• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDS_DOWN_UPLOAD064 - Except_tab: Tables in package & must not be delta (&) ?

  The SAP error message MDS_DOWN_UPLOAD064 indicates that there is an issue with the delta upload process in the Master Data Services (MDS) related to the tables in a specific package. The error message suggests that the tables in the specified package should not be delta tables, but they are being treated as such.
  Cause:
  
  Delta Table Configuration: The error typically arises when a table that is configured to be a delta table is included in a package that is not set up to handle delta uploads. Delta tables are designed to handle incremental changes rather than full data loads.

  Data Model Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data model or the way the tables are defined in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Table Configuration: Review the configuration of the tables in the package. Ensure that the tables that are included in the package are not set as delta tables if they are not supposed to be.
  Adjust Package Settings: If the package is intended to handle delta uploads, ensure that all tables included are appropriately configured to support delta processing.
  Review Data Model: Check the data model for any inconsistencies or misconfigurations that could lead to this error. Make sure that the definitions of the tables align with the intended use.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for guidelines on configuring delta uploads and packages. This can provide insights into best practices and common pitfalls.
  Testing: After making adjustments, perform a test upload to verify that the issue has been resolved.
