• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AD113 - Table & still exists in R/2 DD; activation not possible ?

  The SAP error message AD113 indicates that a table still exists in the R/2 Data Dictionary (DD), which prevents the activation of the corresponding object in the R/3 system. This typically occurs when there is a conflict between the R/2 and R/3 environments, particularly when migrating or integrating data structures.
  Cause:
  
  Legacy Data Structures: The table in question may have been defined in the R/2 system and is still referenced or exists in the R/2 Data Dictionary.
  Inconsistent Data Dictionary: There may be inconsistencies between the R/2 and R/3 Data Dictionaries, leading to conflicts during activation.
  Transport Issues: If the table was transported from R/2 to R/3, it may not have been properly removed or updated in the R/2 system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check R/2 Data Dictionary: Verify if the table still exists in the R/2 Data Dictionary. You can do this by accessing the R/2 system and checking the relevant data dictionary objects.
  Remove or Update the Table: If the table is no longer needed, consider removing it from the R/2 Data Dictionary. If it is still required, ensure that it is updated to reflect the changes made in the R/3 system.
  Synchronize Data Dictionaries: Ensure that both the R/2 and R/3 Data Dictionaries are synchronized. This may involve updating the R/2 system to reflect changes made in R/3 or vice versa.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version you are using, as there may be specific instructions or patches available to resolve this issue.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is part of a larger migration or integration project.
