No need in the same program the export statement should be mentioned...It can be mentioned else where..Just like u can append the data to application server and frrom another program we can download.

The read statement mentioned by you is not realted to the import tab...could you paste some more code..

sas

And what dump analysis are you getting??

the following dump I am getting

An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.

The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_IMPORT_MISMATCH_ERROR', was

not caught and

therefore caused a runtime error.

The reason for the exception is:

When attempting to import data, the

structure of the complex object "ITAB_BKPF" was not compatible with the

target object. The error occurred with component no. 71.

IMPORT ITAB_BKPF FROM DATABASE RFDT(BB) ID XYZ.

ITAB_BKPF in the export structure and import structure should be of same declaration

can u try using in the lines of below piece of code

EXPORT tb_cond FROM tb_cond

TO DATABASE indx(st) ID wf_memid.

Import TB_COND to TB_COND from DATABASE indx(st) ID wf_memid.

Cheers

Hi,

From the description youe provided the problem lies in the itab.

The explanation says "The reason for the exception is:

When attempting to import data, the

structure of the complex object "ITAB_BKPF" was not compatible with the

target object. " means that there is a mismatch between the target table and actual table.

Figuring out the difference will solve your problem

Hope it helps u.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

Its not mandatory to use Export statement like in function modules. But from dump analysis it is very clearly mentioned that there is some mismatch in the ITAB_BKPF table (Source table) with the target table. It has nothing to do with the READ statement as it is dumping at the import statement itself.

So check your import statement for source and target tables structures if both are same.
