First, I assume you are converting your view from SQL Server, not from SQL.
SQL Server is RDBMS, while SQL is a language being used by multiple RDBMSs including PostgreSQL.
Second, there is no "standard" dbo ("database owner") role in Postgres.
Before converting from one RDBMS to another you need to do some basic (at least) documentation reading on "target"
RDBMS(in this case - PostgreSQL).
Otherwise, you will stumble on every step.
