• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSO_RES_ADSO121 - Change decimals from &1 to &2 for direct reporting ?

  The SAP error message RSO_RES_ADSO121 typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is a mismatch in the decimal places defined for a characteristic or key figure in an ADSO (Advanced DataStore Object) and the settings in the reporting layer. This error indicates that the system is trying to change the number of decimal places for a field from one value to another, which can lead to inconsistencies in reporting.
  Cause:
  
  Decimal Place Mismatch: The primary cause of this error is that the decimal places defined in the ADSO for a key figure or characteristic do not match the decimal places expected in the reporting layer (e.g., in a query or report).
  Data Model Changes: Changes made to the data model, such as altering the definition of a key figure or characteristic in the ADSO, can lead to this error if the changes are not reflected in the reporting layer.
  Inconsistent Metadata: If the metadata in the ADSO and the reporting layer are not synchronized, it can lead to discrepancies in how data is interpreted.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check ADSO Definition: Review the definition of the ADSO in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) to ensure that the decimal places for the key figures or characteristics are set correctly.
  Update Reporting Layer: If changes have been made to the ADSO, ensure that the reporting layer (queries, reports, etc.) is updated to reflect these changes. This may involve adjusting the query definitions or re-activating the queries.
  Re-activate Queries: If the queries are not reflecting the changes made in the ADSO, try re-activating the queries in the Query Designer (transaction RSRT) to ensure they pick up the latest metadata.
  Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the ADSO and the associated queries to identify any discrepancies. This can often be done through the BW Administration tools.
  Data Load: If the issue persists, consider reloading the data into the ADSO after making the necessary adjustments to ensure that the data aligns with the updated definitions.
