• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSIM022 - DataSource &1 does not return data ?

  The SAP error message RSIM022 indicates that a specific DataSource (identified by &1) is not returning any data. This can occur in various scenarios, particularly when working with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence). Below are some common causes, potential solutions, and related information for this error:
  Causes:
  
  
  No Data in the Source System: The DataSource may not have any data available in the source system for the specified selection criteria (e.g., date range, filters).
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the data extraction may be too restrictive, leading to no data being returned.
  
  
  Data Transfer Issues: There may be issues with the data transfer process, such as failed data loads or incorrect configurations.
  
  
  DataSource Configuration: The DataSource may not be properly configured or activated in the SAP BW system.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the data extraction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data.
  
  
  DataSource Version: If the DataSource has been changed or updated, the version in the BW system may not match the source system.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Source System Data: Verify that there is data available in the source system for the DataSource. You can do this by running a query or report directly in the source system.
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Examine the selection criteria used for the data extraction. Ensure that they are not overly restrictive and that they match the data available in the source system.
  
  
  Monitor Data Transfer: Check the data transfer process in the SAP BW system. Look for any errors or warnings in the data load monitor (transaction RSA1) and resolve any issues found.
  
  
  Activate DataSource: Ensure that the DataSource is activated in the SAP BW system. You can do this in the DataSource maintenance transaction (transaction RSA6).
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the DataSource and the underlying data.
  
  
  Update DataSource Version: If the DataSource has been modified in the source system, ensure that the corresponding version in the BW system is updated. You may need to replicate the DataSource again.
  
  
  Test DataSource: Use the DataSource test functionality (transaction RSA3) to test the DataSource directly and see if it returns any data.

  Documentation: Review the SAP documentation for the specific DataSource to understand its configuration and data extraction logic.
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the RSIM022 error and implement the appropriate solution.
