• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSPC108 - Event &1 is not triggered by predecessors ?

  The SAP error message RSPC108 indicates that a specific event (denoted as &1) is not triggered by its predecessor process chains or processes. This typically occurs in the context of process chains in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA, where events are used to control the flow of data processing.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Predecessor Event: The event that is supposed to trigger the specified event has not been executed or has failed.
  Incorrect Event Configuration: The event might not be correctly configured in the process chain, leading to it not being triggered as expected.
  Process Chain Errors: There may be errors in the preceding steps of the process chain that prevent the event from being triggered.
  Event Dependency Issues: The event might depend on multiple predecessors, and if any of them fail or are not executed, the event will not be triggered.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Predecessor Events: Review the process chain to ensure that all predecessor events are correctly configured and have been executed successfully.
  Monitor Process Chain Execution: Use transaction code RSPC to monitor the execution of the process chain. Look for any errors or warnings in the logs that might indicate why the predecessor did not trigger the event.
  Re-run the Process Chain: If the predecessor events have failed, resolve the issues and re-run the entire process chain or the specific predecessor that failed.
  Event Configuration: Verify the configuration of the event in the process chain. Ensure that it is set up to be triggered by the correct predecessor.
  Check Event Dependencies: If the event has multiple dependencies, ensure that all required predecessors are executed successfully before the event is triggered.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use RSPC for monitoring process chains and RSPC1 for managing process chains.
  Event Management: Familiarize yourself with how events are managed in SAP BW, including how to set up and configure events and their dependencies.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to event triggering in your version of SAP BW.
  Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for detailed guidance on process chains and event handling.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the RSPC108 error and implement the necessary solutions to resolve it.
