• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VC2OD_DMT_ASSIST023 - No valid dependency for table maintenance ?

  The SAP error message VC2OD_DMT_ASSIST023: No valid dependency for table maintenance typically occurs when there is an issue with the configuration of the table maintenance generator (TMG) for a specific table. This error indicates that the system cannot find a valid dependency for the table maintenance operation you are trying to perform.
  Causes:
  
  
  Missing or Incorrect Dependencies: The table maintenance generator may not have the correct dependencies set up for the table you are trying to maintain. This can happen if the table is not properly linked to its related tables or if the dependencies have been deleted or modified incorrectly.
  
  
  Table Configuration Issues: The configuration of the table itself may be incorrect, such as missing primary keys or foreign key relationships that are necessary for the maintenance view.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform table maintenance, which can lead to this error.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the table maintenance generator was transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies in the configuration that lead to this error.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Table Maintenance Generator Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary) and check the configuration of the table maintenance generator for the specific table.
  Ensure that the dependencies are correctly defined and that the TMG is properly set up.
  
  
  
  Recreate Table Maintenance Generator:
  
  If the configuration seems incorrect, you can recreate the table maintenance generator. Use transaction code SE11, select the table, and then choose "Table Maintenance Generator" to recreate it.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Verify that all necessary dependencies (like foreign keys) are correctly defined in the table. You can check this in the Data Dictionary (SE11) under the "Foreign Keys" tab.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform table maintenance. Check the user roles and authorizations in transaction code SU01.
  
  
  
  Transport Consistency:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or inconsistencies. You may need to re-import the transport or adjust the configuration manually.
