Hi,

MOstly the error 26 raises, when there is mismatching of the fields in segment level.

Check out ones, in passing the data to the segments.

hi naveen ,

can u be clear about 'mismatching of fields' ?

Hi,

In ur logic u may be trying to populate the IDOC type with data, by validating with segment names followed by Fields.

Check the statements where u will be assigning the values to the fields in Segmenst.

Hi,

While passing the idoc data, you are not passing the mandatory segment and passing the child segment. Try to add the data for the mandatory segment.

Check and find the mandatory segments on the IDoc through WE30 .And check if all this segments are populated in the IDoc which failed ( WE02).

Soumya.
