  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UG073 - INACTDDIC: Index & & & to be exported ?

    The SAP error message UG073, which states "INACTDDIC: Index & & & to be exported," typically indicates an issue related to the inactive dictionary objects in the SAP system. This error often arises during the transport of objects or when trying to activate or export dictionary objects that are not in an active state.

    Cause:

    1. Inactive Dictionary Objects: The error usually occurs when there are dictionary objects (like tables, views, indexes) that are not active or have not been properly activated in the system.
    2. Transport Issues: It can also happen if there are inconsistencies in the transport directory or if the transport request is trying to include inactive objects.
    3. Development Environment: If you are working in a development environment, it may be that the objects were created but not activated.

    Solution:

    1. Activate the Dictionary Objects:

      • Go to the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11).
      • Check the status of the index mentioned in the error message.

    2. Check Transport Requests:

      • Ensure that the transport request does not include inactive objects. You can check this in transaction SE09 or SE10.
      • If necessary, remove the inactive objects from the transport request.
    3. Rebuild Indexes:

      • If the index is corrupted or not functioning properly, you may need to rebuild it. This can be done using transaction SE14 (Database Utility) to adjust the database objects.
    4. Check for Dependencies:

      • Sometimes, other objects may depend on the inactive index. Ensure that all dependent objects are also active.
    5. Consult SAP Notes:
