Field Length Error while using READ_TEXT FM

anurag_singh16 — Sat, 04 Aug 2018 05:06:19 GMT

Hi All,

I am getting an exception CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_TYPE in my custom program when I call FM READ_TEXT to read the note from an Invoice Document.

I have declared variables with the same data types but dump is saying that the length is different. How?

Below is the code used by me:

DATA:
	gv_key      TYPE tdobname, 
	gv_gjahr(4) TYPE c,
	wa_line     TYPE tline,  
	it_line     TYPE TABLE OF tline.

    gv_gjahr = <fs_blck>-gjahr.
    gv_belnr = <fs_blck>-belnr.
    CONCATENATE gv_belnr gv_gjahr INTO gv_key.

    CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
      EXPORTING
*       CLIENT                  = SY-MANDT
        id                      = '0001'
        language                = 'E'
        name                    = gv_key
        object                  = 'RBKP'
*       ARCHIVE_HANDLE          = 0
*       LOCAL_CAT               = ' '
*       IMPORTING
*       HEADER                  =
*       OLD_LINE_COUNTER        =
      TABLES
        lines                   = it_line
      EXCEPTIONS
        id                      = 1
        language                = 2
        name                    = 3
        not_found               = 4
        object                  = 5
        reference_check         = 6
        wrong_access_to_archive = 7
        OTHERS                  = 8.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* Implement suitable error handling here
    ENDIF.

    IF it_line IS NOT INITIAL.
      LOOP AT it_line INTO wa_line.
        CONCATENATE <fs_blck>-note wa_line-tdline INTO <fs_blck>-note.
        CLEAR: wa_line-tdline.
      ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.

       lw_lines  TYPE tline,
       lv_id     TYPE tdid,     "Text ID
       lv_object TYPE tdobject
       lv_name   TYPE tdobname. "Name
...
  CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
    EXPORTING
      client                  = sy-mandt
      id                      = lv_id
      language                = sy-langu
      name                    = lv_name
      object                  = lv_object
    TABLES
      lines                   = lt_lines[]
...
