  The SAP error message DD_MT_SHARING062 indicates that a specific index for a database table is not active in the data dictionary. This can occur for various reasons, such as changes made to the table structure, the index being deleted or not created properly, or inconsistencies in the database.
  Cause:
  
  Index Not Active: The index specified in the error message is not active in the data dictionary, which means it cannot be used for database operations.
  Table Structure Changes: If the underlying table structure has been modified (e.g., fields added or removed), the index may need to be reactivated or recreated.
  Transport Issues: If the table or index was transported from one system to another, it may not have been activated properly in the target system.
  Database Issues: There may be inconsistencies or corruption in the database that prevent the index from being recognized.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Index Status:

  If the index is missing or inactive, you can recreate it. In SE11, select the index and choose the option to create or activate it.
  
  
  
  Activate Table:

  Check Transport Logs:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors related to the table or index.
