SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSMDP - Master Data Processing

• Message number: 816

• Message text: Check canceled due to missing SID values for &1 table

What causes this issue?

The consistency check was terminated because data records are missing in
the SID table of the characteristic in comparison to the &V1& table. The
&V1& table contains a total of &V3& data records. Of these data records,
only &V2& data records have corresponding data records in the SID table.
The consistency of the SID table, however, is mandatory in order to
perform this consistency check.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Run the test
Versions in SID,P,Q
of program RSDMD_CHECKPRG_ALL for the characteristic. This test returns
detailed information about the data records missing in the SID table.
Since it is a serious inconsistency, an automatic repair is not
possible.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSMDP816 - Check canceled due to missing SID values for &1 table ?

  The SAP error message RSMDP816 indicates that a check was canceled because there are missing SID (Surrogate ID) values for a specific table in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This typically occurs when the system is trying to perform operations that require SID values, such as data extraction, loading, or reporting, but cannot find the necessary SID entries.
  Cause:
  
  Missing SID Values: The most common cause of this error is that the SID values for the specified table are missing or not generated. This can happen if the data load process was interrupted or if there were issues during the data extraction process.
  Data Model Issues: If the data model is not properly defined or if there are inconsistencies in the data model, it can lead to missing SID values.
  Data Source Issues: If the data source from which the data is being extracted does not provide the necessary keys or if there are issues with the data source configuration, it can result in missing SIDs.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Load Process: Review the data load process to ensure that it completed successfully. If it was interrupted, you may need to restart the data load.
  Rebuild SIDs: You can rebuild the SIDs for the affected InfoObject or InfoProvider. This can typically be done through the SAP BW transaction code RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) by navigating to the relevant InfoObject and using the option to rebuild SIDs.
  Check Data Source Configuration: Ensure that the data source is correctly configured and that it is providing the necessary keys for SID generation.
  Monitor Data Transfer: Use transaction RSMO to monitor the data transfer process and check for any errors or warnings that may indicate issues with SID generation.
  Check for Data Consistency: Use transaction RS_CHECK to check for data consistency issues in the InfoProvider or InfoObject.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SID Table: In SAP BW, SIDs are stored in specific tables (e.g., SID tables for InfoObjects). Each InfoObject has a corresponding SID table that maps the key values to their surrogate IDs.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSMO (Monitor Data Transfer), and RS_CHECK (Consistency Check).
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to SID generation or the RSMDP816 error message.
  
  If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or BW team for further investigation and support.
