  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMCLG338 - Table &1 does not exist at RFC destination &2 ?

    The SAP error message DMCLG338 indicates that a specific table (denoted as &1) does not exist at the specified RFC destination (denoted as &2). This error typically arises in scenarios involving Remote Function Calls (RFC) where the system is trying to access a database table that is not available in the target system.

    Causes:

    1. Table Not Created: The table may not have been created in the target system. This can happen if the table is part of a custom development or a transport that has not been imported.
    2. Incorrect RFC Destination: The RFC destination may be incorrectly configured, pointing to the wrong system or client where the table does not exist.
    3. Transport Issues: If the table was recently transported from one system to another, there may have been issues during the transport process.
    4. Version Mismatch: The source and target systems may be on different versions of SAP, leading to discrepancies in the database schema.
    5. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the table in the target system.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Table Existence: Verify if the table &1 exists in the target system by using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser).
    2. Create the Table: If the table does not exist, you may need to create it manually or ensure that the transport containing the table is correctly imported.
    3. Verify RFC Configuration: Check the RFC destination configuration in transaction SM59 to ensure it points to the correct system and client.
    4. Transport Logs: Review the transport logs to identify any issues that occurred during the transport of the table.
    5. Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the RFC call has the necessary authorizations to access the table in the target system.
    6. System Consistency: If there are version mismatches, consider synchronizing the systems or updating the target system to match the source.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SE11: Data Dictionary
