• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CD052 - Table name & (without namespace) already used in object ?

  The SAP error message CD052 indicates that there is a conflict with the naming of a table in the Data Dictionary (DDIC). Specifically, it means that the table name you are trying to create or modify is already in use by another object, and this can happen for several reasons.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Table Name: The most common cause is that the table name you are trying to create already exists in the system. This could be a standard SAP table, a custom table, or a table from another namespace.
  Namespace Issues: If you are working in a specific namespace, the error may arise if you are trying to create a table without a namespace that conflicts with an existing object.
  Transport Issues: Sometimes, if you are working in a development environment and have transported objects, there may be conflicts due to objects being transported that have the same name.
  Inconsistent Object State: If there are inconsistencies in the object state (e.g., an object was not properly deleted or modified), it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Tables: Use transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check if the table name already exists. If it does, you will need to choose a different name for your new table.
  Use a Namespace: If you are creating a custom table, ensure that you are using a proper namespace to avoid conflicts with standard SAP objects or other custom objects.
  Delete or Rename Existing Objects: If the existing table is not needed, you can delete it (if you have the necessary authorizations) or rename it to free up the name.
  Transport Management: If the issue is related to transport, ensure that all transports are correctly imported and that there are no pending objects that could cause conflicts.
  Check for Inactive Objects: Sometimes, inactive objects can cause conflicts. Check if there are any inactive versions of the object that might be causing the issue.
