Description

This error indicates that SAP S/4HANA could not locate a specific data statistics table required for an operation, or the table found is not compatible with the current system configuration. It typically occurs during data processing, reporting, or system updates when the system attempts to access metadata about data structures.

Error Message

ERR_DATA_STAT_TABLE_NOT_FOUND: Specified table not found or not supported

🔍

Known Causes

4 known causes

⚠️

Missing Data Statistics Table

The required data statistics table has been accidentally deleted, never created, or is missing from the database.

⚠️

Incorrect Table Reference

The application or process is trying to access a table using an incorrect name, schema, or path.

⚠️

Corrupted or Inaccessible Table

The table exists but is corrupted, locked, or permissions prevent the SAP S/4HANA system from accessing it.

⚠️

System Configuration Mismatch

The system configuration expects a different table structure or version, making the existing table unsupported.

Solutions

4 solutions available

1. Verify Table Existence and Name in HANA Database easy

Confirms the target table exists and the name is spelled correctly in the HANA database.

1

Connect to your SAP HANA database using a suitable tool like SAP HANA Studio, DBVISUAL, or the `hdbsql` command-line client.

2

Execute a SQL query to check if the table specified in the error message actually exists. Replace `YOUR_TABLE_NAME` with the actual table name from the error message.

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "SYS"."TABLES" WHERE "TABLE_NAME" = 'YOUR_TABLE_NAME';

3

If the count is 0, the table does not exist. Double-check the table name for typos. If the table name is correct and still not found, it might indicate a missing component or a corrupted system. Proceed to other solutions.

4

If the count is greater than 0, the table exists. Ensure the case sensitivity of the table name matches exactly what the SAP S/4HANA application is expecting. HANA is case-sensitive for object names unless quoted.

2. Recreate or Update Data Dictionary and Statistics medium

Rebuilds the data dictionary and statistics for the affected table, which is often corrupted or missing.

1

Identify the specific table causing the error. This information is usually present in the detailed error logs or trace files associated with the 1091 error.

2

Access SAP Solution Manager or the relevant transaction codes for database administration within SAP S/4HANA (e.g., `ST05` for performance trace, `DB02` for database overview). Look for tools to manage table statistics.

3

Use the SAP transaction `DBSTATC` (Database Statistics Collector) or a similar tool to rebuild the statistics for the identified table. This process analyzes the table's data and creates internal statistics that the database uses for query optimization.

4

Alternatively, if the table is a standard SAP table and is suspected to be missing, consider using SAP's database tools or standard repair/reorganization procedures. This might involve transactions like `SE11` (ABAP Dictionary) to check table definition and potentially re-activate or repair it. **Caution:** Modifying standard SAP tables directly can have severe consequences. Always consult SAP Notes or support before proceeding with such actions.

5

After rebuilding statistics, restart the SAP S/4HANA application services or relevant components to ensure the changes are recognized.

3. Check SAP Notes for Known Issues and Corrections medium

Addresses known bugs or configuration issues related to table statistics in SAP S/4HANA by applying SAP Notes.

1

Go to the SAP Support Portal (support.sap.com).

2

Search for SAP Notes using keywords like 'S/4HANA', 'Error 1091', 'ERR_DATA_STAT_TABLE_NOT_FOUND', and the specific table name if known. Also, include your SAP S/4HANA version and HANA database version in your search.

3

Review the search results for relevant SAP Notes that describe the error and provide a solution. These solutions often involve applying specific correction instructions (program fixes) or configuration changes.

4

If a relevant SAP Note is found, follow the instructions precisely to implement the correction. This usually involves applying the note through transaction `SNOTE` in your SAP S/4HANA system.

5

After applying the SAP Note, restart the relevant SAP S/4HANA services or perform a system restart to ensure the changes take effect.

4. Investigate HANA System Corruption or Configuration advanced

Performs a deeper check of the HANA database for underlying issues that might cause table statistics to be unavailable.

1

Examine the SAP HANA system logs (`indexserver.trc`, `nameserver.trc`, etc.) for any errors or warnings related to table management, data dictionary, or statistics generation occurring around the time of the error.

2

Connect to the HANA database and check the health of the system catalog views. For example, query `M_SYSTEM_REVISION_STATUS` and `M_DATABASES` to ensure the HANA instance is running optimally.

SELECT * FROM M_SYSTEM_REVISION_STATUS;

3

Perform a consistency check on the HANA database. This might involve using HANA administration tools or specific SQL commands provided by SAP. Consult SAP Notes for the recommended consistency check procedures for your specific HANA version.

4

If the issue persists and seems related to a core HANA component or data corruption, consider engaging SAP Support. They may recommend specific HANA repair tools or a more in-depth analysis.

5

Ensure that the HANA database has sufficient disk space and that there are no I/O performance issues that could interfere with database operations.
