• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GT136 - Table & is made transparent by "transparent" flag ?

  The SAP error message GT136 indicates that a table is made transparent by the "transparent" flag, which means that the table is defined in a way that it can be directly accessed in the database. This error typically arises when there is an issue with the definition or configuration of a database table in the ABAP Dictionary.
  Cause:
  
  Table Definition Issues: The error may occur if there are inconsistencies in the table definition, such as incorrect data types, missing primary keys, or other structural problems.
  Transport Issues: If the table was transported from one system to another, there may be issues with the transport that caused the table to be incorrectly defined.
  Database Constraints: The underlying database may have constraints that are not being met by the table definition in SAP.
  Development Environment: If you are working in a development environment, there may be issues with the way the table was created or modified.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Table Definition: Go to the ABAP Dictionary (transaction SE11) and check the definition of the table. Ensure that all fields are correctly defined, and that there is a primary key.
  Activate the Table: If there are any changes made to the table definition, make sure to activate the table. This can be done in SE11 by selecting the table and clicking on the "Activate" button.
  Transport Request: If the issue is related to a transport, check the transport request for any errors and ensure that the table is correctly included in the transport.
  Database Consistency: Check the underlying database for any inconsistencies or constraints that may be affecting the table. You may need to consult with your database administrator.
  Recreate the Table: If the table is severely corrupted or misconfigured, you may need to recreate it. This should be done with caution and typically in a development environment first.
