• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOI1357 - Transp. table &1 changed to GTT, table will be dropped as late operation ?

  The SAP error message SOI1357 indicates that a transport table has been changed to a Global Temporary Table (GTT) and that the original table will be dropped as part of a late operation. This typically occurs in the context of database operations where a table's structure or properties are modified, particularly in relation to how data is stored and accessed.
  Cause:
  
  Change in Table Definition: The error usually arises when a transport table (a table that is part of a transport request) has been modified to become a Global Temporary Table. This change can happen due to a database migration, an update in the SAP system, or manual changes made to the table definition.
  Database Configuration: The underlying database configuration or settings may have been altered, leading to the table being treated as a temporary table.
  Transport Request Issues: If the transport request that includes the table definition is not properly managed or if there are inconsistencies in the transport layers, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Request: Review the transport request that includes the table definition. Ensure that it is correctly configured and that all necessary objects are included.
  Database Administration: Consult with your database administrator to understand why the table was changed to a GTT. They may need to revert the change or adjust the database settings.
  Recreate the Table: If the table is no longer needed or if it was incorrectly changed, you may need to drop the GTT and recreate the original table structure.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. SAP frequently releases notes that provide guidance on resolving known issues.
  System Logs: Review system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the change to the table.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Global Temporary Tables (GTT): These are tables that hold temporary data and are typically used for session-specific data. They are not intended for permanent storage and can lead to data loss if not managed properly.
  Transport Management System (TMS): Understanding how the TMS works can help in managing transport requests and ensuring that changes are applied correctly across different environments (development, quality assurance, production).
  Database Documentation: Familiarize yourself with the documentation for the specific database you are using (e.g., Oracle, SQL Server, HANA) to understand how it handles temporary tables and any implications of changing table types.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage SAP support for further assistance.
