How To Fix KX911 - No field name entered -> Choose a valid name

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KX - EC-EIS/EC-BP: Data basis, data collection

• Message number: 911

• Message text: No field name entered -> Choose a valid name

What causes this issue?

A field in the sender structure from an ABAP query does not have a
unique name. Blank field names are not allowed.
In order to be able to transfer data from the ABAP query to SAP-EIS,
the system requires the unique assignment of all the fields in the
sender structure (-> internal table "%LDESC", field "FNAME") to the
fields in the receiver structure (SAP-EIS).

System Response

Since the field names in the receiver structure in SAP-EIS are shorter
than those in the sender structure, a shorter field name must be
chosen.
This means that occasionally blank field names may occur if there is
incorrect data in field "%LDESC-FNAME" (internal table %LDESC).
The system requires you to create a unique field name for the field in
the sender structure (-> SAP-EIS table T242S, T241S, (T242D), field
"SFELD").

How to fix this error?

Make sure that you enter a unique name which, if possible, also
indicates the contents, for the field in the sender structure. ist.
