  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CE454 - Table & does not exist ?

    The SAP error message CE454 indicates that a specific table does not exist in the system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with cost centers, internal orders, or other controlling-related data.

    Cause:

    1. Table Not Created: The table in question may not have been created in the database. This can happen if the system is not properly configured or if there was an issue during the installation or upgrade process.
    2. Incorrect Table Name: There may be a typo or incorrect reference to the table name in the code or configuration.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the table, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
    4. Transport Issues: If the table was supposed to be transported from another system (e.g., development to production) and the transport did not occur successfully, the table may be missing.
    5. Database Issues: There could be issues with the database itself, such as corruption or misconfiguration.

    Solution:

    1. Verify Table Existence: Check if the table actually exists in the database. You can do this by using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to look for the table.
    2. Check for Typos: Ensure that the table name is spelled correctly in the code or configuration where the error is occurring.
    3. Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the table. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
    4. Transport Check: If the table was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs to ensure that the transport was successful and that the table was included.
    5. Database Integrity: If you suspect database issues, consult with your database administrator to check for any integrity issues or corruption.
    6. Recreate the Table: If the table is missing and should exist, you may need to recreate it. This should be done with caution and typically requires development or basis team involvement.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SE11: Data Dictionary to check for table existence.
      • SE80: Object Navigator to check related objects.
      • SU53: Authorization check to see if the user has the necessary permissions.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific table or error message.
    • System Logs: Review system logs (transaction SM21) for any related errors that might provide additional context.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
