• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSRV068 - Value flagged for deletion in active version. No M-version available: &1 ?

  The SAP error message RSRV068 indicates that a value has been flagged for deletion in the active version of a data object, and there is no corresponding M-version (master version) available. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when dealing with InfoObjects, InfoProviders, or other data structures.
  Cause:
  
  Flagged for Deletion: The value in question has been marked for deletion in the active version of the data model. This can happen during data modeling or when data is being cleaned up.
  No M-Version: The absence of an M-version means that there is no master version of the data available to reference. This could be due to data not being loaded correctly or the M-version being deleted or not created.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSRV068 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Data Model:
  
  Go to the relevant InfoObject or InfoProvider in the SAP BW system.
  Check if the value is indeed flagged for deletion. You can do this by navigating to the data model and reviewing the status of the values.
  
  
  
  Restore or Create M-Version:
  
  If the M-version is missing, you may need to recreate it. This can often be done by reloading the data or using the appropriate transaction to generate the M-version.
  If the M-version exists but is not linked correctly, ensure that the data is properly activated.
  
  
  
  Data Activation:
  
  If you have made changes to the data model or InfoObject, ensure that you activate the changes. This can be done through the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  Use transaction RSRV to perform a consistency check on the data model. This can help identify any inconsistencies or issues that need to be addressed.
  
  
  
  Delete Flag Removal:
  
  If the value should not be flagged for deletion, you can remove the deletion flag. This typically involves changing the status of the value in the data model.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of SAP BW you are using. There may be specific patches or updates that address this issue.
