Include Error - Actual parameter is incompatible with formal

[Former Member]

Hello BW experts,

We have migrated the ABAP code from BW 7.0 to BW 7.4 and I have hit one roadmap which is become a show stopper. Please if some one has already already resolve the issue can help me with the resolution.

Error :

After analysing the error what I have found that

After upgrade the parameter length has changed in BW7.4 system

Length of fields l-low from table RSZRANAGE and l_s_var-low from Table RSZGLOBV  has changed from 60 chars to 1333 and 250 , as target and source lengths are not same it is throwing an above error.

Solution by SAP

To correct this SAP suggested to implement the below note for BW 7.4 .

​SAP Note 2276400 has BW 7.4 note - 2252375​

but unfortunately this is before the upgrade so that the tables would not change. Now as already upgrade has happened and would like to revert back the changes to original how to do it or do we have other ways to resolve this issue.

I have already tried the below methods.

1. Changes made to the code where LIKE is changed to TYPES

2. registered the tables with the dev key for changes but it is now allowing and give me other errors and does not allow me to change the length of the field.

Please let me know if someone resolve this after upgrade.

Thanks & Regards,

Geeta

Thank you. It is resolved as per the new BW 7.4 we have new structures are added. I have replaced the old structures with new structures and it worked fime.

Eg: Old one was rs_s_txtsml and now this is replaces with the below one

RSDMNODETEXT.

Where exactly you are getting this issue  ?

If it is specific to cmod code then i would suggest to check this sap note.

1823174

Recently we also upgraded our system and faced such kind of issue and we followed the steps mentioned in that note.

In case it is related to cmod code only then let me know.

Any help is appreciable.

the error occurs in customer code (include LZBW_UTILITIESF01), so I suggest you check this code and see which part of it is not compliant with version 7.4 and change it

There is no custom code everything is SAP built and the complaint is between these 2 tables.

Length of fields l-low from table RSZRANAGE and l_s_var-low from Table RSZGLOBV  has changed from 60 chars to 1333 and 250 , as target and source lengths are not same it is throwing an above error.

hi Geeta

check if you can change the code so that they are referencing the same type. also share the code where it is throwing the error so that someone can help

[RafkeMagic]

1. it's OBVIOUSLY custom coding (function group ZBW_UTILITIES*)

2. table RSZRANAGE does not exist (you're probably refering to RSZRANGE)

3. before upgrading, read the manuals...

btw, it's not because the error is complaining about two standard tables that the error is in the standard code using these two tables

you're simply calling a function module (or form) with the wrong (typed) parameters...
