  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 50124 - Object type CCPTAB: Invalid index ?

    The SAP error message 50124, which states "Object type CCPTAB: Invalid index," typically occurs in the context of SAP's data dictionary or when dealing with internal tables. This error indicates that there is an issue with accessing an index of a table that is either out of bounds or not properly defined.

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Index Access: The most common cause is that the program is trying to access an index of an internal table that does not exist. For example, if the internal table has 5 entries, trying to access the 6th entry will trigger this error.
    2. Empty Internal Table: If the internal table is empty and an attempt is made to access any index, this error will occur.
    3. Incorrect Looping Logic: If there is a loop that incorrectly calculates the index or does not properly check the bounds of the internal table, it can lead to this error.
    4. Data Dictionary Issues: If there are issues with the data dictionary objects or if the object type CCPTAB is not properly defined, it can also lead to this error.

    Solution:

    1. Check Index Values: Review the code to ensure that any index being accessed is within the valid range of the internal table. Use the LINES() function to determine the number of entries in the table before accessing an index.

      DATA: lv_index TYPE i.
      IF lv_index > 0 AND lv_index <= lines(internal_table).
          " Access the internal table
      ELSE.
          " Handle the error
      ENDIF.
    2. Ensure Table is Populated: Before accessing the internal table, ensure that it has been populated with data. You can check if the table is empty using the IS INITIAL statement.

      IF NOT internal_table IS INITIAL.
          " Safe to access the table
      ENDIF.
    3. Debugging: Use the debugger to step through the code and monitor the values of the index and the internal table. This can help identify where the logic may be failing.

    4. Review Loop Logic: If you are using loops to process the internal table, ensure that the loop conditions are correctly defined to prevent out-of-bounds access.

    5. Check Data Dictionary: If the error persists, check the data dictionary for the object type CCPTAB to ensure it is correctly defined and that there are no inconsistencies.

    Related Information:

    • ABAP Documentation: Review the ABAP documentation for handling internal tables and index access.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message, as there may be specific patches or updates that address underlying issues.
    • Community Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or support channels for additional insights or similar experiences from other users.
