This error can arise due to various reasons, including issues with the database connection, missing or corrupted table definitions, or inconsistencies in the data dictionary.
  Causes:
  
  Database Connection Issues: The SAP system may not be able to connect to the database, which can prevent it from retrieving the necessary metadata about the table.
  Missing or Corrupted Table Definitions: If the table definition in the data dictionary (DDIC) is missing or corrupted, the system will not be able to access its columns.
  Transport Issues: If the table was recently transported from another system and the transport did not complete successfully, it may lead to inconsistencies.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the operation may not have the necessary authorizations to access the table or its metadata.
  Database Issues: There may be underlying issues with the database itself, such as corruption or misconfiguration.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Database Connection: Ensure that the SAP system can connect to the database. You can check the database connection settings in the SAP system and verify that the database is up and running.

  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the table and its metadata. You can check this using transaction SU53 to analyze authorization failures.
  Database Consistency Check: If you suspect database corruption, you may need to run database consistency checks or consult your database administrator for assistance.
