• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACCCHECK008 - Display fields and frame characters with separate WRITE; &1 &2 &3 &4 ?

  The SAP error message ACCCHECK008 typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming, particularly when there are issues related to the display of fields and frame characters in a report or screen. This error indicates that there is a problem with how the output is being formatted, specifically that display fields and frame characters are being written together in a single WRITE statement.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the use of the WRITE statement in ABAP where both display fields (like variables or data fields) and frame characters (like borders or lines) are being output together. In ABAP, you cannot mix display fields and frame characters in a single WRITE statement. This is a restriction in the language to ensure proper formatting and display of output.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to separate the WRITE statements for display fields and frame characters. Here’s how you can do it:
  
  
  Separate WRITE Statements: Ensure that you have separate WRITE statements for display fields and frame characters. For example:
  WRITE: / 'Frame Character', 'Display Field'.
  WRITE: / 'Another Frame Character'.
  Instead of combining them, write them in separate lines.
  
  
  Use Formatting Options: If you need to format the output, consider using formatting options or using the FORMAT statement to control how the output is displayed.
  
  
  Check for Loops: If you are using loops to display multiple records, ensure that each iteration of the loop handles the display fields and frame characters separately.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP ABAP documentation for more details on the WRITE statement and its usage.
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through your code and identify where the error is occurring. This can help you pinpoint the exact line causing the issue.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for additional insights and solutions from other developers who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the ACCCHECK008 error and ensure that your ABAP program runs without issues related to output formatting.
