  SAP Error Message:
  VO703 - Info Structure &: Entry missing in table TMC4
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when the system tries to access or update an Info Structure (InfoCube) in SAP Logistics (especially in Sales and Distribution or Logistics Information System - LIS), but the corresponding entry for the Info Structure is missing in the customizing table TMC4.
  
  TMC4 is a customizing table that stores metadata about Info Structures, such as their definitions and attributes.
  When the system processes data for a particular Info Structure, it looks up TMC4 to find the configuration.
  If the entry is missing, the system cannot proceed, resulting in the VO703 error.
  
  Common causes:
  
  The Info Structure has not been created or activated properly.
  The Info Structure was deleted or corrupted.
  Transport issues where the customizing for the Info Structure was not imported.
  Custom or standard Info Structure is referenced but not maintained in TMC4.
  
  
  Solution / How to Fix:
  
  
  Check if the Info Structure exists:
  
  Go to transaction MC41 (Create Info Structure) or MC42 (Change Info Structure).
  Enter the Info Structure name (the one mentioned in the error message).
  If it does not exist, create it or restore it from a backup or transport.
  
  
  
  Activate the Info Structure:
  
  If the Info Structure exists but is inactive, activate it in MC41/MC42.
  Activation will create the necessary entries in TMC4.
  
  
  
  Check Table TMC4:
  
  Use SE16/SE16N to check if the Info Structure entry exists in TMC4.
  If missing, activating the Info Structure should recreate it.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues:
  
  If the Info Structure was transported from another system, verify that the customizing transport was imported correctly.
  Re-import the transport if necessary.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Repair Info Structure:
  
  If the Info Structure is corrupted, consider deleting and recreating it.
  Be cautious as deleting Info Structures can lead to data loss in LIS.
  
  
  
  Check OSS Notes:
  
  Search SAP OSS Notes for VO703 and related Info Structure issues.
  Sometimes SAP provides patches or corrections.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Info Structures are used in SAP LIS to store summarized data for reporting.
  Table TMC4 contains the metadata for these Info Structures.
  The error VO703 is informational but prevents further processing until resolved.
  This error is common during data loads, LIS updates, or when running reports that rely on Info Structures.
