  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_MDG_CDS_ASSEMBLER008 - Viewname &1 not found in configuration. ?

    The SAP error message CM_MDG_CDS_ASSEMBLER008 indicates that a specific view (denoted by &1) is not found in the configuration. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when the system is trying to access a Core Data Services (CDS) view that has not been properly defined or activated.

    Causes:

    1. Missing View Definition: The CDS view may not have been created or activated in the system.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the MDG application may not be correctly set up, leading to the system looking for a view that does not exist.
    3. Transport Issues: If the view was recently transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process that prevented the view from being created or activated.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the view, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
    5. System Version Mismatch: The view may exist in a different version of the system or in a different client.

    Solutions:

    1. Check View Existence: Verify if the CDS view exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to search for the view.
    2. Activate the View: If the view exists but is not activated, activate it using transaction SE11.
    3. Review Configuration: Check the MDG configuration settings to ensure that all necessary views are correctly defined and activated.
    4. Transport Check: If the view was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs for any errors and ensure that the transport was successful.
    5. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the view. This can be checked in transaction SU53 after attempting to access the view.
    6. System Consistency: If you suspect a version mismatch, ensure that the system is consistent and that all necessary components are installed and activated.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
