• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM2852 - Data save in PSA & started ?

  The SAP error message RSM2852 typically indicates that there is an issue related to the data transfer process in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) environment, specifically when data is being saved in the Persistent Staging Area (PSA). The message "Data save in PSA & started" suggests that the data load process has been initiated but may not have completed successfully.
  Cause:
  
  Data Load Issues: The data load process may have encountered issues such as data format errors, missing data, or inconsistencies in the source data.
  PSA Table Locking: The PSA table may be locked due to another process accessing it, preventing the current process from saving data.
  Data Transfer Process (DTP) Configuration: There may be misconfigurations in the DTP settings, such as incorrect source or target settings.
  System Performance: High system load or performance issues can lead to timeouts or failures in the data load process.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the data load may not have the necessary authorizations to write to the PSA.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Source: Verify the source data for any inconsistencies or errors. Ensure that the data format matches the expected format in the target PSA.
  Monitor Process Chains: If the data load is part of a process chain, check the status of the entire chain to identify any preceding steps that may have failed.
  Review DTP Settings: Ensure that the DTP is correctly configured. Check the source and target settings, and make sure that the transformation rules are correctly defined.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for any locks on the PSA tables. If locks are found, determine the process holding the lock and resolve it.
  System Performance: Monitor system performance using transaction ST22 (dump analysis) or SM37 (job monitoring) to identify any performance bottlenecks.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the data load operation.
