• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5L153 - Type &1 undefined ?

  The SAP error message 5L153 with the description "Type &1 undefined" typically indicates that the system is trying to reference a type (such as a data type, object type, or similar) that has not been defined in the system. This can occur in various contexts, such as during the execution of a program, when processing data, or when trying to access a specific object.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Definition: The type referenced by the error message is not defined in the system. This could be due to a missing data dictionary object or a custom type that has not been created.
  Transport Issues: If the type was recently transported from another system, it may not have been included in the transport request, or the transport may have failed.
  Namespace Issues: The type may exist in a different namespace that is not accessible in the current context.
  Typographical Errors: There may be a typo in the code or configuration where the type is referenced.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Type Definition: Verify if the type referenced in the error message is defined in the system. You can do this by checking the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11) or the relevant ABAP program.
  Create the Type: If the type is indeed missing, you may need to create it in the Data Dictionary or the relevant area of the system.
  Transport Check: If the type was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs to ensure that the transport was successful and that the type is included in the transport request.
  Namespace Verification: Ensure that you are working in the correct namespace and that the type is accessible from your current context.
  Code Review: Review the code or configuration that is causing the error to ensure that there are no typographical errors or incorrect references.
