SCTS_HDI241 - Details

• The SAP error message SCTS_HDI241 indicates that there is a cycle detected in the dependencies of objects within an HDI (HANA Deployment Infrastructure) container. This typically occurs when there are circular references among database objects, such as tables, views, or procedures, which can lead to issues during deployment.
  
  Cause:
  The cycle in the HDI container can be caused by:
  
  Circular Dependencies: Two or more objects reference each other directly or indirectly, creating a loop.
  Improper Object Design: The design of the database objects may not adhere to best practices, leading to interdependencies that are not resolvable.
  Changes in Object Definitions: Modifications to object definitions that introduce new dependencies or alter existing ones can create cycles.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the SCTS_HDI241 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Identify Circular Dependencies:
  
  Review the objects in the HDI container to identify which objects are involved in the cycle. You can use tools like the SAP HANA Studio or SQL scripts to
