How To Fix TR_AUSL633 - Table type and data element have identical name

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: TR_AUSL - Software Delivery Composer Messages

• Message number: 633

• Message text: Table type and data element have identical name

What causes this issue?

When you deliver a table type and a data element with identical names,
you cause activation errors in the import. Identical names are therefore
not allowed. This combination can occur only if an existing table type
has been deleted and a data element with the same name has been created,
or the other way round.

System Response

The system displays two entries with the action <LS>Remove from Request
</>.

How to fix this error?

Speak to the development team about the situation.
If the deleted table type or deleted data element has not yet been
delivered to the customer, you can remove the deleted object from the
delivery and leave the new object in the delivery.
Otherwise, the development team must delete the existing table type or
existing data element and, if necessary, create a table type or data
element with a different name. You must then remove the appropriate
entry from the delivery request by selecting the entry and choosing
<LS>Correct Entries</>. Then include the table type or data element with
the new name in the delivery request. Run the check again.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
