    How to fix this error?

    No action necessary.
    Note that matchcode IDs can only be built or deleted for physically
    implemented matchcode IDs with SAPMACO.
    For transparent IDs, the necessary views are already created on the
    database when the IDs are activated. You therefore do not have to do
    anything in this case.
    If you accidentally deleted the view for a transparent ID on the
    database, you can create it again with transaction SE14. Please also
    use SE14 to delete it.
