• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/CONF_CDS023 - [BO check] DB table &2 does not exist in active version (view &1) ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/CONF_CDS023 [BO check] DB table &2 does not exist in active version (view &1) typically indicates that there is an issue with the Business Object Framework (BOF) configuration, specifically related to the Core Data Services (CDS) views and the underlying database tables.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Version: The error suggests that the database table referenced by the CDS view is not in an active version. This can happen if the table has been modified or if the transport containing the changes has not been properly activated in the target system.
  Missing Table: The database table might not exist at all in the database, possibly due to a failed transport or an incomplete installation.
  Transport Issues: If the changes were transported from one system to another, there might have been issues during the transport process that led to the table not being created or activated.
  Development Environment: If you are working in a development environment, the table might not have been created yet or might have been deleted.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Activation: Ensure that the database table and the associated CDS view are activated. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction codes (e.g., SE11 for Data Dictionary) and checking the status of the table and view.
  Re-activate the CDS View: If the view is inactive, try re-activating it. You can do this in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or using transaction code SE11.
  Check Transport Logs: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate why the table was not created or activated.
  Database Consistency: Run consistency checks on the database to ensure that all objects are correctly defined and activated.
  Check for Missing Objects: If the table is indeed missing, you may need to recreate it or restore it from a backup if it was deleted.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific Business Object Framework and CDS views for any known issues or additional troubleshooting steps.
