• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM1048 - Loading method of InfoPackage &1 differs from &2 to &3 ?

  The SAP error message RSM1048 indicates a discrepancy in the loading method of an InfoPackage. Specifically, it means that the loading method defined in the InfoPackage does not match the loading method of the DataSource or the target InfoObject. This can occur during the data loading process in SAP BW (Business Warehouse).
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  The InfoPackage is configured to use a different loading method than what is defined in the DataSource or the target InfoObject.
  There may be a mismatch between the settings in the InfoPackage and the DataSource, such as:
  
  The InfoPackage is set to load data in a different mode (e.g., full load vs. delta load).
  The DataSource has been changed or updated, and the InfoPackage has not been adjusted accordingly.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSM1048 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the InfoPackage Settings:
  
  Go to the InfoPackage in question and review its settings.
  Ensure that the loading method (e.g., full, delta, etc.) matches the expected method for the DataSource.
  
  
  
  Review the DataSource Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the DataSource in the SAP BW system.
  Check the loading method defined for the DataSource and ensure it aligns with the InfoPackage settings.
  
  
  
  Adjust the InfoPackage:
  
  If there is a mismatch, modify the InfoPackage to match the loading method of the DataSource.
  Save the changes and try to execute the data load again.
  
  
  
  Check for Changes in DataSource:
  
  If the DataSource has been modified (e.g., changed from delta to full), ensure that all dependent InfoPackages are updated accordingly.
  
  
  
  Recreate the InfoPackage (if necessary):
  
  If the issue persists, consider recreating the InfoPackage to ensure that all settings are correctly aligned with the DataSource.
