• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WER162 - Method parameters and assigned value do not match ?

  The SAP error message WER162: Method parameters and assigned value do not match typically occurs in ABAP Object-Oriented programming when there is a mismatch between the parameters defined in a method and the values assigned or passed to it.
  
  Cause
  
  Parameter Mismatch: The method is called or implemented with parameters that do not match the method signature in terms of:
  Number of parameters
  Data types of parameters
  Parameter passing mode (IMPORTING, EXPORTING, CHANGING)
  
  
  Incorrect Assignment: Assigning a value to a method parameter or attribute that is incompatible with the parameter's data type.
  Method Redefinition Issues: When redefining a method in a subclass, the parameters must exactly match the superclass method signature. Any deviation causes this error.
  Interface Implementation: When implementing an interface method, the parameters must match the interface definition exactly.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Method Signature:
  
  Verify the method definition in the class or interface.
  Ensure the number, order, and data types of parameters match exactly where the method is called or redefined.
