How To Fix SY481 - PROVIDE check deactivated

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SY - ABAP/4 system messages

• Message number: 481

• Message text: PROVIDE check deactivated

What causes this issue?

The PROVIDE statement can only be used if the relevant internal table
is sorted by interval fields. Otherwise the system processes any table
rows.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

In the Debugger, you can activate a check to find such program errors.
It checks before every PROVIDE statement, whether the table is actually
sorted. If this is not the case, a runtime error occurs.
For a large table, this check takes a long time and has a negative
effect on the program runtime.
