The SAP error message "37067 Variable loop requires whole line. Operation not performed" typically occurs in the context of SAP ABAP programming, particularly when dealing with variable loops in reports or forms. This error indicates that the system expects a complete line of data for processing, but it has encountered an incomplete or improperly formatted line.
Cause:
- Incomplete Data: The data being processed may not be complete or may be missing required fields.
- Incorrect Loop Structure: The loop structure in the ABAP code may not be correctly defined, leading to the system not being able to process the entire line of data.
- Formatting Issues: There may be issues with how the data is formatted, such as missing delimiters or incorrect data types.
- Variable Declaration: The variables used in the loop may not be declared properly or may not match the expected data structure.
Solution:
- Check Data Completeness: Ensure that the data being processed is complete and contains all required fields. Validate the input data before processing.
- Review Loop Structure: Examine the ABAP code to ensure that the loop is correctly defined. Make sure that the loop iterates over the correct data structure and that all necessary fields are included.
- Correct Formatting: Ensure that the data is formatted correctly. Check for any missing delimiters or incorrect data types that could cause the loop to fail.
- Variable Declaration: Verify that all variables used in the loop are declared properly and match the expected data structure. Ensure that the data types are compatible.
- Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and identify where the error occurs. This can help pinpoint the exact line or condition causing the issue.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
