• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DDLS064 - Could not enter dependent DDL & - SQL view/entity (&/&) ?

  The SAP error message DDLS064 indicates that there is an issue with entering a dependent Data Definition Language (DDL) statement for a SQL view or entity. This error typically arises during the activation or generation of database objects in the ABAP Dictionary.
  Causes of DDLS064
  
  
  Missing Dependencies: The SQL view or entity you are trying to activate may depend on other objects (like tables, views, or fields) that are not activated or do not exist.
  
  
  Incorrect Object Definition: There may be an issue with the definition of the SQL view or entity itself, such as syntax errors or invalid references.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to create or modify the SQL view or its dependencies.
  
  
  Database Constraints: There may be constraints or issues at the database level that prevent the creation of the SQL view.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the object was transported from another system, there may be inconsistencies or missing objects in the target system.
  
  
  Solutions to DDLS064
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Verify that all dependent objects (tables, views, fields) are activated and exist in the system. You can use transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the definitions.
  
  
  Review Object Definition: Open the SQL view or entity in transaction SE11 and check for any syntax errors or invalid references. Make sure that all fields and tables referenced in the view are correctly defined.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to create or modify the SQL view. You may need to consult with your security team to verify this.
  
  
  Database Check: If the issue persists, check the database for any constraints or issues that may be preventing the creation of the SQL view. This may involve checking for locks or other database-level issues.
  
  
  Transport Consistency: If the object was transported, ensure that all dependent objects were also transported and are present in the target system. You may need to re-transport missing objects.
  
  
  Re-activate Objects: Sometimes, simply re-activating the dependent objects can resolve the issue. Try activating the dependent objects first and then the SQL view.
