This error can arise due to various reasons, including configuration issues, missing objects, or authorization problems.

    Causes:

    1. Missing or Inactive CDS View: The CDS view referenced in the error message may not exist or may be inactive in the system.
    2. Authorization Issues: The user executing the transaction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the CDS view or the underlying database objects.
    3. Transport Issues: If the CDS view was recently transported from another system, it may not have been activated properly in the target system.
    4. Database Issues: There may be issues with the underlying database, such as missing tables or views that the CDS view depends on.
    5. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the CDS view or the related data model may be incorrect.

    Solutions:

    1. Check the Existence of the CDS View:

      • Use transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check if the CDS view exists and is active.
      • If it is inactive, activate it.
    2. Verify Authorizations:

      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the CDS view and any related database objects.
      • Check the roles assigned to the user and make sure they include access to the relevant objects.
    3. Re-transport and Activate:

      • If the CDS view was recently transported, ensure that it has been activated in the target system.
      • You may need to re-transport the object or manually activate it.
    4. Check Dependencies:

      • Investigate if the CDS view has dependencies on other database objects (like tables or other views) and ensure those objects are also present and active.
    5. Database Consistency:

      • Run database consistency checks to ensure that there are no issues with the underlying database that could affect the CDS view.
    6. Review Logs:

      • Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages that may provide additional context for the issue.
