  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DD_DATABASEOBJ_CONS202 - Object & is not defined in the dictionary. ?

    The SAP error message DD_DATABASEOBJ_CONS202 indicates that a database object (such as a table, view, or other database structure) is not defined in the dictionary. This typically occurs when the system is trying to access a database object that either does not exist or is not properly defined in the SAP Data Dictionary.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Object: The database object may not exist in the database. This can happen if it was deleted or never created.
    2. Transport Issues: If the object was transported from another system and the transport did not complete successfully, the object may not be defined.
    3. Naming Issues: There may be a typo in the name of the object being referenced, leading to the system not being able to find it.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the object, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
    5. Database Synchronization: The database may not be in sync with the Data Dictionary, especially after changes or updates.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Object Existence: Verify if the object exists in the database. You can do this using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE14 (Database Utility).
    2. Recreate the Object: If the object is missing, you may need to recreate it. This could involve creating a new table or view in the Data Dictionary.
    3. Transport Request: If the object was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs and ensure that the transport request was completed successfully.
    4. Check Naming: Ensure that the name of the object being referenced is correct and matches the name defined in the Data Dictionary.
    5. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the object. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
    6. Database Synchronization: If there are discrepancies between the Data Dictionary and the database, you may need to run the database utility (SE14) to synchronize them.
