• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DD_MT_SHARING_CHK024 - Sharing only allowed for writable views on tables with sharing type T/S ?

  The SAP error message DD_MT_SHARING_CHK024 indicates that there is an issue with the sharing configuration of a database table or view in the context of SAP's Data Dictionary. Specifically, this error occurs when there is an attempt to share a view that is not writable, while the sharing type of the underlying table is set to T (Table) or S (Structure).
  Cause:
  
  Non-Writable View: The error arises when a non-writable view is being shared. In SAP, only writable views can be shared if the underlying table has a sharing type of T (Table) or S (Structure).
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the view or the underlying table may not be set up correctly to allow for sharing.
  Data Dictionary Settings: The settings in the Data Dictionary for the view or table may not align with the requirements for sharing.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check View Type: Ensure that the view you are trying to share is a writable view. If it is a read-only view, you will need to create a writable version of the view.
  Modify View Definition: If possible, modify the view definition to make it writable. This may involve changing the underlying tables or the way the view is constructed.
  Review Sharing Settings: Check the sharing settings of the underlying table. If the table is set to a sharing type that does not allow for non-writable views, you may need to adjust this.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on creating writable views and the requirements for sharing.
  Testing: After making changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
