• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM787 - InfoCube request ID & is already scheduled: no aggregation possible ?

  The SAP error message RSM787 indicates that an InfoCube request is already scheduled for processing, which prevents any further aggregation from occurring on that request. This typically happens in the context of data loading or processing in SAP BW (Business Warehouse).
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Requests: The error usually arises when multiple requests are trying to aggregate data into the same InfoCube simultaneously. If one request is already in the process of being aggregated, any subsequent requests will be blocked from performing aggregation until the first one is completed.
  Long-Running Processes: If a previous request is taking longer than expected to complete, it can lead to this error for any new requests that are initiated during that time.
  System Configuration: There may be configuration settings in the BW system that limit the number of concurrent requests or the way requests are handled.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Request Status: Use transaction code RSA1 to check the status of the requests in the InfoCube. Identify if there is a request that is currently in process and wait for it to complete.
  Monitor Process Chains: If the requests are part of a process chain, monitor the process chain to see if it is stuck or taking longer than expected. You can use transaction code RSPC to check the status of process chains.
  Cancel Stuck Requests: If you find that a request is stuck and not progressing, you may need to cancel it. This can be done in the request monitor (transaction RSA1 or RSMO).
  Adjust Load Strategy: If this is a recurring issue, consider adjusting your data load strategy to avoid overlapping requests. This may involve scheduling loads at different times or optimizing the data load process.
  Increase Parallel Processing: If your system allows it, you may want to increase the number of parallel processes that can run to handle multiple requests more efficiently.
