  Check Action Definition: Review the action definition in the BOPF configuration. Ensure that the result type specified for the action matches the expected structure type.
  Validate Structure Types: Ensure that the structure types used in the action are correctly defined and available in the system. You can check the structure definitions in the ABAP Dictionary (SE11).
  Adjust BOPF Configuration: If there are discrepancies, adjust the BOPF configuration accordingly. This may involve modifying the action's result type or ensuring that the correct structure is being used.
  Test the Action: After making changes, test the action again to see if the error persists. Use transaction codes like /BOBF/CONF to access the BOPF configuration and make necessary adjustments.
  Check for Notes and Patches: Sometimes, SAP releases notes or patches that address specific issues. Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes that might pertain to your version of BOPF.
