Hi,

I am extracting data from a number of tables in SAP. I have managed to extract from all the tables (10 or so) except 1.

when I try and pull anything back from MARD table I get the following SAP error:

Error in ASSIGN assignment in program SAPLSDTX

ASSIGN_BASE_WRONG_ALIGNMENT

Any ideas on how I can solve this?

thanks

Douglas

Hi,

I think this might just be a problem with the RFC_READ_TABLE function that the node uses by the looks.
From the thread here: https://scn.sap.com/thread/451211

There are a few comments around this, with one of them :
I remember something like that: If the table contains floating point fields and/or one or more of the systems involved is running on unicode, this happens.

There isn't really any good way to just dump table data from SAP without writing your own functions unfortunately.
This node uses the RFC_READ_TABLE function, but it isn't supported by SAP and has limitations - which is why these helper libraries aren't supported by Lavastorm.
What you could do is attempt to write your own version of RFC_READ_TABLE, and set the RFC_READ_TABLE_Alternative parameter to the name of the function name.
Otherwise, you would have to try & solve your problem using your own BAPIs or those provided with the SAP system I think.

Tim.
