• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GG378 - Table & is not global. ?

  The SAP error message GG378 indicates that a specified table is not defined as a global table. This error typically arises in the context of data dictionary objects, particularly when working with database tables in the ABAP Dictionary.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You are trying to access a table that is not defined as a global table in the ABAP Dictionary.
  The table might be defined as a local table, which means it is only accessible within a specific context or program and not globally across the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the GG378 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Table Definition:
  
  Go to the ABAP Dictionary (transaction SE11).

  If the table needs to be global, you can change its properties in the ABAP Dictionary.
  Make sure to adjust the table's attributes to ensure it is accessible globally.
  
  
  
  Review Program Logic:
  
  If the table is intended to be local, review the program logic to ensure that you are not trying to access it in a global context.
  Modify the code to ensure that local tables are accessed only within their defined scope.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
