  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS_TOOL892 - Row type of table &1 was adjusted ?

    The SAP error message:

    WS_TOOL892: Row type of table &1 was adjusted


    Meaning / Cause:

    This message indicates that the row type of an internal table (whose name is given by &1) was automatically adjusted by the ABAP runtime or development tools. This usually happens when the structure or type definition of the internal table has changed (for example, due to changes in the underlying dictionary structure or program code), and the system has adapted the internal table's row type accordingly.

    Common scenarios include:

    • The internal table is declared with a type that has changed (e.g., a dictionary structure or a data element has been modified).
    • The program or tool (like the ABAP Workbench or runtime environment) detects a mismatch between the declared row type and the actual data structure and adjusts it to maintain consistency.
    • This message is informational and not necessarily an error, but it warns that the row type was changed to avoid runtime inconsistencies.

    When does it occur?

    • During program activation or runtime when internal tables are used.
    • When dictionary objects (structures, tables, data elements) are changed and the program is not reactivated or adjusted accordingly.
    • When using tools that manipulate internal tables or when debugging.

    Solution / How to handle:

    1. Check the affected internal table:

      • Identify the internal table named in the message (&1).
      • Review its declaration and the associated data types or structures.
    2. Check for recent changes in dictionary objects:

      • Verify if any structures, tables, or data elements used in the internal table have been changed recently.
      • If yes, ensure that the program is reactivated or adjusted to reflect these changes.
    3. Re-activate the program or include:

      • Sometimes, simply reactivating the program or the relevant includes can resolve the inconsistency.
    4. Adjust the program code if necessary:

      • If the structure changes are intentional and require code changes, update the program accordingly.
      • Make sure that the internal table declarations match the current dictionary definitions.
    5. Check for runtime data inconsistencies:

      • If the message appears during runtime, check if the internal table is filled or manipulated with data that does not match the declared row type.
    6. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Although this message is informational, if it causes issues, check SAP Notes or OSS for any known bugs or patches related to WS_TOOL892.

    Additional Information:

    • This message is part of the Workbench Tools (WS_TOOL) message class.
    • It is generally informational and does not stop program execution.
    • It helps developers identify potential mismatches between data definitions and program declarations.
    • Keeping dictionary objects and programs in sync is essential to avoid such messages.

    Summary:

    Aspect Description
    Cause Internal table row type was changed/adjusted due to changes in underlying data structures.
    Effect Informational message indicating adjustment to maintain consistency.
    Solution Check and synchronize data definitions and program code; reactivate programs if needed.
    Impact Usually no runtime error, but may indicate potential data or type mismatches.

    If you want, I can help you analyze a specific program or table declaration related to this message.
