How To Fix DT011 - & is not a DB-VIEW (Technical settings are not meaningful)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: DT - Table activation (incl. indexes)

• Message number: 011

• Message text: & is not a DB-VIEW (Technical settings are not meaningful)

What causes this issue?

The technical settings are used to individually adapt the storage
requirements and access (buffering) to a database table. Access to a
view, however, is already defined by the access to the tables included
in the view. Technical settings are therefore meaningless for views.
This inconsistency probably occurred due to a change in the table type
of the corresponding object.

System Response

The system deletes the existing technical settings. The view can thus
be activated.
