Hi Suharsan,

Short dump is created where there is error in while program processing.

It can occur due to any reason. Like data mistmatch, inccorrect syntax, or incoreect data conversion and so on.

You can use MESSAGE X001(00) with 'Testing Short Dump'. in a program and see what is the output.

Or you can go to ST22 and pull up any short dump and see the details.

Cheers

Hi,

Short dumps are nothing but the runtime errors...

For ex:

a = 10, b = 0.

c = a/b...It is syntactically correct but gives short dump when executed since we can't divide by zero.

Hi,

Short dumps are created when there is an error in the program, overflow of mathematical computations, the memory required to run the report is too big for the server, etc. You can also check your error even though it gave you a short dump. Just press debugging when the dump screen appears.

Hope this helps...

P.S. Please award points for useful answers.

hi

short dumps will occur due error in your transaction.

This will help you out in finding the exact cause of the error.

have a look at the transaction st22.
