  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 69247 - No repetition table can be entered for module ENDLOOP ?

    The SAP error message 69247, "No repetition table can be entered for module ENDLOOP," typically occurs in ABAP programming when there is an issue with the structure of a loop in your code. This error indicates that the ABAP runtime environment is expecting a specific type of loop structure, but it has encountered an unexpected situation.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Loop Structure: The error usually arises when the ENDLOOP statement is used without a corresponding LOOP statement that defines a repetition table. This can happen if:

      • The LOOP statement is missing.
      • The LOOP statement is incorrectly defined.
      • The ENDLOOP statement is placed in a context where it does not match any LOOP statement.
    2. Nested Loops: If you have nested loops, ensure that each LOOP has a corresponding ENDLOOP. If the nesting is not correctly structured, it can lead to this error.

    3. Scope Issues: The ENDLOOP might be placed outside the scope of the LOOP, leading to confusion in the program flow.

    Solution:

    1. Check Loop Structure: Review your code to ensure that every LOOP statement has a corresponding ENDLOOP. The basic structure should look like this:

      LOOP AT itab INTO wa.
        " Your processing logic here
      ENDLOOP.
    2. Correct Nesting: If you are using nested loops, ensure that each loop is properly nested and that each ENDLOOP corresponds to the correct LOOP. For example:

      LOOP AT itab1 INTO wa1.
        LOOP AT itab2 INTO wa2.
          " Your processing logic here
        ENDLOOP.
      ENDLOOP.
    3. Review Context: Make sure that the ENDLOOP statement is not placed in a conditional block or a different context that would make it invalid.

    4. Syntax Check: Use the ABAP editor's syntax check feature (Ctrl + F2) to identify any syntax errors in your code that might be causing this issue.

    Related Information:

    • ABAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP ABAP documentation for detailed information on loop structures and best practices.
    • Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through your code and observe the flow of execution, which can help identify where the loop structure is breaking down.
    • Community Forums: If you continue to face issues, consider reaching out to SAP community forums or consulting with colleagues who have experience in ABAP programming.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error message 69247 and ensure that your loop structures are correctly implemented in your ABAP code.
