• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSPC191 - Set both values or clear both values ?

  The SAP error message RSPC191 ("Set both values or clear both values") typically occurs in the context of process chains in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is a configuration issue related to the settings of certain process chain variants or parameters.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when there are inconsistencies in the settings of the process chain. Specifically, it indicates that there are two related parameters (often related to start and end dates, or other similar settings) that need to be either both set or both cleared. If one is set and the other is not, the system cannot proceed, leading to this error message.
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSPC191 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Process Chain Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code RSPC to access the Process Chain maintenance.
  Identify the process chain that is causing the error.
  
  
  
  Review Parameters:
  
  Look for the specific process or variant that is causing the issue.
  Check the parameters related to the process. Ensure that if one parameter is set (e.g., a start date), the corresponding parameter (e.g., an end date) is also set. Conversely, if one is cleared, the other should also be cleared.
  
  
  
  Adjust Settings:
  
  If you find that one parameter is set and the other is not, adjust the settings accordingly. Either set both parameters or clear both parameters to ensure consistency.
  
  
  
  Save Changes:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes to the process chain.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Process Chain:
  
  Attempt to re-run the process chain to see if the error has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
