  The SAP error message RSM2854 typically relates to issues encountered during the extraction or loading of data in the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) environment, particularly when dealing with the Persistent Staging Area (PSA). The message often indicates that there are problems with the data records being read from the PSA.
  Cause:
  
  Data Quality Issues: The records in the PSA may contain invalid or inconsistent data that cannot be processed.
  Data Structure Changes: Changes in the data structure of the source system or the InfoObject definitions in BW can lead to mismatches.
  Extraction Errors: Issues during the data extraction process from the source system can lead to incomplete or corrupted records in the PSA.
  Load Process Issues: Problems during the data load process, such as incorrect transformation rules or mapping errors, can also trigger this error.
  PSA Table Locking: If the PSA table is locked by another process, it may prevent reading the records.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Quality: Review the records in the PSA for any inconsistencies or invalid data. Cleanse the data if necessary.
  Verify Data Structure: Ensure that the data structure in the source system matches the definitions in BW. If there have been changes, update the InfoObjects accordingly.

  Review Transformation Rules: Check the transformation rules and mappings to ensure they are correctly defined and aligned with the source data.
  Monitor Load Processes: Use transaction codes like RSA1 to monitor the data load processes and identify any issues that may be causing the error.
