IMPORT it_tab from MEMORY ID 'Zxxxx'

Updated May 18, 2018

I'am currently reviewing a custom code not developed by me.When i execute the program, i'm getting runtime exception (dump)

"Length error has occured in import statement"

This error is occuring at line :

IMPORT it_tab from MEMORY ID 'Zxxxx'.

As i am not at all familiar with IMPORT/EXPORT memory, i need some inputs as to why this error might be occurring. Any suggestions on what part of the code should i check?

Hello

Length error means the target internal table "it_tab" has structure size less than the importing table structure.You need to check at what instance that table is being exported to memory and what is its type.
type of importing structure ( "it_tab" in your case) should be same as exporting structure.

Hi,

Thanks but actually it was the same internal table being exported and imported so couldnt find structure problem.

The error was corrected by replacing the import code as

IMPORT (it_tab) from MEMORY ID 'Zxxxxx'.
