• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VH110 - Description for table & not available ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  VH110 - Description for table & not available
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when SAP tries to display or access the description (text) for a particular table, but the description is not maintained or available in the system. The placeholder "&" in the message is replaced by the actual table name at runtime.
  Typically, this happens when:
  
  The table exists but its short description or documentation is missing.
  The system is trying to fetch the description from the Data Dictionary (SE11) but finds it empty.
  There might be a missing or incomplete language-dependent text for the table.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Table Description in SE11:
  
  Go to transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary).
  Enter the table name (the one shown in the error message).
  Check if the Short Description field is filled.
  If empty, maintain a meaningful description and save it.
  
  
  
  Maintain Texts for the Table:
  
  In SE11, after entering the table name, click on Extras ? Texts ? Table Texts.
  Ensure that the language-dependent texts are maintained properly.
  If missing, add the necessary descriptions.
  
  
  
  Transport Changes (if applicable):
  
  If you maintain the description in a development system, make sure to transport the changes to the target system.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Sometimes, the user might not have authorization to view the table description.
  Verify user roles and authorizations related to Data Dictionary access.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Tables:
  
  If the table is custom (Z or Y table), ensure that the description was maintained during table creation.
  If not, maintain it now.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction SE11: Used to view and maintain table definitions and descriptions.
  Table Descriptions: Important for documentation and usability in SAP GUI and reports.
  Language Settings: Descriptions are language-dependent; ensure texts are maintained for the relevant languages.
  SAP Notes: Sometimes SAP releases notes related to missing descriptions or UI issues; check SAP Support Portal if the problem persists.
  
  
  Summary:
  The VH110 error indicates missing description text for a table. The fix is to maintain the table's short description and related texts in SE11. This ensures that SAP can display the table description properly wherever required.
