Hi,

Ur selecting all feilds fron mara into ITAB but in Itab there only few filds declared.

So use

data itab like mara occurs 0 with header line.

Or

SELECT MATNR MTART MATKL UOM LAEDA FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE MATNR = '521196'.

you are selecting all the columns (using SELECT *) but your itab has only five fields...this is the reason for this error msg...

either declare your table as

data itab type table of mara.

OR

modify your select statement to select only the fields that are a part of the internal table

SELECT MATNR MTART MATKL MEINS LAEDA FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE MATNR = '521196'.

END OF TY_ITAB.

DATA: ITAB TYPE TABLE  OF TY_ITAB,
          WA_ITAB TYPE TY_ITAB.

Hi,

You have created an internal table with 5 fields and you are trying to fill that table with all the fields from the table MARA.

SO you either modify the SELECT stmt by changing * to 5 fields or change the structure of the internal table to mara.

SELECT MATNR MTART MATKL MEINS LAEDA LAEDA,

FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE MATNR = '521196'

or

data : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0.

include structure mara.

data end of itab.

Thanks and Regards.

Hi,

Chnage the select statement as below :

DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,
MTART LIKE MARA-MTART,
MATKL LIKE MARA-MATKL,
UOM LIKE MARA-MEINS,
LAEDA LIKE MARA-LAEDA,
END OF ITAB.


DATA: WA_ITAB LIKE LINE OF ITAB.


SELECT * FROM MARA INTO corresponding fields of TABLE ITAB WHERE MATNR = '521196'.

LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB.
WRITE : WA_ITAB-MATKL.
ENDLOOP.
