  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SEHS/BA_MISC1730 - Reference object & is not an active data dictionary table ?

    The SAP error message /SEHS/BA_MISC1730 Reference object & is not an active data dictionary table typically indicates that the system is trying to access a data dictionary table that is either not active or does not exist in the system. This can occur in various scenarios, such as during data processing, report generation, or when executing certain transactions.

    Cause:

    1. Inactive Table: The referenced table may not be activated in the Data Dictionary. This can happen if the table was recently created or modified and has not been activated yet.
    2. Missing Table: The table may not exist in the system due to a transport issue or if it was deleted.
    3. Incorrect Reference: The reference to the table may be incorrect, possibly due to a typo or an outdated reference in the code or configuration.
    4. Transport Issues: If the table was part of a transport request that did not successfully import, it may not be available in the target system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Table Activation:

      • Go to transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary).
      • Enter the name of the table that is causing the error and check if it is active. If it is not active, activate it.
    2. Verify Table Existence:

      • Again, in transaction SE11, check if the table exists. If it does not, you may need to create it or transport it from another system.
    3. Review Code/Configuration:

      • If the error is occurring in a custom program or configuration, review the code to ensure that the reference to the table is correct.
    4. Transport Management:

      • If the table was supposed to be transported from another system, check the transport logs to ensure that the transport was successful and that the table is present in the target system.
    5. Check Authorization:

      • Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the table. Lack of authorization can sometimes lead to misleading error messages.
    6. Consult Documentation:

      • If the table is part of a standard SAP application, consult the relevant SAP documentation or notes for any known issues or additional steps that may be required.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SE11: Data Dictionary
      • SE80: Object Navigator
      • SE37: Function Module
      • SE38: ABAP Editor
    • SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.

    • Debugging: If you have access to debugging tools, you can set breakpoints in the code where the error occurs to get more context on why the system is trying to access the inactive table.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
