• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DD_DATABASEOBJ_CONS004 - Table fields are not active in runtime. ?

  The SAP error message DD_DATABASEOBJ_CONS004 indicates that certain table fields are not active in runtime. This typically occurs when there are inconsistencies or issues with the database table definitions in the Data Dictionary (DD) of SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Fields: The fields in the database table may have been marked as inactive or not properly activated in the Data Dictionary.
  Transport Issues: If the table definitions were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process that caused the fields to remain inactive.
  Changes Not Activated: Changes made to the table structure (like adding or modifying fields) may not have been activated properly.
  Database Synchronization: There may be a mismatch between the Data Dictionary definitions and the actual database schema.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Activate the Fields:
  
  Go to the Data Dictionary (transaction code SE11).
  Enter the name of the table and click on "Display".
  If the fields are inactive, you will see an option to activate them. Click on the "Activate" button to activate the fields.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Logs:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate why the fields are inactive.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the Table:
  
  Sometimes, re-activating the entire table can resolve the issue. In SE11, after displaying the table, you can choose to "Activate" the entire table.
  
  
  
  Database Consistency Check:
  
  Use transaction code SE14 (Database Utility) to check the consistency of the database table. This can help identify any discrepancies between the Data Dictionary and the actual database.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no dependencies or constraints that might prevent the fields from being activated.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes:
  
  Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
