• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: AD - Data Dictionary application messages

• Message number: 815

• Message text: Index &-& (field & is not in the table)

What causes this issue?

An index to a table contains a field which does not exist in the table.
The active version of the table is always used for the check. It is not
sufficent that the field exists in the revised version of the table.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Check whether you have written the field name correctly. If this
message appears when a table is activated, check whether the field was
deleted from the table but still exists in an index to the table.
When an index is activated directly, there is a check against the
active version of the table. If the field was newly included in the
table, the table must first be activated. The index will be activated
automatically at that time.
