  • 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.
