  The SAP error message SADL_DRAFT_TOOL004 indicates that a specific table (denoted as &1 in the error message) is not generated in the context of the SAP Draft Framework. This error typically arises when there is an issue with the generation of the necessary database tables for draft handling in the SAP system.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Table Generation: The table that is supposed to be generated for draft handling has not been created in the database.
  Inconsistent Development Objects: There may be inconsistencies in the development objects related to the draft handling, such as missing or incomplete definitions.
