Text-Editing with Notes - Logic

Former Member — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 05:46:05 GMT

Hi Rene,

It was really an interesting article posted on Notings, i was just going through it and was keen to implement it, but i was not able to figure out how to implement it, can you please share the solution and the code..please find below the link of your article.

After creating the configuration in table TTXFORMAT and the related changes in SE75 for in my example customer master the system will call the function: EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_ZXXXNX.

I have created two functions EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_ZXXXNX and EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_ZXXXTX. As SAP has implemented the standard functions, I also use these functions to execute a report ( SAP version: sapredit_text_format_doi ), which does the text maintenance with GUI interface.

the code for the functions are in my case ( export and import values are as the standard SAP function EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_DOC 😞

EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_ZXXXNX


  DATA: dest(32),
        msg(80),
        report LIKE rsvar-report,
        device(1),

    lines[]  = ws_text-lines.

      PERFORM tobjectv using newheader.
    ENDIF.

    FREE MEMORY ID 'ZTXT'.
  ELSE.
    MESSAGE e009(texteditdoi).
  ENDIF.

The code which I developed to handle the notes logic and make use of the different editors SAP has, is fully handle inside the report zsytu001. All the text maintenance is encapsulated into serveral objects, which allow the use of different text editors based on the entries in se75 and also handles the notes logic.

I hope this answers your question.

Hi Rene,

Thanks a lot for the code, i have got a few calrifications regarding the code, if could answer me that wil be really nice of you...

IN FM EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_ZXXXNX.

1) * If user comes back and changes again

READ TABLE wt_text INTO ws_text

READ TABLE lines INDEX 3.

What is the table that you are refering to in declaration, is it STXH?

2) SUBMIT zsytu003 AND RETURN.

Is the report used with submit wrapper of this report this sapredit_text_format_doi, can you pls share that code?

3) What is the code of this routine PERFORM tobjectv using newheader & PERFORM refresh_table ON COMMIT refering to.

IN FM EDIT_TEXT_FORMAT_ZXXXTX.

1) READ TABLE lines INDEX 1.

which table does is refer to in declaration.

SUBMIT zsytu001 AND RETURN.

2) Which report is used here as this is custom report, can u share the code pls.

Please care to reply back.. Thank you for sharing.

Your questions:

Please check the function definiton of the function I mentioned (edit_text_format_doc😞


FUNCTION edit_text_format_doc.
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
*"*"Local Interface:
*"  IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(HEADER) LIKE  THEAD STRUCTURE  THEAD
*"     VALUE(CONTROL) LIKE  TTXCT STRUCTURE  TTXCT
*"  EXPORTING
*"     VALUE(NEWHEADER) LIKE  THEAD STRUCTURE  THEAD
*"     VALUE(NEWCONTROL) LIKE  TTXCT STRUCTURE  TTXCT
*"  TABLES

*"     REFERENCE(DOC_SIZE) TYPE  I OPTIONAL
*"  EXCEPTIONS
*"      COMMUNICATION
*"      TEXTFORMAT
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------

The table is coming from the parameters of the function. This is how the text loaded by the transaction get's passed into the function and back. The table wt_text is part of the function group and is used to store the text, if the user changes or creates text (with notes logic) and then comes back in text maintenance before saving.

Yes I can give you the code for the report, but the report only calls a list of objects. If you want to reproduce the whole notes logic, I have developed you need all this code. I thought you only want to understand how the logic works to implement a different editor of your own choice?

Hi Rene,

I wanted to reproduce the notes logic that you have developed in my system and thats the reason am asking you the code of reports and the step by step process, although i did complete 2 functions modules one to open a editor to write the text and other editor has the text which retrieves all the text of a particular object( i can share that if you want me to), but i want to implement your solution and reproduce wat you have done in my system.. please care to share your solution so that i can enable it in my system..

Regards,

Abdul.

To give you all the code I did. I have created a tutorial. I have posted Part I and will do two more parts.

have look here: [Code Tutorial|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/snippets/text-editingfromNotes-LogictoHTMLStandardtextPartI]

I hope this helps.

Hi Rene Turnheim!

I have studied your Text Editing with Notes-logic Article. It is very interesting and challenging task to do. I go through all the codes which you had posted in SDN both partI and PartII. I decided to do the implementation.I have some doubt in part-I that is some of the variables are not Declared. Can you please give me the solution for this?.I mentioned below the variables witch class and methods..

Am Waiting for Your reply!

Class Methods variables

Z_C_SYT_TEXT_OBJECT -->FREE -->wc_texteditor

Z_C_SYT_TEXT_NOTES -->CONSTRUCTOR -->ws_textdo-notes_position

Z_C_SYT_TEXT_NOTES -->CONSTRUCTOR -->is_textf-display_only

Hi Rene,

declaration of abap_true is also missing, what does <> abap_true denote here.

IF ws_textdo-display_only <> abap_true AND

w_is_modified = c_true.

Re: Text-Editing with Notes - Logic

Former Member — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 17:11:53 GMT

abap_true comes from a type pool of SAP called 'ABAP' .

Where is the code you copied from? It looks like it misses the operand?

If it is in one of the object you have to added this type group ABAP on the property tab.

Re: Text-Editing with Notes - Logic

Former Member — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 14:34:27 GMT

Dear Rene,

Am penning down some other missing parts as well;

PART-1

1. Convert_text_to_screen method is missing where do we in-coporate this (Which class)?

To get the sample program ZSAMPLE_TEXT_OBJECT_SIMPLE to work, create in SE75 a new text object and text id. The program uses ZSY_TEXT with TO01 as ID.
In addition you have to create the entry in ZSYT_TTXOB accordingly.
333     ZSY_TEXT    TO01  MANDT          DOCNO04                                                                 132

Is this a sample program to check if the created classes are working coz i think we need to create a module pool and incorporate the code in the PBO and PAI events, please clarify on thi

3. In the method UPDATE_TEXT Function module 'ZSYO_ACTUALIZA_TEXTO' is used can u pls give the code of this FM

4. Do we need to keep the data element same as domain name for ZZNOTES_POSITION

5. Can u pls clarify on Exceptions config and raise error.

6. Z_C_SYT_2BOX_NOTES is this class used only for sample program not for customer text implementation

Please answer the above queries, Many thanks all your efforts

Hi Rene !

In previous thread Abdul Bari said some missing parts ,it is correct and also I have found some other missing parts in the coding .

In class Z_C_SYT_TEXT you have mention the method UPDATE_TOBJECTV,UPDATE_TOBJECTV2. and

there is no coding in that method.

In class Z_C_SYT_TEXT you have mention the method AFTER_SAVE but there is no coding in that method.

You have mentioned the methods in class but some of the methods having no coding,Please check it and inform me.

As Bari said 'ZSYO_ACTUALIZA_TEXTO' this FM is missing and i have found this ZSY_USER_HISTORY_LINE FM coding also Missing .

Can You please Clarify this issue! Waiting for Your Replay!

Thanks

Yes, I agree there are still o few points open.

Firfst of all I have started a blog and I will try to post all objects in a bit more detail.

Some of your questions are already answered in the first blog. As soon as it is aproved Iwill post the link here.

1) Both update methods in Z_C_SYT_TEXT update_tobjectv and update_tobjectv2 I have only used for conversion and should not be created. I thought I deleted it out of the code I provided. Please ignore.

2) Sorry for the FM: ZSYO_ACTUALIZA_TEXTO. I overlooked that I am using this FM in the object:

This is just to be sure that the text gets deleted, if the user has deleted the text.
