• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM2087 - &1 requests preselected for the next manual execution of DTP &2 ?

  The SAP error message RSM2087 indicates that there are requests that have been preselected for the next manual execution of a Data Transfer Process (DTP). This message typically occurs in the context of data extraction and loading processes in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA.
  Cause:
  The error message RSM2087 is not necessarily an error in the traditional sense but rather an informational message indicating that there are requests that have been preselected for processing. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Manual Execution Requirement: The DTP is set up to require manual execution, and there are requests that are ready to be processed.
  Data Load Status: The requests may be in a status that allows them to be processed, but they have not yet been executed.
  Selection Criteria: The DTP may have specific selection criteria that have resulted in certain requests being preselected.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve or address the message RSM2087, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Manual Execution: If you are ready to process the preselected requests, you can manually execute the DTP. This can be done through the Data Warehousing Workbench or the relevant transaction code (e.g., RSA1).
  
  
  Check DTP Settings: Review the settings of the DTP to ensure that it is configured correctly for your data loading requirements. If you want to automate the process, consider changing the DTP settings to allow for automatic execution.
  
  
  Monitor Request Status: Use transaction codes like RSA1 or RSMO to monitor the status of the requests and ensure that they are in a state that allows for processing.
  
  
  Review Logs: Check the logs for any additional information or warnings that may provide context for the preselected requests.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the DTP configuration or the implications of the message, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP BW administrator.
  
  
  Related Information:

  Request Management: Understanding how requests are managed in SAP BW is crucial. Requests can be in various states (e.g., green, yellow, red) based on their processing status.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSMO (Monitor Data Transfer Processes), and RSMO (Monitor Data Load).
