    The SAP error message AD747 ("Technical settings are new (function not possible)") typically occurs when there is an issue with the technical settings of a database table or view in the SAP system. This error is often related to the use of the Data Dictionary (DDIC) and can arise during various operations, such as when trying to activate or modify a table or when performing certain database operations.

    Cause:

    1. New Technical Settings: The error indicates that the technical settings of the database object (table/view) have been changed or are not compatible with the current operation. This can happen if the object was created or modified in a way that is not recognized by the current version of the SAP system.
    2. Database Compatibility: The database version or settings may not support the new technical settings that have been applied to the table.
