  The SAP error message RSM2859 indicates that there is an inconsistency between the records in the Persistent Staging Area (PSA) and the data in the InfoProvider. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when data is being loaded or processed.
  Cause:
  
  Data Load Issues: The most common cause of this error is that the data load process has not completed successfully, leading to discrepancies between the PSA and the target InfoProvider.
  Data Transformation Errors: If there are issues during the transformation process (e.g., incorrect mappings, data type mismatches), it can lead to inconsistencies.
  Manual Changes: If manual changes were made to the data in the PSA or InfoProvider, it could lead to inconsistencies.
  Data Deletion: If records were deleted from the InfoProvider but not from the PSA, or vice versa, this can also cause inconsistencies.
  Data Activation Issues: If the data in the PSA was not activated properly into the InfoProvider, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Load Status: Verify the status of the data load process. Ensure that all data loads have completed successfully without errors.
  Reprocess the Data: If there are inconsistencies, you may need to reprocess the data. This can involve:

  Reloading the data from the source system to the PSA.
  Activating the data from the PSA to the InfoProvider again.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to check the consistency of the data in the PSA and InfoProvider.
  Repair Inconsistencies: If you identify specific records that are causing the issue, you may need to manually correct or delete those records.
  Monitor Transformation Rules: Review the transformation rules to ensure that they are correctly defined and that there are no errors in the mappings.
  Check for Manual Changes: Ensure that no manual changes have been made to the data in the PSA or InfoProvider that could lead to inconsistencies.
