  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DDLS115 - Base tables for creating generic view & could not be read ?

    The SAP error message DDLS115 indicates that the base tables required for creating a generic view could not be read. This error typically arises in the context of Data Dictionary operations, particularly when working with database views or generic views in ABAP.

    Cause:

    1. Missing or Inaccessible Base Tables: The base tables that the generic view is supposed to reference may not exist, or the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access them.
    2. Incorrect Table Names: There may be a typo or incorrect naming in the definition of the generic view.
    3. Transport Issues: If the tables were recently transported from another system, they may not have been properly imported or activated.
    4. Database Issues: There could be underlying database issues, such as corruption or connectivity problems.
    5. Data Dictionary Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the Data Dictionary that prevent the system from recognizing the base tables.

    Solution:

    1. Check Table Existence: Verify that the base tables exist in the system. You can do this by using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the table definitions.
    2. Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the base tables. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
    3. Correct Naming: Review the definition of the generic view to ensure that all table names are correctly specified.
    4. Transport Validation: If the tables were recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors and ensure that the transport was successful.
    5. Database Consistency Check: Run database consistency checks to ensure that there are no issues with the database itself. This may involve working with your database administrator.
    6. Re-activate Objects: Sometimes, re-activating the related objects in the Data Dictionary can resolve inconsistencies. You can do this in transaction SE11 or SE14.
    7. Check for System Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date with the latest patches and updates, as some issues may be resolved in newer versions.
