• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM077 - Request & already updated in target & by DTP request &(&) ?

  The SAP error message RSM077 indicates that a data request (specifically, a data transfer request) has already been updated in the target system by a Data Transfer Process (DTP) request. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when you are trying to load data into a target InfoProvider, and the system detects that the request you are trying to process has already been successfully updated.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Request: The request you are trying to load has already been processed and updated in the target InfoProvider.
  Data Transfer Process (DTP) Configuration: The DTP might be configured in such a way that it does not allow reprocessing of requests that have already been updated.
  Request Status: The request status in the InfoProvider might indicate that it has already been successfully loaded, leading to this error when attempting to load it again.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Request Status: Go to the Data Warehousing Workbench and check the status of the request in the target InfoProvider. If it has already been updated, you may not need to load it again.
  Use a New Request: If you need to load the data again, consider creating a new data request instead of trying to reload the existing one.
  Delete or Manage Requests: If you need to reprocess the data, you may need to delete the existing request from the target InfoProvider. Be cautious with this approach, as it may affect data integrity.
  Adjust DTP Settings: Review the DTP settings to ensure that it allows for the reprocessing of requests if that is necessary for your scenario.
  Check for Errors in Previous Loads: If the previous load had issues, ensure that those are resolved before attempting to load again.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to monitor and manage your data requests.
  Logs and Monitoring: Check the logs for the DTP and the InfoProvider to gather more information about the previous requests and their statuses.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to this error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
