• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCTS_HDI088 - Object was created manually in Web IDE but not yet checked out ?

  The SAP error message SCTS_HDI088 indicates that an object was created manually in the SAP Web IDE but has not yet been checked out. This typically occurs in the context of SAP HANA development, particularly when using the SAP HANA Deployment Infrastructure (HDI) for managing database artifacts.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You create an object (like a table, view, or procedure) directly in the SAP Web IDE without checking it out from the HDI container.
  The HDI container expects all changes to be made through the development environment (like the Web IDE) to maintain version control and consistency.
  The object exists in the HDI container but is not recognized as part of the current development workspace because it was not checked out.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Out the Object:
  
  Open the SAP Web IDE.
  Navigate to the HDI container where the object was created.
  Locate the object that is causing the error.
  Right-click on the object and select the option to check it out. This will synchronize the object with your local workspace.
  
  
  
  Delete and Recreate (if necessary):
  
  If checking out the object does not resolve the issue, you may consider deleting the object from the HDI container and recreating it through the Web IDE while ensuring you check it out first.
  
  
  
  Use Version Control:
  
  Ensure that you are using version control practices when working with HDI containers. Always check out objects before making changes to avoid such issues.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to the official SAP documentation for HDI and Web IDE for more detailed instructions and best practices.
