• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RPM_LCC112 - Error when assigning the field symbol for the buffer table ?

  The SAP error message RPM_LCC112 typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming, particularly when dealing with field symbols and buffer tables. This error indicates that there is an issue with the assignment of a field symbol to a buffer table, which can arise from various reasons.
  Cause
  
  Incorrect Data Type: The field symbol may be assigned to a buffer table that has a different data type than expected. This mismatch can lead to the error.
  Buffer Table Not Initialized: If the buffer table is not properly initialized or populated before the assignment, the field symbol cannot reference it correctly.
  Scope Issues: The field symbol may be out of scope or not defined correctly in the program, leading to assignment failures.
  Incorrect Syntax: There may be a syntax error in the code where the field symbol is being assigned to the buffer table.
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Data Types: Ensure that the data type of the field symbol matches the data type of the buffer table. Use the ASSIGN statement correctly to ensure compatibility.
  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_buffer> TYPE ANY.
  DATA: lt_buffer TYPE TABLE OF your_table_type.
  
  ASSIGN lt_buffer TO <fs_buffer>.
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      " Handle error
  ENDIF.
  
  
  Initialize Buffer Table: Make sure that the buffer table is initialized and populated with data before you attempt to assign it to the field symbol.
  DATA: lt_buffer TYPE TABLE OF your_table_type.
  " Populate lt_buffer with data
  
  
  Check Scope: Ensure that the field symbol is declared in the correct scope and is accessible at the point of assignment.
  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_buffer> TYPE your_table_type.
  
  
  Review Syntax: Double-check the syntax of your assignment statement. Ensure that you are using the correct ABAP syntax for assigning field symbols.
  ASSIGN lt_buffer TO <fs_buffer>.
  
  
  Debugging: Use debugging tools to step through the code and check the values and types of the variables involved in the assignment. This can help identify where the issue lies.
