• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TL072 - Structure error: & not available or not active ?

  The SAP error message TL072, which states "Structure error: & not available or not active," typically occurs when there is an issue with the data structure or the configuration of the system. This error can arise in various contexts, such as when working with data structures in ABAP programs, data dictionary objects, or during the execution of certain transactions.
  Causes:
  
  Inactive Data Structure: The data structure (like a table or a view) that you are trying to access is not active. In SAP, objects must be activated before they can be used.
  Missing Data Structure: The specified data structure does not exist in the system, possibly due to a transport issue or deletion.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data structure.
  Transport Issues: If the structure was recently transported from another system, it may not have been activated in the target system.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue in the application that is trying to access the structure.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Activate the Structure: 
  
  Go to the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11) and check if the structure is active. If it is not, activate it.
  If you are unsure of the structure name, you can check the error message for the specific name that is causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Check Existence: 
  
  Verify that the structure exists in the system. If it does not, you may need to create it or transport it from another system.

  If the structure was recently transported, ensure that all related objects were also transported and activated. Check the transport logs for any errors.
