How To Fix ACM_SYNTAX035 - Field &1 of entity &2 has unsupported type: &3

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: ACM_SYNTAX - ACM: DCL Syntax Error Messages

• Message number: 035

• Message text: Field &1 of entity &2 has unsupported type: &3

What causes this issue?

Fields of type &V3& cannot be protected by a DCL:
Fields of some type (e.g. STRING or RAWSTRING) cannot be used in WHERE
or ON clauses in the database, so the approach to merge authorization
relevant selections into the business selections by the OpenSQL runtime
cannot be applied.
Fields of some type (e.g. FLTP, DFxx_SCL) are not supported by the
authorization runtime due to either risk of usage (e.g. unexpected
behavior of floating point fields in comparisons) or obsolescence
(decimal floating point with scale field).

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
