• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DI787 - Parameter field &-& of lock parameter & is not in base table ?

  The SAP error message DI787 indicates that there is an issue with a parameter field in a lock parameter that is not found in the base table. This error typically arises in the context of data locking mechanisms in SAP, particularly when dealing with database operations that require locking to ensure data integrity.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Field in Base Table: The specified parameter field is not defined in the base table that is being accessed. This could be due to a misconfiguration or an incorrect reference to a field that does not exist.
  Incorrect Lock Parameter Configuration: The lock parameter may have been incorrectly set up in the system, leading to a mismatch between the expected fields and the actual fields in the base table.
  Changes in Table Structure: If the structure of the base table has been changed (e.g., fields added or removed) and the lock parameters have not been updated accordingly, this error can occur.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production) and the transport did not include all necessary objects, this could lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Base Table Structure: Verify the structure of the base table to ensure that the parameter field specified in the error message actually exists. You can do this by using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to view the table definition.
  Review Lock Parameter Configuration: Check the configuration of the lock parameters in the relevant transaction or program. Ensure that all specified fields are valid and exist in the base table.
  Update Lock Parameters: If the base table structure has changed, update the lock parameters to reflect the current structure. This may involve modifying the relevant configuration or code.
  Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport or manually adjust the configuration.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the program or transaction that is generating the error to identify where the incorrect reference is being made.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use SE11 to check table definitions, SE80 for object navigation, and SE37 for function modules that may be involved in the locking mechanism.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to data locking and transaction management for a deeper understanding of how locks are implemented and managed in SAP systems.
  
  If the problem continues after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or ABAP team for further assistance, as they may have more insights into the specific configurations and customizations in your SAP environment.
