The SAP error message DDLS705 typically indicates that there is an issue with the definition of a database view in the Data Dictionary (DDIC). This error occurs when the system is unable to determine the SQL statements required to create or modify a database view. Here are some common causes, potential solutions, and related information for this error:
Causes:
- Incorrect View Definition: The database view may have been defined incorrectly, such as missing fields, incorrect joins, or invalid data types.
- Database Compatibility: The database system being used may not support certain SQL features or constructs that are being used in the view definition.
- Missing or Inactive Objects: The underlying tables or fields referenced in the view may be missing, inactive, or not properly activated.
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the underlying tables or to create/modify views.
- Transport Issues: If the view was transported from another system, there may be inconsistencies or missing objects in the target system.
Solutions:
- Check View Definition: Review the definition of the database view in the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11). Ensure that all fields, tables, and joins are correctly defined.
- Activate Objects: Make sure that all underlying tables and fields are activated. You can do this by checking the status of the objects in transaction SE11 or SE14.
- Database Compatibility: Verify that the SQL syntax used in the view is compatible with the database system you are using. Consult the database documentation for any limitations.
- Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the tables and to create or modify views. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
- Recreate the View: If the view is corrupted or has issues, consider deleting and recreating it. Make sure to back up any necessary information before doing this.
- Check Transport Logs: If the view was transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate missing objects or inconsistencies.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
