• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TG476 - Tables &1 is exluded from changerecording ?

  The SAP error message TG476 indicates that a specific table (denoted as &1 in the message) is excluded from change recording. Change recording in SAP is a feature that allows you to track changes made to specific database tables, which can be useful for auditing, data integrity, and other purposes.
  Cause:
  The error message TG476 typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  
  Table Configuration: The table in question has not been configured to allow change recording. This could be due to the table's settings in the Data Dictionary (SE11) or its inclusion in the change recording configuration.
  
  
  Change Recording Not Activated: Change recording may not be activated for the specific table. This can happen if the table is not intended to be tracked for changes, or if it was explicitly excluded from change recording.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or modify change recording settings for the table.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the TG476 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Table Settings:

  Activate Change Recording:
  
  If the table is intended to have change recording, you can activate it by using transaction SCDO (Change Document Objects).
  Create or modify a change document object for the table, ensuring that it is set up correctly to track changes.
  
  
  
  Review Exclusion List:
