Changing parameters in a FM

Former Member — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 14:44:03 GMT

Hey,

Can anyone tell me why I can't put a table into the changing parameters of a Function Module.

The problem that we need to do it like this because some client did use such a method rather to do it inside the table.


*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
*"*"Lokale Schnittstelle:
*"  CHANGING
*"     VALUE(GET_SET_VALUE) TYPE  ZCLTESTA
*"     REFERENCE(TABLE) LIKE  ZTEST STRUCTURE  ZTEST
*"       OPTIONAL
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------

So, we need to test it like that, because we need to resolve a problem by our client that happen when we use JCO.

The problem that getting the table will lead to an exception.

Using the transaction I tried to find function module having changing, but I can't find an automated search which I'll get all FMs having Changing Parameters, I'm looking for FM having a table as a changing Parameters.

Regards,

Kais

You need to use the Table Type in the Associated type to be able to have Table as changing parameter.

E.g. you can use the SHP_VBAP_T in the changing parameter and it will provide you the internal table but if you use the VBAPVB (underlying structure of the SHP_VBAP_T) it will only provide you the workarea of the structure VBAPVB.

So, you need to create a table type of your ZTABLE in SE11.

Select the option Data Type

Give your Name

and Select the Table type in the next popup.
