  The SAP error message UJW_EXCEPTION003 LKWS_<Appset Prefix><Appl Prefix> table not found typically indicates that the system is unable to locate a specific table that is expected to be present in the database. This error can occur in various contexts, often related to the use of SAP's BW (Business Warehouse) or other data-related applications.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Table: The specified table does not exist in the database. This could be due to a failed installation, an incomplete data load, or a deletion of the table.
  Incorrect Configuration: The application set or prefix may be incorrectly configured, leading the system to look for a table that does not match the expected naming convention.
  Database Issues: There may be issues with the database connection or the database itself, such as corruption or misconfiguration.
  Transport Issues: If the application was recently transported from one system to another, the transport may not have included all necessary objects, including the required tables.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to access the table, leading to the appearance that it does not exist.

  Database Connection: Check the database connection settings to ensure that the system can connect to the database where the table is supposed to reside.

  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the table. You can check this in transaction SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
  Recreate Table: If the table is indeed missing and should exist, you may need to recreate it. This could involve running a data load or executing a specific program that creates the table.
