  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message REDB001 - &1 &2 does not exist ?

    The SAP error message REDB001 typically indicates that a specific object (like a table, view, or other database object) does not exist in the system. The placeholders &1 and &2 in the error message usually represent the name of the object and the type of object, respectively.

    Cause:

    1. Object Not Created: The object you are trying to access has not been created in the database.
    2. Incorrect Naming: There may be a typo or incorrect naming in the object reference.
    3. Transport Issues: If the object was supposed to be transported from another system (like Development to Production), it may not have been included in the transport request.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the object.
    5. Database Issues: The database might be in an inconsistent state, or there could be connectivity issues.

    Solution:

    1. Verify Object Existence: Check if the object actually exists in the database. You can do this by using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to look for the object.
    2. Check Naming: Ensure that the name of the object is spelled correctly and matches the expected format.
    3. Transport Check: If the object was supposed to be transported, check the transport logs to ensure it was successfully moved to the target system.
    4. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the object. You can check this using transaction SU53 to see if there are any authorization issues.
    5. Database Consistency: If you suspect database issues, you may need to run consistency checks or consult with your database administrator.
