SAP Note 832577 - Runtime error on Unicode - inconsistent table types

Summary :
Post-Unicode conversion, users encounter runtime errors in SAP due to table type inconsistencies; some table types fail with line lengths deviating from the dictionary definition. The ABAP runtime identifies inconsistencies, categorized under 'DDIC_TYPES_INCONSISTENT'. These arise notably when RUTTTYPACT program isn’t run post Unicode conversion or during mass dictionary object activations where system malfunctions may lead to partial table type activations, creating discrepancies. To rectify, initially run RUTTTYPACT, then activate remaining types using RUTTTYPACT or the more efficient RUTTTYPACT2, which targets only inconsistent types. The necessary program can be downloaded from a linked SAP Note.
