• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM1036 - Selection conditions replaced by last init. selection conditions ?

  The SAP error message RSM1036 ("Selection conditions replaced by last init. selection conditions") typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when you are working with queries or data extraction processes. This message indicates that the selection conditions you have defined in your query or data extraction have been overridden by the last initialization selection conditions.
  Cause:
  
  
  Initialization Process: This error often arises during the initialization of data loads or when executing queries that involve data extraction from InfoProviders. If the initialization process has specific selection conditions, these can override any custom selection conditions you have set.
  
  
  Query Design: If you are using a query that has been designed with specific selection criteria, and you attempt to run it with different criteria, the system may revert to the last saved initialization conditions.
  
  
  Data Source Configuration: The configuration of the data source or InfoProvider may have default selection conditions that take precedence over user-defined conditions.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Initialization Settings: Review the initialization settings for the data source or InfoProvider. Ensure that the selection conditions you want to apply are correctly set and saved.
  
  
  Modify Query Conditions: If you are working with a query, check the query designer to ensure that your selection conditions are correctly defined and saved. You may need to adjust the query to ensure that it does not revert to the last initialization conditions.
  
  
  Reinitialize Data Load: If the issue is related to data loading, consider reinitializing the data load process with the correct selection conditions. Make sure to save any changes you make to the selection criteria.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling selection conditions in your version of SAP BW.
  
  
  Check for User Exits or BAdIs: If there are any user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) implemented that might affect the selection conditions, review and adjust them as necessary.
