• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSSTATMAN029 - Check 'request list' with 'PSA buffer': Field '&': List '&' <> PSA '&' ?

  The SAP error message RSSTATMAN029 indicates a discrepancy between the request list and the Persistent Staging Area (PSA) buffer for a specific field in the data extraction process. This error typically occurs during the data loading process in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when the data in the request list does not match the data in the PSA.
  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  Data Inconsistency: The data in the request list may not match the data in the PSA due to inconsistencies during data loading or transformation processes.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model (e.g., changes in InfoObjects, data types, or structures) can lead to mismatches between the request list and the PSA.
  Data Load Failures: If a data load process was interrupted or failed, it might leave the request list in an inconsistent state.
  Incorrect Data Source Configuration: Misconfiguration of the data source or extraction settings can lead to discrepancies.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSSTATMAN029 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Request List: Review the request list for the specific InfoProvider to identify any discrepancies. You can do this in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1).
  
  
  Check the PSA: Access the PSA for the relevant data source and verify the data. You can do this by navigating to the PSA in RSA1 and checking the records for the specific field mentioned in the error message.
  
  
  Reprocess the Data Load: If you find inconsistencies, you may need to delete the problematic requests from the request list and reprocess the data load from the source system to the PSA.
  
  
  Repair the Data: If the data in the PSA is incorrect, you may need to manually correct it or delete the records and reload the data.
  
  
  Check for Data Model Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model, ensure that all related objects are updated and consistent.
  
  
  Use Transaction RSMO: You can use transaction RSMO to monitor and manage the data loads and check for any errors or inconsistencies.
  
  
  Consult Logs: Check the logs for the data load process to identify any specific errors or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSMO (Monitor Data Loads), and RSPC (Process Chain).
  SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to RSSTATMAN029 for any specific patches or updates that may address known issues.
  Documentation: Review SAP BW documentation for best practices on data loading and handling PSA data.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue causing the RSSTATMAN029 error in your SAP BW environment.
