go_sys_exception not defined

[Former Member]

I have the following code in my abap program

***********************************

go_sys_exception TYPE REF TO cx_ai_system_fault.

TRY.

CREATE OBJECT employee_data.

call method employee_data->UPLOAD_ACTION_ITEM exporting

OUTPUT = output.

commit work.

CATCH cx_ai_system_fault INTO go_sys_exception.

it_error_tab-message = go_sys_exception-errortext.

it_error_tab-code = go_sys_exception-code.

• log this error into some error log table for reference and if required raise alerts.

ENDTRY.

********************************************

when i compile it gives me an error message saying go_sys_exception is not defined.

any idea why iam getting this error

You have not specified Data infront of delcaration or give proper declaration syntax for go_sys_exception TYPE REF TO cx_ai_system_fault.
