  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DO807 - Table type & is inconsistent ?

    The SAP error message DO807, which states "Table type & is inconsistent," typically indicates that there is an inconsistency in the definition of a table type in the Data Dictionary (DDIC). This can occur for various reasons, such as changes made to the structure of the table type that have not been properly activated or inconsistencies between the table type and the underlying database table.

    Causes:

    1. Inconsistent Definitions: The structure of the table type may have been modified (e.g., fields added, removed, or changed) without proper activation.
    2. Transport Issues: If the table type was transported from one system to another, there may have been issues during the transport process that led to inconsistencies.
    3. Database Issues: There may be discrepancies between the DDIC definitions and the actual database schema.
    4. Development Errors: Errors during development, such as incorrect coding or changes made in the ABAP programs that reference the table type.

    Solutions:

    1. Activate the Table Type: Go to the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11) and check the table type. If it is not activated, activate it to ensure that the definitions are consistent.
    2. Check for Transport Errors: If the table type was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate issues during the transport.
    3. Rebuild the Table Type: If the issue persists, consider deleting and recreating the table type, ensuring that all references are updated accordingly.
    4. Check Dependencies: Ensure that all dependent objects (like structures, tables, or programs) that reference the table type are also consistent and activated.
    5. Use Transaction SE14: You can use transaction SE14 (Database Utility) to check and adjust the database objects if there are inconsistencies at the database level.
    6. Consult SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to the error message DO807. SAP Notes often provide patches or workarounds for known issues.
