SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CRM_CUMULATED_I - Error messages for quantity/value update

• Message number: 006

• Message text: Entry of an item GUID (or list) requires a return table

What causes this issue?

Incorrect call of function module CRM_CUMULATED_I_READ_OB:
Either an item GUID (IV_ITEM_GUID) or a list of item GUIDs
(IT_ITEM_GUIDS) copied to the function module CRM_CUMULATED_I_READ_OB.
This is not a unique key, and, as a rule, a complete set of data
records is found as the answer. This means you must use the table
ET_CUMULATED_I_WRK as as import parameter when you call up the function
module.
This table, however, was not copied, or the structure
ES_CUMULATED_I_WRK was copied additionally.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_CUMULATED_I006 - Entry of an item GUID (or list) requires a return table ?

  The SAP error message CRM_CUMULATED_I006 typically occurs in the context of SAP CRM (Customer Relationship Management) when there is an issue with the handling of item GUIDs (Globally Unique Identifiers) in a function module or method that expects a return table but does not receive one.
  Cause:
  The error message indicates that a function or method was called that requires a return table (a table structure to hold results), but the input provided does not meet this requirement. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Incorrect Function Call: The function module or method being called may not have been provided with the necessary parameters, particularly the return table.
  Data Structure Issues: The data structure expected by the function may not be correctly defined or initialized.
  Programming Errors: There may be a coding error in the ABAP program where the function is invoked, leading to the absence of the required return table.
  Configuration Issues: There might be configuration settings in the CRM system that are not aligned with the expected data handling.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Function Module/Method Signature: Review the documentation for the function module or method being called to ensure that you are providing all required parameters, especially the return table.
  
  
  Initialize Return Table: Ensure that the return table is properly initialized before calling the function. For example, if you are using an internal table, make sure it is declared and ready to receive data.
  
  
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code where the error occurs. Check the values being passed to the function and ensure that the return table is being populated correctly.
  
  
  Review Code Logic: Look for any logical errors in the code that might prevent the return table from being populated or passed correctly.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes or patches that might address this specific error message.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, thoroughly test the functionality to ensure that the error is resolved and that the system behaves as expected.
