UCFE105 - Details

• The SAP error message UCFE105, which states "Only the first 8 characters of the structure name will be transferred," typically occurs in the context of data transfer or integration processes, particularly when dealing with structures in ABAP or data interfaces.
  
  Cause:
  This error arises because SAP has a limitation where only the first 8 characters of a structure name are considered during certain operations, such as data transfers or when interfacing with external systems. If the structure name exceeds this length, the system truncates it, which can lead to confusion or errors in processing.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Rename Structures: If you have control over the structure names, consider renaming them to ensure that the first 8 characters are unique and meaningful. This will help avoid conflicts and ensure that the correct structure is referenced.
  
  
  Check Data Transfer Logic: Review the logic in your data transfer or integration process
