  The SAP error message "SAP_DOI001 &1 is not an ABAP table" typically indicates that the system is trying to access a database table that is either not defined as an ABAP table or does not exist in the system. This error can occur in various scenarios, such as when trying to read data from a table that has not been properly created or when there is a typo in the table name.
  Causes:
  
  Non-existent Table: The specified table does not exist in the SAP system.
  Typographical Error: There may be a typo in the table name being referenced.
  Incorrect Table Type: The object being referenced is not an ABAP database table (it could be a view, structure, or another object type).
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the table.
  Transport Issues: If the table was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly activated or may not exist in the target system.

  Check Table Existence: Verify that the table exists in the system by using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) and checking if the table name is correct.
  Correct Typographical Errors: Ensure that the table name is spelled correctly in the code or configuration where the error is occurring.

  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the table. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  Transport Validation: If the table was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that it was successfully imported and activated in the target system.
  Debugging: If the error occurs in a custom program or report, consider debugging the code to identify where the incorrect table reference is being made.
