• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GX093 - Wrong table type ?

  The SAP error message GX093 "Wrong table type" typically occurs when there is a mismatch in the expected table type in a program or function module. This error can arise in various scenarios, such as when working with internal tables, database tables, or when passing parameters to function modules.
  Causes:
  
  Mismatched Table Types: The most common cause is that the program is trying to use an internal table of one type where another type is expected. For example, passing a standard table where a sorted table is expected.
  Incorrect Data Declaration: If the internal table is declared incorrectly or does not match the expected structure, this error can occur.
  Function Module Parameter Mismatch: When calling a function module, if the parameters do not match the expected types (e.g., passing a non-table type where a table type is expected), this error can be triggered.
  Data Dictionary Changes: Changes in the data dictionary (like changes in table definitions) that are not reflected in the program can also lead to this error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Table Declarations: Review the declarations of the internal tables in your ABAP code. Ensure that the types of the tables match the expected types in the context where they are used.
  Review Function Module Signatures: If the error occurs when calling a function module, check the function module's interface in SE37 or SE80. Ensure that the parameters you are passing match the expected types.
  Use Correct Table Types: If a specific table type is required (e.g., sorted, hashed), ensure that you are using the correct type in your declarations.
  Debugging: Use the debugger to step through the code and identify where the mismatch occurs. This can help pinpoint the exact location of the error.
  Check for Data Dictionary Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data dictionary, ensure that your program is updated accordingly. You may need to regenerate the program or clear the buffer.
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Data Types: Familiarize yourself with the different types of internal tables in ABAP (standard, sorted, hashed) and their use cases.
  Function Module Documentation: Always refer to the documentation of function modules to understand the expected input and output parameters.
