• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSLPO_DFG106 - Extraction mode is inconsistent (actual = '&1', target = '&2') ?

  The SAP error message RSLPO_DFG106 indicates that there is an inconsistency between the extraction mode set for the source system and the target system in a data extraction process. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Data Warehousing or SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when data is being extracted from a source system to a target system.
  Cause:
  The error message specifies that the extraction mode for the actual data source does not match the expected extraction mode for the target. The actual extraction mode (indicated by &1) and the target extraction mode (indicated by &2) are different, which leads to this inconsistency. Common causes include:
  
  
  Configuration Mismatch: The extraction mode settings in the source system and the target system are not aligned. For example, if the source system is set to "Delta" extraction mode but the target system is expecting "Full" extraction mode.
  
  
  Changes in Source System: If there have been recent changes in the source system's configuration or data model, it may lead to discrepancies in the extraction mode.
  
  
  Incorrect Data Source Settings: The data source settings in the BW system may not be correctly configured to match the source system's extraction mode.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSLPO_DFG106 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Extraction Mode Settings:
  
  Go to the DataSource in the source system and check the extraction mode settings.
  Compare these settings with the target system's expectations.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If there is a mismatch, adjust the extraction mode in either the source or target system to ensure they are consistent.
  This may involve changing the settings in the DataSource or the InfoPackage in the BW system.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Update DataSource:
  
  If necessary, you may need to recreate the DataSource in the BW system or update the existing one to reflect the correct extraction mode.
  
  
  
  Check for Recent Changes:
  
  Investigate if there have been any recent changes in the source system that could have affected the extraction mode. If so, revert or adjust those changes accordingly.
  
  
  
  Test the Extraction:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, perform a test extraction to ensure that the error is resolved and that data can be successfully extracted.
