  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TPDA825 - Internal error: Generated source is too wide ?

    The SAP error message TPDA825 ("Internal error: Generated source is too wide") typically occurs during the generation of ABAP programs or when the system is trying to compile a program that exceeds certain limits in terms of size or complexity. This can happen for various reasons, including:

    Causes:

    1. Excessive Code Size: The generated source code for a program or function module exceeds the maximum allowed size. This can happen if there are too many lines of code or if the code is too complex.
    2. Large Data Structures: If you are using large internal tables or data structures, it can lead to the generated code being too wide.
    3. Complex Logic: Highly nested loops, extensive use of dynamic programming, or complex data manipulations can contribute to this issue.
    4. Inadequate System Resources: Sometimes, the system may not have enough resources (like memory) to handle the generation of large programs.

    Solutions:

    1. Refactor Code: Break down large programs into smaller, more manageable pieces. This can involve creating additional function modules or methods to encapsulate logic.
    2. Optimize Data Structures: Review and optimize the data structures being used. Ensure that they are not larger than necessary and that you are not using overly complex types.
    3. Reduce Complexity: Simplify the logic in your code. Avoid deep nesting of loops and complex conditional statements where possible.
    4. Check for Unused Code: Remove any unused code or comments that may be contributing to the size of the generated source.
    5. Increase System Resources: If applicable, consider increasing the memory or processing resources available to the SAP system.
    6. Use Code Inspector: Utilize the ABAP Code Inspector to identify potential issues in your code that could lead to excessive size or complexity.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide guidance on best practices for code size and complexity.
    • ABAP Development Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with SAP's ABAP development guidelines, which provide best practices for writing efficient and maintainable code.
    • Performance Tuning: Consider performance tuning techniques that can help reduce the overall size and complexity of your ABAP programs.

    If the problem persists after trying these solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with SAP support or your internal SAP development team for further assistance.
