SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CPOC2 - PP-PI-PMA: PI Sheet Messages, SCM Add-On

• Message number: 143

• Message text: Constant &1 cannot be transferred to import parameter &2

What causes this issue?

A dynamic function call is defined in the process instruction. The
reference type of import parameter &v2& is a table type. Constant &v1&
was transferred to this import parameter. However, transferring
constants is not allowed for table types.

System Response

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

How to fix this error?

Procedure for System Administrators

Use flat structures with only one component, data elements, or
elementary types as a reference type for the import parameter.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CPOC2143 - Constant &1 cannot be transferred to import parameter &2 ?

  The SAP error message CPOC2143 indicates that there is an issue with the transfer of a constant value to an import parameter in a function module or method. This error typically arises when the data type of the constant does not match the expected data type of the import parameter.
  Cause:
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The constant being passed does not match the expected data type of the import parameter. For example, if the import parameter expects a numeric value and a string constant is being passed, this error will occur.
  Length Issues: The length of the constant may exceed the maximum length defined for the import parameter.
  Incorrect Constant Definition: The constant may not be defined correctly in the program or may not be accessible in the context where it is being used.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Types: Verify the data type of the import parameter in the function module or method definition. Ensure that the constant being passed matches this data type.
  Adjust Constant Definition: If the constant is defined incorrectly, redefine it to match the expected data type and length.
  Use Type Casting: If necessary, use type casting to convert the constant to the appropriate data type before passing it to the import parameter.
  Review Function Module/Method Documentation: Check the documentation for the function module or method to understand the expected parameters and their types.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, use the debugger to trace the values being passed and identify where the mismatch occurs.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Function Module/Method Documentation: Always refer to the SAP documentation for the specific function module or method to understand the expected parameters.
  Data Dictionary: Use transaction SE11 to check the data types and lengths of the constants and parameters involved.
  ABAP Development Guidelines: Follow best practices for defining constants and parameters in ABAP to avoid such issues.
  
  By addressing the data type and length issues, you should be able to resolve the CPOC2143 error and successfully transfer the constant to the import parameter.
