E2197 - Details

• The SAP error message E2197, "Table is only buffered if buffering type is maintained," typically occurs when you are trying to buffer a database table that does not have a buffering type defined in its technical settings. This error is related to the table's configuration in the Data Dictionary (SE11).
  
  Cause:
  
  No Buffering Type Defined: The table you are trying to buffer does not have a buffering type set. In SAP, tables can be configured to be buffered in different ways (e.g., full buffering, generic buffering, or no buffering). If no buffering type is specified, the system will not allow buffering for that table.
  Technical Settings: The technical settings of the table may not have been properly configured to allow for buffering.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Table Settings:
  
  Go to transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary).
  Enter the name of the table that is causing the error and click on "Display."
  Click on the "Technical Settings" button.
  Check the "Buffering" section to
