  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VERT_TOOLS303 - Source table &1 is client-dependent. No replacement. ?

    The SAP error message VERT_TOOLS303 indicates that there is an issue related to client dependency in the source table you are trying to work with. Specifically, the message states that the source table is client-dependent, and therefore, a replacement or operation cannot be performed as expected.

    Cause:

    1. Client Dependency: The source table you are trying to access or modify is client-dependent, meaning that the data in this table is specific to a particular client in the SAP system. Client-dependent tables store data that is unique to each client, and operations that require a global or cross-client context may not be applicable.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The operation you are attempting may not be valid for client-dependent tables, or there may be a misconfiguration in the way the data is being accessed or manipulated.

    Solution:

    1. Check Table Definition: Verify the definition of the source table to confirm that it is indeed client-dependent. You can do this by checking the table attributes in the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11).
    2. Use Client-Independent Tables: If your operation requires a client-independent context, consider using a client-independent table instead, if applicable.
    3. Adjust Your Query/Operation: If you are trying to perform a replacement or update, ensure that your query or operation is designed to work with client-dependent data. This may involve specifying the client explicitly in your operations.
    4. Review Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access and modify the data in the client-dependent table.
    5. Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or ABAP team for specific guidelines on handling client-dependent tables.

    Related Information:

    • Client Concept in SAP: Understanding the client concept in SAP is crucial. Each client in an SAP system has its own set of data, and operations that span multiple clients must be handled carefully.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE16 (Data Browser), and SE80 (Object Navigator) to explore table structures and data.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance related to client-dependent tables and operations.

    If the problem persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team for further assistance.
