  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CFG/ACTIVATION123 - View &1 is already defined in Blacklist and will be skipped. ?

    The SAP error message /CFG/ACTIVATION123 View &1 is already defined in Blacklist and will be skipped typically occurs during the activation of a view in the SAP system. This message indicates that the view you are trying to activate is already present in a blacklist, which means it has been marked to be excluded from activation due to certain issues or conflicts.

    Cause:

    1. View Already Blacklisted: The view has been previously identified as problematic or has issues that prevent it from being activated successfully.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration problems or dependencies that are not met, leading to the view being blacklisted.
    3. System Errors: There could be underlying system errors or inconsistencies that caused the view to be blacklisted.

    Solution:

    1. Check Blacklist Entries:

      • Use transaction code SE11 or SE80 to check the blacklist entries. You can look for the specific view in question and see why it was blacklisted.
      • You can also check the relevant logs or messages that might provide more context on why the view was blacklisted.
    2. Resolve Underlying Issues:

      • Investigate the root cause of the issue that led to the blacklisting. This may involve checking for missing dependencies, configuration errors, or other related issues.
      • If the view is not supposed to be blacklisted, you may need to correct the underlying problem that caused it to be blacklisted.
    3. Remove from Blacklist:

      • If you determine that the view can be safely activated, you can remove it from the blacklist. This typically involves modifying the configuration or using specific transaction codes to manage blacklist entries.
      • You may need to consult with your SAP Basis or development team to ensure that removing the view from the blacklist is appropriate.
    4. Re-attempt Activation:

      • After resolving the issues and removing the view from the blacklist, try to activate the view again.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE80 (Object Navigator), and SICF (Maintain Services) for managing views and services.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific view or the error message. This can provide additional context or solutions.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to the specific module or functionality you are working with to understand any specific requirements or configurations needed for the view.
