• Message number: 087

• Message text: Reference to source data table is no longer bound

What causes this issue?

There is a programming error in the application calling the ALV table
services (ATS).
The reference to the source data which the caller has provided earlier
is not bound any more.
A possible cause is that the reference pointed to a variable with
limited scope (for example a table locally declared in a method) and the
ABAP control flow has in the mean time left this scope.

of the application that issued this error.
