• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FSBP_BAPI104 - No processing because number of DATA and DATAX entries is different ?

  The SAP error message FSBP_BAPI104 indicates that there is a mismatch between the number of entries in the DATA and DATAX tables when using a BAPI (Business Application Programming Interface) for processing data. This error typically occurs when you are trying to create or update records in SAP using a BAPI that requires both data and metadata (indicating which fields are being updated).
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  The number of entries in the DATA table (which contains the actual data to be processed) does not match the number of entries in the DATAX table (which contains indicators for which fields in the DATA table are being updated).
  This mismatch can occur due to:
  
  Missing entries in either the DATA or DATAX table.
  Incorrectly structured input data.
  A programming error in the code that prepares the data for the BAPI call.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Input Data:
  
  Ensure that the DATA and DATAX tables are populated correctly.
  Verify that both tables have the same number of entries. Each entry in DATA should have a corresponding entry in DATAX.
  
  
  
  Review the Structure:
  
  Make sure that the structure of the DATA and DATAX tables matches the expected structure defined in the BAPI documentation.
  Confirm that the fields in DATAX correctly correspond to the fields in DATA.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If you are calling the BAPI from custom code, add debugging statements to log the contents of DATA and DATAX before the BAPI call.
  Check for any logic that might inadvertently alter the number of entries in either table.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the BAPI documentation to understand the expected input parameters and their formats.
  Ensure that you are following the guidelines for the specific BAPI you are using.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making corrections, test the BAPI call with a small set of data to ensure that it processes correctly without errors.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAPI Documentation: Always refer to the official SAP documentation for the specific BAPI you are using to understand its parameters and requirements.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to the BAPI you are using.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE37 to view the BAPI and its parameters, or SE80 to explore the related function modules and structures.
  
  By ensuring that the DATA and DATAX entries are aligned, you should be able to resolve the FSBP_BAPI104 error and successfully process your BAPI call.
