• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM2166 - Highest evaluated request in standard DSO &1 is request &2(&3) ?

  The SAP error message RSM2166 indicates that there is an issue with the data loading process into a DataStore Object (DSO) in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). Specifically, it means that the highest evaluated request in the standard DSO is not the one you are trying to load, which can lead to inconsistencies in the data.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Consistency Issues: The error typically arises when there are inconsistencies between the requests in the DSO. This can happen if:
  
  There are requests that have not been fully processed or activated.
  There are requests that have been deleted or are in a state that does not allow further processing.
  The request you are trying to load is not the latest or highest evaluated request.
  
  
  
  Request Status: The request you are trying to load may be in a status that does not allow it to be processed, such as being in a "failed" state.
  
  
  Data Activation: The data in the DSO may not have been activated properly, leading to discrepancies in the request numbers.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Request Status: Go to the DSO and check the status of the requests. Ensure that the request you are trying to load is the highest evaluated request. You can do this by navigating to the DSO in the SAP BW system and reviewing the request logs.
  
  
  Activate Requests: If there are requests that are not activated, activate them. You can do this by selecting the request and choosing the "Activate" option.
  
  
  Delete Inconsistent Requests: If there are requests that are causing issues, consider deleting them if they are not needed. Be cautious with this step, as it may lead to data loss.
  
  
  Reprocess the Load: After ensuring that the requests are in the correct state, try reprocessing the data load. Make sure to monitor the process for any further errors.
  
  
  Check for Data Integrity: Ensure that the data being loaded does not violate any integrity constraints that may be set on the DSO.
  
  
  Consult Logs: Review the process chain logs and the DSO logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context on the issue.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to access the DSO and check the requests.
  DataStore Object (DSO): Understand the structure and purpose of the DSO in SAP BW, as it is crucial for data storage and retrieval.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to this error message or provide patches and updates.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or BW team for further investigation, as they may have additional tools and insights to resolve the issue.
