• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSIS303 - Invalid object version &1; only 'A' or 'D' is permitted ?

  The SAP error message RSIS303 indicates that there is an issue with the version of an object in the SAP system. Specifically, the error message states that the object version is invalid and only 'A' (active) or 'D' (deleted) versions are permitted. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when dealing with InfoObjects, DataSources, or other objects that have versioning.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Object Version: The object you are trying to access or manipulate has a version that is neither 'A' nor 'D'. This could happen if the object is in a state that is not recognized by the system.
  Corrupted Metadata: There may be corruption in the metadata of the object, leading to an invalid version being referenced.
  Transport Issues: If the object was transported from one system to another, it might not have been transported correctly, leading to inconsistencies in the object version.
  Development or Configuration Errors: Errors during the development or configuration of the object can lead to invalid states.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Version: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) or SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the version of the object. Ensure that it is either 'A' or 'D'.
  Re-activate the Object: If the object is in an invalid state, try to re-activate it. This can often resolve issues with object versions.
  Check Transport Logs: If the object was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate issues during the transport process.
  Repair Metadata: If you suspect metadata corruption, you may need to repair or recreate the object. This could involve deleting the object and recreating it or using tools provided by SAP to repair the metadata.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1, SE11, SE80, and SE37 for managing InfoObjects, DataSources, and other related objects.
  SAP Documentation: Review SAP documentation for information on object versioning and management in BW/BI.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
