Syntax Error

[Former Member]

When using LSMW I go to convert and I get this error. Can anyone tell me how to fix it?

Syntax error occurred in program /1CADMC/SAP_LSMW_CONV_00000022

For typw "C" a maximum length specification of 65535 is allowed

Thanks for your help

Hi Wayne,

I believe you are using the type C for a variable which is not able to handling the data.

so instead you can use the type STRING.

Did you specify a field which has a length of more than 65535 when creating your input structure?

Hi Wayne,

Problem is in your mapping (step 5 of LSMW).

I guess you are assigning a larger value to a char type variable.

When you execute the convert step or do a syntax check (in the step5 of LSMW) it will take you to ABAP editor. Do a syntax check again and it will point the error location.

If this does not help, please elaborate your requirement.

Hi Wayne, did you ever manage to get a solution to this? I am having a similar issue with a LSMW and get the error "Syntax error in program "/1CADMC/SAP_LSMW_CONV_00000008" "The field "WA_ERRCAT" is unknown, but there is a field with the similar name "PT_ERRCAT". "

I have checked all my field sizes and even gone into debug mode, gone to the source code and done a syntax check, which came back with no sytax errors. Any help/guidance would be appreciated.

Hi,

I am getting a similar error through SAP Best Practises LSMW which says:--

The current ABAP program "/SAPDMC/SAPLLSMW_OBJ_070" had to be terminated

because it has

come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.

The following syntax error occurred in program "/1CADMC/SAP_LSMW_CONV_00000022

" in include "/1CADMC/SAP_LSMW_CONV_00000022 " in

line 247:

"The data object "INP_STRUCT_01" does not have a component called "AMT_"

"TC"."

" "

" "

Can you please advice how did you manage to solve this?

Either create a component AMT_TC in INP_STRUCT_01 or remove that column from your input file.
