• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/COM_GENERATOR130 - Table type &1 not created, as row type &2 does not exist ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/COM_GENERATOR130 indicates that there is an issue with the Business Object Framework (BOF) in SAP, specifically related to the generation of a table type. The error message states that the table type you are trying to create cannot be generated because the specified row type does not exist.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Row Type: The primary cause of this error is that the row type specified in the table type definition does not exist in the system. This could happen if the row type was deleted, not created, or if there is a typo in the name of the row type.
  Inconsistent Metadata: There may be inconsistencies in the metadata definitions for the Business Object, which can lead to the generation process failing.
  Transport Issues: If the Business Object or its components were transported from another system, there might be missing dependencies or incomplete transport requests.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Row Type Definition:
  
  Verify that the row type specified in the error message exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., SE11 for Data Dictionary) and checking for the existence of the row type.
  If the row type does not exist, you will need to create it or correct the reference in the table type definition.
  
  
  
  Re-generate the Business Object:
  
  After ensuring that the row type exists, you may need to regenerate the Business Object. This can typically be done using transaction /BOBF/CONF or /BOBF/GEN to regenerate the necessary components.
  
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport missing objects.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code:
  
  If you have custom code that interacts with the Business Object, review it to ensure that it is not causing the issue by referencing non-existent types.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the Business Object Framework for any specific guidance or known issues related to your version of SAP.
