  The SAP error message BANK_CHDOC_TOOL102 typically indicates an issue related to change documents in the banking module of SAP. This error occurs when a work area of a table is incorrectly passed as a table instead of a single record. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Data Handling: The error usually arises when a program or function module is expecting a single record (work area) but receives a table (internal table) instead. This can happen due to programming errors or incorrect data manipulation.
  Custom Code Issues: If there are custom developments or enhancements in the banking module, they might not be handling the data correctly, leading to this error.
  Configuration Issues: Sometimes, incorrect configuration settings in the banking module can lead to unexpected behavior.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Code: Review the ABAP code where the error occurs. Ensure that when passing data to the function or method, you are passing a single record (work area) instead of an internal table.
  
  
  Use READ TABLE to fetch a single record from the internal table if necessary.
  
  
  Example:
  DATA: lt_table TYPE TABLE OF your_table_type,
        ls_work_area TYPE your_table_type.
  
  " Assuming lt_table is filled with data
  READ TABLE lt_table INTO ls_work_area INDEX 1. " Get the first record
  IF sy-subrc = 0.
    " Now pass ls_work_area to the function
  ENDIF.
  
  
  
  
  Debugging: Use the debugger to trace the execution of the program and identify where the incorrect data type is being passed. This will help you pinpoint the exact location of the issue.
  
  
  Check Function Module/Method Signature: Verify the signature of the function module or method being called. Ensure that the parameters match the expected data types.
  
  
  Review Custom Enhancements: If there are any custom enhancements or modifications in the banking area, review them to ensure they are not causing the issue.
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error. Sometimes, SAP releases patches or notes that provide solutions for known issues.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for the banking module to understand the expected data structures and how change documents are handled.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums to see if other users have encountered similar issues and what solutions they found.
