• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_CORE246 - The &1 table &2 must be client-independent ?

  The SAP error message FDT_CORE246 indicates that a specific table, referenced as &2, must be client-independent, but it is currently set up in a way that is client-dependent. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Flexible Data Model (FDT) or when working with certain configurations that require client-independent tables.
  
  Cause:
  
  Client-Dependent vs. Client-Independent Tables: In SAP, client-dependent tables store data that is specific to a particular client (i.e., a specific instance of the SAP system), while client-independent tables store data that is shared across all clients. The error suggests that the system expects the table to be client-independent, but it is currently defined as client-dependent.
  
  Configuration Issues: The error may occur due to incorrect configuration settings in the data model or when defining the table in the system.
  Development or Customization Errors: If a developer has created or modified a table without adhering to the client-independent requirement, this error can occur.
