• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GT084 - & & does not exist in the database ?

  The SAP error message GT084 typically indicates that a specific object (such as a table, field, or other database entity) does not exist in the database. This error can occur in various contexts, such as during data retrieval, updates, or when executing certain transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Object Does Not Exist: The most straightforward cause is that the object you are trying to access genuinely does not exist in the database. This could be due to a typo in the object name or an incorrect reference.
  Transport Issues: If the object was recently created or modified in a development environment and has not been transported to the production environment, it may not exist in the production database.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the object, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  Database Issues: There could be issues with the database itself, such as corruption or misconfiguration, leading to the object being inaccessible.
  Namespace Conflicts: If the object is part of a custom namespace, it may not be properly defined or activated.
  
  Solution:
  
  Verify Object Existence: Check if the object (table, field, etc.) exists in the database. You can do this using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser).

  Review Authorizations: Check the user’s authorizations to ensure they have the necessary permissions to access the object.
  Database Consistency Check: If you suspect database issues, perform a consistency check or consult your database administrator to investigate any potential problems.
  Check for Activation: If the object is a custom development, ensure that it has been activated in the system.
