• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSODSO_TEST002 - Unable to find data record in shadow table: &1/&2/&3 ?

  The SAP error message RSODSO_TEST002 indicates that the system is unable to find a data record in the shadow table for a specific DataStore Object (DSO). This error typically occurs during data extraction or loading processes in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when the system is trying to access data that is expected to be present in the shadow table but is not found.
  Causes:
  
  Data Not Loaded: The data may not have been loaded into the DSO correctly, or the loading process may have failed.
  Data Deletion: The records might have been deleted from the shadow table due to a data management process or a manual deletion.
  Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the data model or issues with the data transformation process that prevent the records from being available.
  Incorrect Request: The request being processed may not correspond to the data that exists in the shadow table.
  Shadow Table Issues: There could be issues with the shadow table itself, such as corruption or misconfiguration.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Load Status: Verify the status of the data load process to ensure that data has been successfully loaded into the DSO. You can do this by checking the data load logs in the SAP BW system.
  Reprocess Data Load: If the data load has failed, reprocess the data load request to ensure that the data is correctly loaded into the DSO.
  Check for Deletions: Investigate if any data deletion processes have been executed that might have removed the records from the shadow table.
  Validate Data Consistency: Ensure that the data transformation and loading processes are consistent and correctly configured. Check for any errors in the transformation rules or data sources.
  Check Shadow Table Configuration: Review the configuration of the shadow table to ensure it is set up correctly and is functioning as expected.
  Use Repair Tools: If you suspect corruption or other issues with the shadow table, consider using SAP repair tools or transaction codes (like RSA1 for Data Warehousing Workbench) to analyze and repair the DSO.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to monitor and manage data loads, and RSD1 (DataStore Object Maintenance) to check the configuration of the DSO.
  Logs and Monitoring: Check the logs for the data load process in the SAP BW system to identify any specific errors or warnings that may provide more context for the issue.
