HI,

Are you insetting the record into a sorted table? and is the record a duplicate ?

Thanks,

Hi!

Try using the APPEND command instead of insert and at the end of the processing give out a SORT command.

You are inserting the new records not into the correct place, that's why you got the error.

Hi all, thanks for your reply,

I am not using the sorting table, dont know what's going on ... ( never came across this before )

So here it the table:

DATA:

lt_crmt_input_field_names TYPE crmt_input_field_names_tab,

ls_crmt_input_field_names TYPE crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'TIMESTAMP_TO'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'TIMESTAMP_FROM'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'rule_name'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'rule_guid'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'timezone_to'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'timezone_from'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'ref_kind'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

ls_crmt_input_field_names-fieldname = 'ref_guid'.

INSERT ls_crmt_input_field_names INTO TABLE lt_crmt_input_field_names.

If you look in Se11, for data type 'crmt_input_field_names_tab' and see the "initialization and access" tab, you will see that this is a sorted table.....Although you did not mention it as sorted table...

where exactly are you getting the short dump ? could you please post that detail from ST22...

Thanks,

it will resolve ur problem

Points awared, but one questin, if I have a sorted table, and instead of using append, i use insert , then it should not be a problem or ?,

With command insert, the system, take care of placing the recoreds in sorted table ? or

HI Shah,

thanks for the points but when you use sorted table u should always use insert statement. Append is only useful in standred table.
