• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/3FL_NEWS_CLASS055 - The second letter of table declarations must be T ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/3FL_NEWS_CLASS055 indicates that there is an issue with the naming convention of a table declaration in your ABAP code. Specifically, the error states that the second letter of the table name must be 'T'. This is a requirement in SAP for naming database tables, as it helps to maintain consistency and avoid conflicts with other objects.
  Cause:

In SAP, database tables should have names that start with a letter followed by a letter 'T' as the second character.

  Identify the Table Declaration: Locate the part of your ABAP code where the table is declared.
  
  
  Rename the Table: Change the name of the table so that the second character is 'T'. For example, if your table is named ZAB_TABLE, you could rename it to ZTA_TABLE.
  
  
  Adjust References: Ensure that all references to the old table name in your code are updated to the new name.
  
  
  Activate the Changes: After making the changes, activate the ABAP program or object to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  Test the Code: Run the program to verify that the error has been resolved and that the program functions as expected.
