• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_CORE245 - The C table &1 must be client-dependent ?

  The SAP error message FDT_CORE245 indicates that a certain table (referred to as &1 in the error message) must be client-dependent, but it is currently not configured as such. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Flexible Data Model (FDT) or when working with custom tables in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A table that is expected to be client-dependent (i.e., its data is specific to a particular client in the SAP system) is defined as client-independent.
  The system is trying to access or manipulate data in a way that requires client-dependent behavior, but the table's configuration does not support it.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Table Definition:
  
  Go to transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) and check the definition of the table mentioned in the error message.
  Ensure that the table is defined as client-dependent. This is typically done by setting the "Client-Dependent" option in the table's attributes.
  
  
  
  Modify Table Attributes:
  
  If the table is not client-dependent and it needs to be, you will need to modify its attributes.
  Change the table definition to make it client-dependent. This may involve adjusting the table's structure and ensuring that it includes the client field (usually MANDT).
  
  
  
  Transport Changes:
  
  If you are making changes in a development environment, ensure that you transport these changes to the appropriate environments (e.g., quality assurance, production) after testing.
  
  
  
  Check Related Custom Code:
  
  If there is any custom code or logic that interacts with this table, review it to ensure it is compatible with the client-dependent nature of the table.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific table and the FDT framework for any additional guidance or best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, perform thorough testing to ensure that the error is resolved and that the application behaves as expected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
