• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSODSO_ROLLBACK004 - Rollback started (process is running under user &1) ?

  The SAP error message RSODSO_ROLLBACK004 indicates that a rollback process has been initiated for a DataStore Object (DSO) operation, and it is currently running under a specific user. This message typically arises in the context of data loading or data processing in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an issue that requires the system to revert to a previous state.
  Cause:
  
  Data Load Issues: The rollback may be triggered due to errors during data loading, such as data inconsistencies, data format issues, or problems with the source system.
  Locking Issues: If another process is holding a lock on the DSO, it may prevent the current process from completing, leading to a rollback.
  System Errors: Unexpected system errors or failures during the data processing can also lead to a rollback.
  User Interruption: If a user manually interrupts a data load process, it may trigger a rollback.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Process Status: Use transaction codes like SM37 to check the status of the job that is running. Look for any related error messages that might provide more context.
  Review Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any detailed error messages that occurred before the rollback was initiated.
  Resolve Data Issues: If the rollback was due to data inconsistencies, identify and correct the problematic data in the source system or the DSO.
  Release Locks: If there are locks on the DSO, identify the user or process holding the lock and resolve it. You can use transaction SM12 to view and delete locks if necessary.
  Retry the Process: After resolving the underlying issues, retry the data load process.
  Monitor System Performance: Ensure that the system is not under heavy load, which could contribute to timeouts or failures during data processing.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SM37 (Job Monitoring), SLG1 (Application Log), and SM12 (Lock Entries).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific DSO or data loading process you are working with.
  Documentation: Review SAP BW documentation for best practices on data loading and error handling.
