BW - Unknown objects in ABAP Dictionary - DB Tables

Hello gurus,
As a result of the consistency check in DB02 transaction, our BW System is showing a high number of "DB Tables" and "DB Tables withouth unique index" as unknown objects in the ABAP dictionary.
Is there any way to solve these consistency issues detected in DB02?
Thanks
Regards

Hi Dibya,
I checked the SAP note 33814 and it tooke me to the SAP note 449891 - Temporary database objects in BW 3.X
According to the recommendations, I executed the report SAP_UPDATE_DBDIFF, and I got as result 579 secondary indexes missing in the DB from the and still the 5 DB Tables unknown in the ABAP dictionary and 2 DB Tables withouth unique index,
I executed the report SAP_INFOCUBE_INDEXES_REPAIR in order to try to repair the secondary missing indexes that were shwon but withouth getting any results.
Do you have any recommendation to solve this situation? In the original scenario the DB02 transaction wasn't reporting any missing index.
Thanks and regards,

DB02 = Missing Tables and Indexes = Unknown objects in ABAP Dictionary = DB views

Hi SAP Gurus,
on our SAP NetWeaver 7.x BW (based on AIX/Oracle) I find via transaction DB02 (path = Diagnostics => Missing Tables and Indexes) under "Unknown objects in ABAP Dictionary" under DB views a BW object /BI0/.....
When I make a double click on the object, I am getting the popup window "Display not possible for this object":
How can I identify the object and clarify with the BW application expert, if needed, how to resolve this object?
I searched already via RSA1 for the object, but I wasn't able to find anything so far ...
Thanks for your help and ideas.
Best regards
Carlos

Hello Carlos
The database view in question is a temporary database object created during a query execution.
Please read this SAP note 449891 - Temporary database objects in BW 3.x to understand what that view is all about and impact if those views are removed.
The SAP notes 449891 and 1139396 suggests to run the report SAP_DROP_TMPTABLES to drop these temporary objects. Whether the objects are still required or not is a question to be put across to the BW team. If the temporary objects are removed when they are used by a query, then the query will fail.
Have a nice day

Unknown Objects in ABAP Dictionary

Hello Everyone,
I am getting a few objects that come up when running the Missing tables and Indexes command in the DBCOCKPIT. Under Unknown Objects in ABAP Dictionary I have the following objects appear:
sap_tabstats
V_MSSDWDLLS
sap_tabstats_V_newest
sap_tabstats_V_oldest
I cannot find anything referencing how to correct this issue. Can anyone be of any assistance? I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Hi:
for sap_tabstats, sap_tabstats_V_oldest and sap_tabstats_V_newest you can find in note 1027512 :
4. IMPORTANT CHANGES IN DATA COLLECTION AND HISTORY
o Applying SP12 on a SQL Server system will introduce a new method
        for collecting database and table size histories. This new
        methode relies on t-sql objects sap_tabstats,
        sap_tabstats_V_newest, and sap_tabstats_V_oldest. These items
        aren't in the data dictionary and should be ignored in any
        discrepancy reports. They are added to an exception table for
        SP13.
For V_MSSDWDLLS you should read note 1020865. The view can be ignored.

Unknown object in ABAP Dictionary

Hello
In st04 in "Missing tables and indexes" are many indexes have reported unknown "Unknown object in ABAP Dictionary".
This is because indexex are created directly in DB. Is there a way to solve this problem?
We have db : oracle 10.2.04 and sap SAP ECC 6.0 (Pkg. lvl. 254).

Hi,
In ST04, If you click Missing tables and indexes then next to "Unknown object in ABAP Dictionary" there is a information button which says as below, kindly go through it which could help you.
" Here objects which were found on the database but which are not defined
in the ABAP Dictionary are displayed. These objects are displayed for
information only, since they generally do not belong to the SAP System.
These objects normally do not cause problems.
The objects are generally created directly with database means. If the
author is unknown, the purpose of the table can sometimes be determined
using the display function. Any data can only be displayed with database
means since the SAP tools for displaying data are based on the
definition in the ABAP Dictionary.
In some cases, such objects were already overlooked by SAP at delivery
or occurred during upgrading. To check this, search in OSS using the
keyword DB02 and the Release level for a corresponding Note.
Customer tables, views and indexes should always be created with the
ABAP Dictionary. This is the only way to ensure that the objects are
recognized by the SAP System and that for example collisions can be
avoided during an upgrade."

Sharath

Unknown object in ABAP dictionary- TADIR^SRCDEP

Hi,
I found an entry in unknown object in ABAP dictionary while monitoring the system.
This this the location I found this entry DBACOCKPIT-> Diagnostics-> missing table and indexes-> unknown object in ABAP dictionary.
Could you please help to figure out how to solve this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Pradeep

Hello,
You can ignore the index TADIR^SRCDEP in transaction DB2.
The installation creates the index TADIR^SRCDEP to avoid hanging
situations on the database while executing reports. When the
installation is finished you can delete this index.
Drop the index TADIR^SRCDEP on the database:
    o start SQL Server Management Studio
    o connect to your SQL Server
    o open a query window and execute the following command (replace
       SID by the uppercase system name, sid by the lowercase system
       name):
       drop index [TADIR^SRCDEP] on SID.sid.TADIR

You should be able to delete and recreate indexes from the infocube performance tab, RSRV or DB02. The bigger question is why these e fact table indexes are not being handled properly. I would try searching OSS Notes to see if yo ufind one relevant for your DB;
This older Notes provides some good background

Hello Varsha,
It seems that the index for these InfoProviders are missing.
Goto RSRV -> Elementary Test -> Database -> Database Indices of an InfoCube and Its Aggregates
It should be green. If its red there will be a correct button on the top just excute it
or You can use the following Function Module to check

What are the basic objects in abap dictionary ?

Try to provide the details if anyone knows about it.

The DDIC is nothing but the ABAP Dictionary. The ABAP Dictionary centrally describes and manages all the data definitions used in the system.
Data types
Data types are the actual type definitions in the ABAP Dictionary. They allow you to define elementary types, reference types, and complex types that are visible globally in the system. The data types of database tables are a subset of all possible types, namely flat structures.
Data Elements
Data elements in the ABAP Dictionary describe individual fields. They are the smallest indivisible units of the complex types described below, and are used to specify the types of columns in the database. Data elements can be elementary types or reference types.
Structures
A structure is a sequence of any other data types from the ABAP Dictionary, that is, data elements, structures, table types, or database tables. When you create a structure in the ABAP Dictionary, each component must have a name and a data type. In an ABAP program, you can use the TYPE addition to refer directly to a structure.
If you define a local data type in a program by referring to a structure as follows:
TYPES <t> TYPE <structure>.
Table Types
Table types are construction blueprints for internal tables that are stored in the ABAP Dictionary.
When you create a table type in the ABAP Dictionary, you specify the line type, access type, and key. The line type can be any data type from the ABAP Dictionary, that is, a data element, a structure, a table type, or the type of a database table. You can also enter a predefined Dictionary type directly as the line type, in the same way that you can with a domain.
Type Groups
Before Release 4.5A, it was not possible to define standalone types in the ABAP Dictionary to which you could refer using a TYPE addition in an ABAP program. It was only possible to refer SAP AG BC - ABAP Programming
Data Types in the ABAP Dictionary to flat structures. Structures in programs corresponded to the structures of database tables or structures in the ABAP Dictionary. In ABAP programs, you could only refer to database tables and structures in the ABAP Dictionary using LIKE. It was, however, possible to refer to individual components of the Dictionary type. Complex local data types such as internal tables or deep structures had no equivalent in the ABAP Dictionary. The solution to this from Release 3.0 onwards was to use type groups. Type groups were based on the include technique, and allowed you to store any type definitions globally in the Dictionary by defining them using TYPES statements.
Views:
There are 4 types views are avilable in SAP.
Database View - To club more than one table
Projection View - To hide fields in one table
Maintanance View - To maintain database records in table
Help View - To provide help for a fields (Same functionality as Search help. This is outdated)
View are improves perfromance in the following aspects
1. If you want to use more than two table in 'JOIN' condition better to use Views . It will improves performance of a program
2. If you want to use mutiple FOR ALL ENTRIES clause, better to club all SELECT statement in a view.
Lock Objects:
Lock objects are use in SAP to avoid the inconsistancy at the time of data is being insert/change into database.
SAP Provide three type of Lock objects.
Read Lock(Shared Locked)
protects read access to an object. The read lock allows other transactions read access but not write access to
the locked area of the table
Write Lock(exclusive lock)
protects write access to an object. The write lock allows other transactions neither read nor write access to
the locked area of the table.
Enhanced write lock (exclusive lock without cumulating)
works like a write lock except that the enhanced write lock also protects from further accesses from the
same transaction.
You can create a lock on a object of SAP thorugh transaction SE11 and enter any meaningful name start with EZ Example EZTEST_LOCK.
Use: you can see in almost all transaction when you are open an object in Change mode SAP could not allow to any other user to open the same object in change mode.
Example: in HR when we are enter a personal number in master data maintainance screen SAP can't allow to any other user to use same personal number for changes.
Technicaly:
When you create a lock object System automatically creat two function module.
1. ENQUEUE_<Lockobject name>. to insert the object in a queue.
2. DEQUEUE_<Lockobject name>. To remove the object is being queued through above FM.
You have to use these function module in your program.
Search Helps:
These are two types.
Elementary n Collective.
1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.

Delete restrict for ABAP Dictionary database table

Hi,
I defined two database tables in ABAP dictionary, one with master data, and one with records referencing the master data.
I also defined a foreign key relationship in the second table, so that new entries in the second table are checked against the master data table.
In addition to this behaviour, I also want the Dicitionary to perform a check the other way round. In other words, if I try to delete a record in the master data table, this should not be possible if there are records in the second table referencing this record. Thats how foreign key relationships work in Oracle databases.
Is there a way to force this behaviour for ABAP Dictionary tables, too? Or is it possible to make the table maintenance view perform this check?
Thanks for your help!
Kind regards,
Tobias

Hello Tobias,
I can delete records in the master table which have dependent entries in the second table without an error or a warning.
How are you deleting the entries, via SM30?
If yes, you can use the [Event 03: Before Deleting the Display Data|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/91/ca9f14a9d111d1a5690000e82deaaa/content.htm]. In this TMG event you can check if the entry can be deleted at all!
If you're using Open SQL statements to delete the records, i don't think DB layer implicitly checks the dependency. You can always put an explicit check though
Btw, out-of-curiosity, is this a custom or standard table?
BR,
Suhas

Register Table in ABAP Dictionary

One of our SAP RWD standard table got deleted during the upgrade. I have a backup of that table & created it using Create Table SQL commands directly at the database level.
I did exp & imp of various tables too however in SE11 the tables created directly in database no matter Z tables or SAP Standard tables does not show up.
My question is that how to register that table in ABAP dictionary?

Table is a part of PSAPCRMUSR & does exists in schema SAPCRM.
Let me give another example:
One of SAP Table STERM_LINK got corrrupted and we did'nt knew about it for almost a month. OSS replied back saying that its a 3rd party table and we are not using any modules that would have updated/read that table. Also that table did'nt had any data.
OSS suggested that either we exp/imp that table from QA to PRD or they can send us a script which is a normal create table....... script and we can drop can corrupted table.
Now in this example if we drop that table and recreate it using script at database level, it will be unknown in dictionary.
How to solve this kind of issue?

RV13B is not defined in the ABAP dictionary

Hi Experts,
Iu2019ve a requirement to create a smartform,and then save it as a pdf and email. I have all of this done except for one part. At present my email address (for testing purposes) is hard coded as the email address. However I want to automatically pick up the email address to which my form is to be sent.
The email address is found in transaction mn22. The pdf will be emailed to RV13B-PARNR (Partner) based on KOMB-LGORT (storage location). Each storage location is unique.
Iu2019ve put in the following code:
SELECT PARNR FROM RV13B INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_vemail[]
WHERE stor_loc EQ KOMB-LGORT.
However Iu2019m getting the error RV13B is not defined in the ABAP dictionary as a table, projection view or database view.
Could anyone give me some help?
Thanks,
Mike.

Mike,
F1 Technical help will not give you the table name in some cases.Instead of the table it will refer to the structure.In such a case you need to get the corresponding table for that field either from SQL trace or searching the possible tables with such field using SE84 which requires a bit of analysis in zeroing on the correct table where you can get the appropriate data related to that field.
SE84>>ABAP Dictionary>>Fields>>table fields.
Give PARNR and get the list of the possible tables containing PARNR as a field.If one is aware of the functionality then it will be easier to zero in on the field and the corresponding table from that list.
SQL trace can help you in tracing out the possible tables used by a transaction code.ie if you do a SQL trace on VA01 you will come to know all the possible tables of VA01.
Thanks,
K.Kiran.
