  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WE030 - Table & not current ?

    The SAP error message:

    WE030 Table & not current

    typically occurs when working with IDoc processing or related table maintenance in SAP.


    Cause

    This error indicates that the specified table (represented by & in the message, which is a placeholder for the actual table name) is not current. In SAP terminology, "not current" means that the table's structure or metadata in the system is outdated or inconsistent with the current dictionary or runtime environment.

    Common reasons include:

    • The table has been changed in the ABAP Dictionary (SE11), but the changes have not been activated or transported properly.
    • The table's buffer is outdated or inconsistent.
    • There is a mismatch between the table definition in the system and the expected structure by the IDoc or related process.
    • The system is trying to access a table that has been deleted or renamed.
    • The table is a cluster or pooled table and the system cannot access it properly.

    Solution

    1. Check Table Status in SE11:

      • Go to transaction SE11.
      • Enter the table name shown in the error message.
      • Check if the table exists and is active.
      • If the table is inactive, activate it.
    2. Re-activate the Table:

      • Sometimes, re-activating the table in SE11 can resolve inconsistencies.
      • Open the table in SE11 and choose Activate.
    3. Check Transport Requests:

      • If the table was recently changed, ensure that the transport request containing the table changes has been imported into the system.
    4. Clear Table Buffer:

      • Use transaction SE14 (Database Utility).
      • Enter the table name.
      • Choose Database Object ? Delete Buffer or Recreate to refresh the table buffer.
    5. Check for System Consistency:

      • Run consistency checks for the table or related IDoc objects.
      • Use transaction WE30 (IDoc Type Development) or WE02/WE05 (IDoc Monitoring) to check if the IDoc types related to the table are consistent.
    6. Check for OSS Notes:

      • Search SAP OSS Notes for the specific table and error message.
      • Sometimes SAP releases patches or notes for known issues.

    Related Information

    • Transaction WE30 is used for IDoc type development and might be related if the error occurs during IDoc processing.
    • The error message is often encountered during IDoc inbound/outbound processing or when generating IDoc segments.
    • Table inconsistencies can cause IDoc processing failures.
    • If the table is a standard SAP table, ensure your system is up to date with the latest support packages.
    • For custom tables, ensure proper activation and transport management.
