Table maintenance generator Issue

[Former Member]

When i tried to maintain table maintenance for a particular standard table it throwed the below error message ,when i moved it to production environment.

"Check maintenance object or update function group ".

Has anyone face this kind of problem.Please help.

Ideally, you must never create a table maintenance on Standard SAP tables - because you would be bypassing internal SAP validations w.r.t. data consistency by updating records directly via SM30.

Anyway - if you have done this - you must ensure that the table technical settings dont conflict with the table maintenance object - which might be the case here. E.g. the table might be an application table but you have set up the table maintenance object as a configuration object. Such cases would create a conflict.

Which standard table are you trying to create a maintenance on?

For form 16 we are following SAP notes to do this.The std table is J_1I_SECCO_CIT.When i move it to production i have got the following error message:

Check maintenance object J_1I_SECCO_CIT or update function group J1I_TABLE_MAINTThe table maintenance dialog called has no maintenance object description. This can be for the following reasons:

1. It is an SAP table maintenance dialog which was delivered without a maintenance object description.

2. The table maintenance dialog is a customer development from Release 3.0A or later and an error may have occurred in the maintenance dialog transport so that the maintenance object description has not arrived in the target sytem.

3. The table maintenance dialog is a customer development from before Release 3.0A, and you have not used this maintenance dialog since the upgrade to a higher release. You must then change the maintenance dialog for the changed transport link because the transport link to the extended table maintenance (View maintenance, SM30) was changed for Release 3.0A.

There is now an automatic transport link in addition to the manual transport link which has existed since 2.0: the user must now specify a change request when saving in the table maintenance dialog. All changed entries are then put in the change request via the automatic transport link.

The extended table maintenance transport link changes require changes in the generated parts of the table maintenance dialog and the creation of, so that they must be regenerated.

If you use user routines in the table maintenance dialog to link to other tables which are maintained by user routines, they must also be slightly modified.

System Response

1st case: contact SAP.

2nd case: retransport the missing maintenance object description or create it.

3rd case: regenerate your maintenance dialog and modify your user routines if necessary. Otherwise the required function cannot be performed.

Since it appears to be a OSS note implemnetation - please ensure you have not missed out any Pre-requisite note implementation which might be causing the issue. Also revisit your transports related to the note to ensure you have not missed importing any transport AND transports have been imported into PRD in correct sequence.

HI,

Table maintanance for the standard table is not recommented by sap.

You can use BAPI or BDC method to update the table.

Eventually you can create a maintainance view for this table and then create the table maintanance there.
