• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message E2272 - Delivery class 'G' is no longer supported ?

  The SAP error message E2272, which states "Delivery class 'G' is no longer supported," typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify a table that has a delivery class set to 'G'. In SAP, delivery classes determine how data is managed in the database and how it is transported between systems. 
  Cause:
  The delivery class 'G' (which stands for "Customizing table") is no longer supported in newer versions of SAP. This is because SAP has moved towards more standardized delivery classes to ensure better data integrity and system performance. The use of delivery class 'G' can lead to inconsistencies and issues in data transport and management.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to change the delivery class of the affected table. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Identify the Table: Determine which table is causing the error. This can usually be found in the error message or by checking the transaction where the error occurred.
  
  
  Change the Delivery Class:
  
  Go to the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11).
  Enter the name of the table and click on "Display."
  Click on "Change" to edit the table definition.
  Locate the "Delivery Class" field and change it to a supported delivery class. Common alternatives include:
  
  A: Application table (data is application-specific).
  C: Customizing table (data is client-specific).
  L: Table for storing temporary data (not transported).
  S: System table (data is system-wide).
  
  
  Save your changes.
  
  
  
  Transport Changes: If the table is part of a transport request, ensure that the changes are included in the transport request and that they are moved to the appropriate systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance).
  
  
  Test: After making the changes, test the functionality to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the application behaves as expected.
