  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TT244 - Remote only possble for REF, TCD, FUN, SETTAB, CHETAB, SETVAR TABLE ?

    The SAP error message TT244 indicates that a certain operation is only possible for specific types of tables in the context of remote function calls (RFC). The message suggests that the operation you are trying to perform is not supported for the type of table you are using.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when you attempt to use a table type that is not compatible with remote function calls. The message specifies that only the following table types are allowed for remote operations:

    • REF (Reference Table)
    • TCD (Table Control Data)
    • FUN (Function Table)
    • SETTAB (Set Table)
    • CHETAB (Change Table)
    • SETVAR (Set Variable Table)

    If you are trying to pass a different type of table (e.g., a standard internal table or a different custom table type), you will encounter this error.

    Solution:

    To resolve the TT244 error, you should ensure that you are using one of the allowed table types for your remote function call. Here are the steps you can take:

    1. Check Table Type: Review the type of table you are trying to pass in your RFC. Make sure it is one of the allowed types mentioned above.

    2. Change Table Declaration: If you are using a different type of table, modify your ABAP code to declare the table as one of the allowed types. For example, if you are using a standard internal table, you may need to convert it to a reference table or another compatible type.

    3. Review RFC Function Module: If you are calling a function module via RFC, check the parameters of the function module to ensure that the table parameters are defined correctly and are compatible with the RFC.

    4. Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the RFC call again to ensure that the error is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • RFC (Remote Function Call): A protocol used in SAP to enable communication between different SAP systems or between SAP and non-SAP systems.
    • Table Types in ABAP: Understanding the different types of tables in ABAP (standard tables, sorted tables, hashed tables, etc.) is crucial for effective programming and avoiding errors.
    • SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for more details on RFC and table types, as well as best practices for handling data in remote calls.

    If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, consider consulting with an SAP expert or checking SAP community forums for additional insights.
