Summary :

Supported since SAP NetWeaver 7.00, this bug surfaces particularly with field names like '/abc/def'. The solution involves using addressed correction instructions or updating with suggested support packages. Particular syntax errors, such as "SQL0104N An unexpected token "/" was found...", indicate the problem with non-quoted field names in the partition expression, correctable by quoting the field names as shown in corrected excerpts.
