• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GT087 - Runtime object of & & was deleted ?

  The SAP error message GT087, which states "Runtime object of & & was deleted," typically occurs in the context of SAP ABAP programs or during the execution of certain transactions. This error indicates that a runtime object (such as a program, function module, or class) that was expected to be available has been deleted or is no longer accessible in the system.
  Causes:
  
  Deletion of Objects: The most common cause is that the runtime object has been deleted from the system. This could happen due to a transport request that removed the object or manual deletion.
  Transport Issues: If the object was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production) and the transport was not successful, it may lead to this error.
  Inconsistent State: The system may be in an inconsistent state due to incomplete updates or changes made to the object.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the object, leading to the perception that it has been deleted.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Object Existence: Verify if the object (program, function module, etc.) still exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE37 (Function Module).
  Transport Logs: Review the transport logs to see if there were any issues during the transport of the object. If the object was supposed to be transported, ensure that it was successfully imported into the target system.
  Recreate the Object: If the object has been deleted and is not recoverable, you may need to recreate it. This could involve restoring it from a backup or re-developing it.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the object. You can check this using transaction SU53 to analyze authorization issues.
  System Consistency Check: Run consistency checks in the system to identify any inconsistencies that may be causing the issue. This can be done using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE14 (Database Utility).
