• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSLPO_DFG116 - User-defined DTP filter is inconsistent (actual = '&1', target = '&2') ?

  The SAP error message RSLPO_DFG116 indicates that there is an inconsistency between the actual data in the Data Transfer Process (DTP) and the target data. Specifically, it suggests that the user-defined filter criteria applied to the DTP do not match the expected values for the target.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Filter Values: The actual filter values being applied during the data transfer do not match the expected target values. This can happen if the filter criteria were changed after the DTP was created or if there are discrepancies in the data model.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the underlying data model (like changes in InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or transformations) can lead to inconsistencies.
  Incorrect DTP Configuration: The DTP might be incorrectly configured, leading to mismatched filter values.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check DTP Configuration: Review the DTP settings to ensure that the filter criteria are correctly defined. Make sure that the actual filter values align with the expected target values.
  Update Filters: If the filter values have changed, update the DTP filters to reflect the current requirements.
  Validate Data Model: Ensure that the data model has not changed in a way that would affect the DTP. If there have been changes, you may need to adjust the DTP accordingly.
  Test DTP Execution: After making changes, test the DTP execution to ensure that the error does not occur again.
  Check for Data Consistency: Ensure that the data in the source and target systems is consistent and that there are no discrepancies that could lead to this error.
