Hi,

When I use a search help for a field in CJ01 for the PROJ-PSPID.

When I check in se11, I first get an information message saying 'View does not exists in database' but still it opens when i click enter.

Any clue on why this happens?

Thanks,

Anami

Sounds like the view exists in the ABAP dictionary but not in the database for some reason. You must know that SAP provides an abstraction from the database layer, this is the ABAP Dictionary, but in some cases you could have the meta data in the dictionary, but the actuall DB object doesn't exist on the DB level. This is a rare occurance in my experience. In order to fix this, you need to go to transaction SE14, enter the view name and hit enter. In the "status" section, you may see as "Active", and then below, it may say "does not exist in DB", Make sure to select the radiobutton below for "Save Data", and click the Activate and Adjust button and see if it gets created in the DB.
