• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSODSO_ROLLBACK203 - Incorrect status found. Deletion canceled (status: &1) ?

  The SAP error message RSODSO_ROLLBACK203 with the description "Incorrect status found. Deletion canceled (status: &1)" typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is an issue with the status of a DataStore Object (DSO) during a deletion operation. This error indicates that the DSO is in a status that does not allow for the deletion to proceed.
  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  Incorrect DSO Status: The DSO may be in a status that does not permit deletion, such as being in a "locked" state or having active requests that need to be processed or deleted first.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data or metadata of the DSO that prevent the deletion process from completing successfully.
  Active Requests: If there are active data requests or processes that are still using the DSO, the system will not allow deletion.
  Transactional Issues: There may be ongoing transactions that are affecting the DSO's status.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check DSO Status: Verify the current status of the DSO. You can do this by navigating to the DSO in the SAP BW system and checking its status. Ensure that it is not locked or in a state that prevents deletion.
  
  
  Delete Active Requests: If there are active requests associated with the DSO, you may need to delete or process those requests before attempting to delete the DSO itself.
  
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for any locks on the DSO. If there are locks, you may need to release them.
  
  
  Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the DSO to identify any issues. You can use transaction RSDS to check the DSO and ensure that it is consistent.
  
  
  Reprocess or Rollback: If there are ongoing processes that are causing the issue, consider reprocessing or rolling back those processes.
  
  
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages that may provide additional context on why the deletion is failing.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists after trying the above steps, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance, especially if it appears to be a more complex issue.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSDS (DataStore Object Maintenance), and SLG1 (Application Log).
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues related to this error message.
  Documentation: Review SAP BW documentation for best practices on managing DataStore Objects and handling errors.
