• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACM280 - CTE (view type: &1; column type: '&2') deleted ?

  The SAP error message ACM280 indicates that a certain column in a view has been deleted, which can lead to issues when trying to access or manipulate that view. This error typically arises in the context of database views or data models where the structure has changed, and the application is trying to reference a column that no longer exists.
  Cause:
  
  View Modification: The most common cause is that the underlying database view has been modified, and a column that was previously part of the view has been deleted.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the transport might not have included all necessary changes, leading to inconsistencies.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model or database schema can also lead to this error if the application is not updated accordingly.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check View Definition: Review the definition of the view in the database to confirm which columns are present. You can do this using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator).
  Update Application Logic: If the application logic is trying to access the deleted column, you will need to update the code to remove references to that column or replace it with an appropriate alternative.
  Recreate the View: If the view is essential and the deletion was unintentional, consider recreating the view with the necessary columns.
  Transport Consistency: Ensure that all transports related to the view and its dependencies are correctly applied across systems. Check for any missing transports that might have included the deleted column.
  Consult Documentation: If the view is part of a standard SAP application, consult the relevant SAP documentation or notes for any known issues or updates related to the view.
