SAP S/4HANA Error 653: Row Order Already Defined
Description
This error indicates an attempt to define or modify the row order of a database table that already has a specific sorting or ordering mechanism in place. It commonly occurs during data definition language (DDL) operations or when an application tries to impose an order where one is implicitly or explicitly set.
Error Message
ERR_SQL_SET_ROW_ORDER
Known Causes
3 known causesExisting Table Ordering
The target database table already has a primary key, unique index, or another mechanism that inherently defines its row order.
Redundant SQL Statement
An SQL statement or application logic is attempting to explicitly set a row order on a table that already possesses one, leading to a conflict.
Conflicting Data Model
The underlying data model or application design includes conflicting definitions for table ordering, causing the system to reject subsequent attempts.
