You might be able to avoid the error by using a different offset.
The following must apply: Offset = n * <runtime parameter>, n >= 0 Please see abap error for more details about the possible cause of this runtime error and how it could be avoided.

Please see send to sap for more details about the possible cause of this runtime error and how it could be avoided.

Error in ASSIGN assignment in program <runtime parameter>. Please see abap error for more details about the possible cause of this runtime error and how it could be avoided.

In the current program <runtime parameter>, an error occurred when setting the field symbol <runtime parameter> with ASSIGN or ASSIGNING (maybe in the combination with the CASTING addition).

When converting the base entry of field symbol <runtime parameter> (number in base table: <runtime parameter>), the system detected that the target type requires memory alignment <runtime parameter>.

The source data object has an invalid memory alignment however, as it is not divisible by <runtime parameter>.

If you want to assign a subfield of a structure to a field symbol for example, the offset from the start of the structure should be a multiple of <runtime parameter>. The structure should also contain a type that has at least the alignment <runtime parameter>. Please see abap error for more details about the possible cause of this runtime error and how it could be avoided.
