The data in excel should contain numbers only - yours has letters too.

I input the Excel file with the figures only and applied the model:
GDP = β1 + β2 FDI + β3 ODA + u
The same error that the "GDP is not defined" appeared.
Below is the data in Excel without the characters but only the figures.
I am using a Demo version of Eviews.
Should I input another function without the coefficients like above? Thks.

The screenshot of the Excel file shows that there are letters in the cells (the word "billion").
The screenshot of EViews workfile confirms that out of the 4 series that were imported, only one contains numbers (series01).
The screenshot of EViews workfile also confirms that there are no series called "GDP" in your workfile.
