Summary :
SAP Note addresses changes in BW 7.4 SPS2 affecting ABAP programs, particularly when handling characteristic values. With the release upgrade, the length limitation for characteristic values increases from 60 to 250 characters, necessitating modifications to domain RSCHAVL and related data elements. Programs using generic type handling or SAP-internal functions with modified interfaces might face runtime and syntax errors. The note advises the use of the Code Inspector Tool for detecting issues pre and post-upgrade and provides solutions for common errors. Additional adjustments may be required in customer-specific ABaprograms, especially with legacy interfaces and data structures.
