• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSO_RES_ADSO099 - No 'selective deletion' possible (see long text) ?

  The SAP error message RSO_RES_ADSO099, which states "No 'selective deletion' possible (see long text)," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when working with Advanced DataStore Objects (ADSO). This error indicates that a selective deletion operation cannot be performed on the ADSO due to certain conditions not being met.
  Cause:
  The error can arise due to several reasons, including:
  
  
  Data Model Restrictions: The ADSO may have certain restrictions or settings that prevent selective deletion. For example, if the ADSO is set to "DataStore Object with Write-Optimized" or if it is in a state that does not allow selective deletion.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be data integrity constraints that prevent the deletion of specific records. This could be due to dependencies on other data objects or records.
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used for the deletion may not be valid or may not match any records in the ADSO.
  
  
  Technical Issues: There could be technical issues or bugs in the system that are causing the error.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSO_RES_ADSO099 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check ADSO Settings: Review the settings of the ADSO to ensure that it is configured to allow selective deletions. If it is a write-optimized ADSO, consider whether you need to change its type or settings.
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Ensure that the selection criteria you are using for the deletion are correct and that they match existing records in the ADSO.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a data consistency check to identify any integrity issues that may be preventing the deletion. This can be done using transaction codes like RSA1 to access the Data Warehousing Workbench.
  
  
  Use Full Deletion: If selective deletion is not possible, consider using a full deletion of the data if that aligns with your business requirements.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Check the SAP documentation or notes related to this error message for any specific guidance or updates that may apply to your version of SAP BW.
