• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DDLS139 - $extension: no base tables/views for view entity & found ?

  The SAP error message DDLS139 with the description "$extension: no base tables/views for view entity & found" typically occurs when you are trying to create or activate a view in the Data Dictionary (DDIC) that references base tables or views that do not exist or are not accessible.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Base Tables/Views: The most common cause is that the base tables or views that the view is supposed to reference do not exist in the system.
  Incorrect Naming: There might be a typo or incorrect naming in the view definition, leading to the system not being able to find the referenced objects.
  Transport Issues: If the view was transported from another system, the base tables/views may not have been transported or may not exist in the target system.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the base tables/views.
  Inactive Objects: The base tables/views might be inactive or not properly defined in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existence of Base Tables/Views: Verify that all the base tables and views referenced in the view definition exist in the system. You can do this by checking in the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11).
  Correct Naming: Ensure that the names of the base tables/views in the view definition are correct and match the actual names in the system.
  Transport Validation: If the view was transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all dependent objects were included in the transport request.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the base tables/views. You can check this using transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  Activate Base Objects: If the base tables/views are inactive, activate them first before trying to activate the view.
  Recreate the View: If the issue persists, consider recreating the view to ensure that it is correctly defined.
