    How to fix this error?

    If the table is a customer-specific table and you still need the data,
    try to restore the table in ABAP Dictionary. Note the specified table
    type when you do this (transparent table, pooled table, and so on).
    The table may still, for example, be contained in the version database.
    You can access version management under "Utilities" in ABAP Dictionary
    (transaction SE11). You may also have a copy of the system that still
    contains the table definition. You can also display the runtime object
    and create the table according to the field names, types, and lengths
    specified in the definition. You can display the runtime object in the
    menu "Extras" of the database utility (transaction SE14).
    If you no longer need the table, delete it on the database and repeat
    the check.
