Message Text

Reference types '&1' and '&2' are not compatible (expression '&3')

Help Document

Diagnosis

The two partners of the value assignment in the binding must have compatible references.

If an expression or element is created with a data type reference to an ABAP Dictionary table field (data type reference "D") and the other expression or the other element references an object (data type reference "O"), a value assignment is not possible.

Constants, or expressions, which do not begin with the characters & or % are regarded as a data type reference to an ABAP Dictionary field.

Procedure

You should use the F4 input help for the binding definition.

You should only select container elements which F4 input help shows as Data type identical or data typecompatible. Such elements are highlighted with colors.
