324084 - M2608: Table x not in the dictionary

Symptom

When you create or change an information structure, a termination occurs with error M2608 "Table X not in Dictionary (contact your systems administrator)" in the selection of the field catalogs.

Other Terms

MC21, MC22, M2608

Reason and Prerequisites

There is at least a field catalog with one or several fields for which table X is its source table and/or reference table.

Solution

As a field catalog TFCF-FCATL in the data browser (Transaction: SE16) for table TFCF with the following selection, you can find the corresponding field catalog(s) in which table X is used as a source table or reference table:
a) reference table TFCF-QUTAB = 'x'
b) source table TFCF-SQTAB = 'x'
The fields in the affected field catalogs are either

• required and table X is missing for an unknown reason (upgrade, delete, transport error and so on):

• Transfer table X from another system or newly create table X, for example, via the maintenance of the affected field catalogs.

or

• not (no longer) required:

• Change or delete the affected field catalogs via 'Change field catalog' (Transaction: MC19) in the affected field catalogs or delete the field catalog completely.

If it is a question of a table in the SAP name range, create a message in the Online Service System.

If it is a question of table PFAM or PHIER, you can  correct or delete the entries in field catalog PADD. Provided no further fields exist without using tables PFAM and PHIER, you can delete field catalog PADD completely.
