Syntax error in SDCC, table inconsistency between ABAP Dictionary and the database, transport error 8 during the generation of ABAP Dictionary. When you call Transaction SDCC, a termination occurs due to a putative syntax error because a table is not known or active. When you check this with the ABAP dictionary (SE11), you notice, that the table is active or inactive, however it is not possible to activate it. The activation might terminate with the error message 'Inconsistency between ABAP Dictionary and database'. A check of the affected object also delivers this error.


Proceed as follows:

Log on as user DDIC
Call Transaction SE14
Enter the affected table name and
select EDIT
In the following screen, choose Table -> Reconstruct
Confirm the execution
Call Transaction SE11
Enter the affected table name
Display
Activate
If - after you chose EDIT -, the error message occurs that the table only exists on the database, you need to activate the source and the runtime object.

Call Transaction SE37:
-> Function module 'DD_TABL_ACTM' -> Single test
Under import parameter MODE, enter the number 12 and under TABNAME the corresponding table name
-> Execute (F8) -> Export parameter ACT_RESULT must be 0
Call Transaction SE14 again as described above.
-> Extras -> Database object -> Check,
as well as
-> Extras -> Runtime object -> Check
inconsistencies should no longer be contained.
If you cannot switch to the EDIT mode in Transaction SE14, which means no modifications are allowed in the customer system, then proceed as follows:

Call function module 'DD_TABL_ACTM' as described above.
Then call Transaction SE14 again and verify that the table has been activated.
As a result, this ensures that the SDCC can be executed.
The menu options in Transaction SE14 are
-> Extras -> Database object -> Check,
as well as
-> Extras -> Runtime object -> Check
inconsistencies should no longer be contained.
If this is not the case, open a CSN message under the BC-DWB-DIC-ED component.
