• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRD_MDA102 - Technical error: Assignment of field symbol failed ?

  The SAP error message CRD_MDA102 with the description "Technical error: Assignment of field symbol failed" typically indicates an issue related to field symbols in ABAP programming. Field symbols are placeholders that can point to data objects at runtime, and this error suggests that there was a failure in assigning a value to a field symbol.
  Causes:
  
  Invalid Data Reference: The field symbol may be trying to reference a data object that does not exist or is not accessible in the current context.
  Type Mismatch: The data type of the field symbol may not match the data type of the object it is trying to reference.
  Scope Issues: The field symbol might be out of scope or not properly defined in the program.
  Memory Issues: There could be memory allocation issues or corruption in the data being referenced.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Field Symbol Declaration: Ensure that the field symbol is declared correctly and is pointing to a valid data object.
  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_data> TYPE ANY.
  
  
  Validate Data Types: Make sure that the data type of the field symbol matches the data type of the object it is trying to reference. Use the ASSIGN statement carefully.
  ASSIGN <source> TO <fs_data>.
  
  
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and check the values and types of the variables involved. This can help identify where the assignment is failing.
  
  
  Check for Null References: Ensure that the source data object is not null or uninitialized before the assignment.
  
  
  Review Program Logic: Look for any logical errors in the program that might lead to the field symbol being assigned incorrectly.
  
  
  Error Handling: Implement error handling to catch and manage exceptions that may arise during the assignment process.
