• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FRMLINF602 - Specify no more than two internal tables for field catalog creation ?

  The SAP error message FRMLINF602 indicates that there is an issue with the field catalog creation in a report or a form where more than two internal tables have been specified. This error typically arises in the context of using the SAP Smart Forms or SAPscript, where a field catalog is used to define the structure of the data that will be displayed.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system allows only a maximum of two internal tables to be specified for the creation of a field catalog. If your code or configuration attempts to use more than two internal tables, the system will trigger this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that you are only using up to two internal tables when creating the field catalog. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Review Your Code: Check the code where the field catalog is being created. Look for the part where internal tables are defined and ensure that you are only using two.
  
  
  Consolidate Data: If you have more than two internal tables, consider consolidating the data into fewer tables. You might need to join or merge the data from multiple tables into one or two tables.
  
  
  Modify Field Catalog Logic: If your logic requires more than two tables, you may need to rethink how you are structuring your data. You could create a new internal table that combines the necessary fields from the multiple tables you are trying to use.
  
  
  Check Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for more information on field catalog creation and the limitations associated with it.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the report or form to ensure that the error is resolved and that the output is as expected.
