• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM2718 - Messages saved for &1 data records; request green acc. to configuration ?

  The SAP error message RSM2718 indicates that messages have been saved for a certain number of data records, and the request is marked as green according to the configuration. This message typically arises in the context of data processing in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or during data loading processes.
  Cause:
  
  Data Quality Issues: The message usually indicates that there are warnings or informational messages related to the data records being processed. This could be due to data quality issues, such as missing values, incorrect formats, or other validation errors.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration settings in the data transfer process (DTP) or InfoPackage may allow for certain types of messages to be logged without failing the entire process. This means that while the data load was successful (hence the green status), there are still messages that need to be reviewed.
  Custom Logic: If there is custom logic implemented in the data flow, it may generate messages based on specific conditions that do not necessarily stop the data load.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Messages: Check the detailed messages that have been logged for the data records. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., RSA1 for Data Warehousing Workbench) and reviewing the logs for the data load.
  Data Quality Checks: Investigate the data records that generated messages. Look for any anomalies or issues that need to be addressed, such as missing or incorrect data.
  Adjust Configuration: If necessary, adjust the configuration settings in the DTP or InfoPackage to handle messages differently. For example, you might want to change the settings to treat certain warnings as errors if they are critical.
  Testing: After making changes, re-run the data load to ensure that the issues have been resolved and that the messages are no longer generated.
  
  Related Information:
