• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UGMD175 - Table &, role &: Key flags on field &, table & are not disjunct ?

  The SAP error message UGMD175 indicates that there is an issue with key flags on a specific field in a table. This error typically arises when the key flags for a field in a database table are not disjoint, meaning that there are overlapping key definitions that can lead to ambiguity in data retrieval or integrity issues.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Disjoint Key Flags: The key flags for the specified field in the table are not set up correctly, leading to conflicts. This can happen if multiple fields are defined as keys in a way that they overlap or if the same field is marked as a key in multiple contexts.
  Table Definition Issues: There may be an issue with how the table is defined in the Data Dictionary (DDIC). This could be due to incorrect settings or configurations during the table creation or modification process.
  Custom Development: If there has been custom development or modifications to the table or its fields, it may have inadvertently caused the key flags to overlap.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Table Definition: Go to the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11) and check the definition of the table in question. Look at the key fields and ensure that they are defined correctly without overlaps.
  Adjust Key Flags: If you find that the key flags are not disjoint, you will need to adjust them. This may involve removing or changing the key flag on one of the fields to ensure that they are distinct.
  Transport Requests: If changes are made, ensure that they are included in the appropriate transport requests for moving changes to other environments (e.g., from development to production).
  Testing: After making changes, perform thorough testing to ensure that the table behaves as expected and that the error does not reoccur.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific table and error message for any additional guidance or known issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use SE11 (Data Dictionary) to view and modify table definitions, and SE14 (Database Utility) to check the database consistency.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific table or error message.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the program or transaction that is triggering the error to gain more insight into the context in which it occurs.
  
  If you are not comfortable making these changes or if the issue is complex, it may be advisable to consult with an SAP Basis or ABAP consultant who can provide expert assistance.
