  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DDLS370 - View with parameters &: parameter & is not defined ?

    The SAP error message DDLS370 indicates that there is an issue with a view that is being accessed or executed, specifically that one of the parameters required for the view is not defined. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when a database view is being called without the necessary parameters being passed, or when the view definition itself is missing required parameters.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Parameter Definition: The view is defined to accept certain parameters, but one or more of those parameters are not provided when the view is called.
    2. Incorrect View Definition: The view may have been incorrectly defined in the database, leading to a mismatch between expected and provided parameters.
    3. Changes in View Structure: If the view structure has been changed (e.g., parameters added or removed) and the calling program has not been updated accordingly, this error can occur.
    4. Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the view or its parameters.

    Solution:

    1. Check View Definition: Review the definition of the view in the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11) to ensure that all required parameters are correctly defined.
    2. Provide Missing Parameters: When calling the view, ensure that all required parameters are being passed. This may involve checking the calling program or report to ensure it is providing the necessary input.
    3. Update Calling Programs: If the view has been modified, ensure that any programs or reports that call the view are updated to match the new definition.
    4. Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the view and its parameters. This can be done through transaction SU53 or by checking the user roles and authorizations.
    5. Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the program that is calling the view to trace where the parameters are being set and identify any discrepancies.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SE11: Data Dictionary to view and edit the definition of database objects.
      • SE80: Object Navigator to explore various objects including programs and views.
      • SU53: Authorization check to see if there are any authorization issues.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation for views and parameters to understand how they should be defined and used.
