  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CWM/RS003 - Starting to update &1 at &2 &3 ?

    The SAP error message /CWM/RS003 Starting to update &1 at &2 &3 typically indicates an issue related to the update process of a specific object or data in the SAP system. This message is often associated with the SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA environments, particularly during data loading or transformation processes.

    Cause:

    1. Data Load Issues: The error may occur if there are problems with the data being loaded into the system, such as data format issues, missing data, or inconsistencies.
    2. Process Interruption: If a previous process that was supposed to update the same object was interrupted or failed, it could lead to this error.
    3. Locking Issues: The object being updated may be locked by another process, preventing the current update from proceeding.
    4. Configuration Errors: Incorrect settings in the data source, transformation, or data target can also lead to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check Logs: Review the application logs and process chains to identify any preceding errors or warnings that could provide more context about the issue.
    2. Data Validation: Ensure that the data being loaded is in the correct format and does not contain any inconsistencies or missing values.
    3. Release Locks: If the object is locked, identify the process that is holding the lock and either wait for it to complete or terminate it if appropriate.
    4. Re-run the Process: If the previous process failed, try re-running the data load or update process after addressing any identified issues.
    5. Configuration Review: Check the configuration settings for the data source, transformation, and data target to ensure they are set up correctly.
    6. System Resources: Ensure that the system has adequate resources (memory, CPU) to perform the update.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
