  The SAP error message WN003, which states "No maintenance view exists for table &1," typically occurs when you attempt to create or access a maintenance view for a database table that does not have a corresponding maintenance view defined in the system. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Missing Maintenance View: The primary reason for this error is that the specified table (denoted by &1) does not have a maintenance view created in the Data Dictionary (SE11).

  Solution:
  
  
  Create a Maintenance View:
  
  If you have the necessary authorizations, you can create a maintenance view for the table:
