• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DO757 - Table type & marked for deletion ?

  The SAP error message DO757 indicates that a table type is marked for deletion. This typically occurs when a table type in the Data Dictionary (DDIC) has been flagged for deletion but is still being referenced in some way, such as in a program, function module, or other database objects.
  Cause:
  
  Table Type Marked for Deletion: The table type has been marked for deletion in the Data Dictionary but is still being used in the system.
  Dependencies: There may be existing objects (like programs, function modules, or classes) that depend on the table type, which can lead to inconsistencies.
  Transport Issues: If the table type was recently transported from another system, it might not have been properly updated or deleted in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check if there are any objects that depend on the table type. You can do this by navigating to the table type and using the "Where-Used List" functionality.
  Remove References: If there are references to the table type, you will need to either remove those references or update them to point to a valid table type.
  Delete the Table Type: If you are sure that the table type is no longer needed, you can proceed to delete it from the Data Dictionary. Make sure to do this carefully, as it may affect other objects.
  Transport Request: If the issue arose due to a transport request, ensure that the transport is correctly imported and that all dependencies are resolved.
  Check for Active Versions: Ensure that there are no active versions of the table type that might be causing the conflict.
