  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SALV_X_API112 - deleted index out of bounds ?

    The SAP error message SALV_X_API112: Deleted index out of bounds typically occurs when working with the SAP ALV (ABAP List Viewer) framework, particularly when manipulating internal tables or lists. This error indicates that there is an attempt to access an index in an internal table that has been deleted or is out of the valid range.

    Causes:

    1. Invalid Index Access: The code is trying to access an index that has been deleted or does not exist in the internal table.
    2. Looping Issues: If you are looping through an internal table and modifying it (e.g., deleting entries) at the same time, it can lead to index mismatches.
    3. Incorrect Table Size: The internal table may have been resized or cleared, but the code still attempts to access the old index.
    4. Data Manipulation Errors: Errors in data manipulation logic, such as incorrect conditions for deletion or access.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Index Validity: Before accessing an index, ensure that it is within the bounds of the internal table. You can use the DESCRIBE TABLE statement to get the number of entries in the table.

      DATA: lv_index TYPE i.
      DESCRIBE TABLE it_table LINES lv_index.
      IF lv_index > 0 AND index <= lv_index.
          " Safe to access it_table[index]
      ENDIF.
    2. Avoid Modifying the Table While Looping: If you need to delete entries from an internal table while looping through it, consider using a separate table to collect the entries to be deleted and then delete them after the loop.

    3. Use Safe Access Methods: Instead of directly accessing the internal table by index, consider using the READ TABLE statement with the INDEX option, which allows you to check if the index is valid.

      READ TABLE it_table INDEX index INTO lv_value.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
          " Safe to use lv_value
      ENDIF.
    4. Debugging: Use the debugger to step through the code and monitor the state of the internal table and the index being accessed. This can help identify where the index goes out of bounds.

    5. Error Handling: Implement error handling to gracefully manage situations where an invalid index might be accessed. This can include logging the error or providing user feedback.

    Related Information:

    • ALV Documentation: Review the SAP documentation on ALV and internal tables for best practices and examples.
    • ABAP Programming Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with ABAP programming guidelines to avoid common pitfalls related to internal table handling.
    • SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for discussions and solutions related to similar issues encountered by other developers.

    By following these guidelines, you should be able to resolve the SALV_X_API112 error and prevent it from occurring in the future.
