reprocess it. If it is cancelled, you may need to delete it and reload the data.
  Use transaction code RSA3 to check the data source and ensure that the data is correct.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  Ensure that no other processes are locking the data target. You can use transaction code SM12 to check for locks and release them if necessary.
  
  
  
  Review Data Integrity:
  
  Check the data being loaded for any integrity issues. Ensure that there are no duplicates or format issues that could cause the load to fail.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the data target and the data flow to ensure everything is set up correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult Logs:
  
  Check the error logs for more detailed information about why the request failed. You can find logs in transaction code SLG1.
