• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message G3653 - Structure of table &1 is too wide (&2 Byte, max. possible are &3 Bytes) ?

  The SAP error message G3653 indicates that the structure of a table is too wide, meaning that the total size of the fields in the table exceeds the maximum allowed size. This can occur when you are trying to create or modify a table in the Data Dictionary (SE11) or when you are working with database tables that have a defined maximum size.
  
  Cause:
  
  Field Size Exceeded: The total size of all fields in the table exceeds the maximum limit set by the database. In SAP, the maximum size for a table structure is typically 8,000 bytes for standard database tables.
  Data Types: Using large data types (like STRING, RAW, or large CHAR fields) can quickly increase the size of the table structure.
  Number of Fields: Having too many fields in a table can also contribute to exceeding the maximum size.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Table Structure: Check the fields defined in the table and their data types.
