What causes this issue?

Databases behave differently with regard to dependent views of database
tables when Ddl statements are performed on the table. For example, they
can be deleted or deactivated. Therefore, the dependent views are
deleted from the database and created in new ones in order to meet the
demands of each of these behaviors.
During this process, at least one view could not be handled correctly.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GT613 - Problems while deleting and recreating dependent views ?

  The SAP error message GT613, which indicates "Problems while deleting and recreating dependent views," typically arises in the context of data modeling or when working with database views in SAP systems, particularly in SAP HANA or BW environments. This error can occur during operations such as data modeling, where dependent views are being modified or deleted.
  Causes:
  
  Dependency Issues: The error often occurs when there are existing dependencies on the views you are trying to delete or recreate. If other views, tables, or objects depend on the view, the system may prevent deletion.
  Locking Issues: If the view is currently being accessed or locked by another process or user, it may lead to this error.
  Data Integrity Constraints: There may be constraints or rules in place that prevent the deletion or recreation of the views.
  Technical Errors: There could be underlying technical issues, such as database inconsistencies or problems with the SAP HANA database itself.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to check for any dependent objects. Ensure that there are no active dependencies before attempting to delete or recreate the view.
  Release Locks: If the view is locked, identify the user or process holding the lock and release it. You can use transaction SM12 to view and manage locks.
  Review Data Integrity: Ensure that there are no data integrity constraints that would prevent the operation. This may involve checking for foreign key relationships or other constraints.
  Recreate Views Manually: If automatic recreation fails, consider manually recreating the views after ensuring that all dependencies are resolved.
  Check for Technical Issues: If the problem persists, check for any technical issues in the database. This may involve running consistency checks or consulting with your database administrator.
  Consult SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for known issues.
