Dynamic Computation / Formula

Former Member — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 05:20:10 GMT

Hi experts,

I want to know is it possible dynamic compute in ABAP.

Ex:

p_amt = computation

where computation = 1000 / 0.12

this is same logic with dynamic sql where in you have the option to put the table and condition dynamically. thanks

Hi,

Yes that is definitely possible.


if condition1 = 'cond1'.
   computation = 1000 / 10.
else.
   computation = 200.
endif.

data: query type string.

concatenate 'P_AMT =' (computation) into query. 

select * from <tab1> into <itab>
   where (query).

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Kiran

Hi Kiran thanks for reply but i am not using the dynamic computation in sql, the reason i am doing these because the computation will just be fetch in maintenance table and i'll just replacing the value please see some sample code:

data: c_val(20) type c value 'amount / 0.12',

p_amt(16) type p decimals 2,

p_amt1(16) type p decimals 2 value '1000'.

data: command type string,

com1(16) type p.

concatenate 'p_amt1' '/' '0.12'

into command separated by space.

compute p_amt = (command). "--> unable to interpret expression (command).
