• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMCLG623 - Translation object &1 does not exist or lies outside visibility range ?

  The SAP error message DMCLG623 indicates that a translation object specified in your request does not exist or is not accessible due to visibility constraints. This error typically arises in the context of translation management, where the system is unable to find the required translation object for a specific language or context.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Existent Translation Object: The translation object (e.g., a text element, message, or label) you are trying to access does not exist in the system.
  Visibility Range Issues: The translation object exists but is not visible in the current context. This could be due to:
  
  The object being defined in a different package or namespace that is not accessible.
  The object being restricted by authorization settings.
  The object being defined in a different language that is not currently active or available.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Object Existence:
  
  Verify that the translation object exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes like SE63 (Translation) or SE11 (Data Dictionary) to search for the object.
  
  
  
  Check Visibility:
  
  Ensure that the translation object is within the visibility range. This may involve checking the package or namespace settings.
  If the object is part of a different package, you may need to adjust the visibility settings or import the necessary objects.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the translation object. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify your permissions.
  
  
  
  Language Settings:
  
  Check if the language you are trying to access is correctly set up in the system. You can do this by going to transaction code SMLT (Language Transport) to see if the language is installed and active.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Update the Object:
  
  If the object does not exist, you may need to create it or update it if it has been deleted or modified incorrectly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to translation management for additional guidance.
