• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SMT082 - Parameter "e_ok" must be of type "wuf_boolean" ?

  The SAP error message SMT082, which states that the parameter "e_ok" must be of type "wuf_boolean," typically indicates a type mismatch in the parameters being passed to a function or method in the SAP system. This error is often encountered in the context of SAP Business Workflow or when dealing with function modules that expect specific data types.
  Cause:
  
  Type Mismatch: The parameter e_ok is expected to be of type wuf_boolean, which is a specific boolean type in SAP. If the parameter is being passed as a different type (e.g., a string, integer, or any other type), this error will occur.
  Incorrect Function Call: The function or method being called may not be receiving the correct parameters, either due to incorrect coding or misconfiguration.
  Data Conversion Issues: If there is an attempt to convert data types and it fails, this can lead to the error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Parameter Type: Ensure that the parameter e_ok is defined as wuf_boolean in your code. If you are passing a variable, make sure that it is explicitly declared as wuf_boolean.
  Example:
  DATA: lv_ok TYPE wuf_boolean.
  
  
  Review Function Module/Method Signature: Look at the documentation or the definition of the function module or method you are calling to ensure you are passing the correct types for all parameters.
  
  
  Debugging: Use the debugger to step through the code and check the values and types of the parameters being passed. This can help identify where the type mismatch is occurring.
  
  
  Data Type Conversion: If you need to convert a value to wuf_boolean, ensure you are doing it correctly. For example, you might need to convert a string representation of a boolean to the appropriate type.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are using a standard SAP function module, refer to the SAP documentation for that module to understand the expected parameter types.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Data Types: Familiarize yourself with SAP data types, especially wuf_boolean, to understand how to work with boolean values in ABAP.
  Function Module Documentation: Always refer to the SAP Help Portal or the function module documentation for detailed information on parameter types and expected values.
  SAP Community: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to the SAP Community or forums where other developers may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By ensuring that the parameter types match the expected definitions, you should be able to resolve the SMT082 error.
