Problem in using FM SELECT_TEXT

Former Member — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 10:08:39 GMT

Hi friends,

I have a problem in using fm SELECT_TEXT.

Here I want to fetch Material PO text in Material master to my report.

I just dont know in which field of table "it_thead" the actual text is available.\

I tried debugging the program but was not successful.

I have also tried using READ_TEXT but it gives an error if no Text exists.

CALL FUNCTION 'SELECT_TEXT'

EXPORTING

client = sy-mandt

object = 'MATERIAL'

name = wrk_matnr

id = 'BEST'

language = sy-langu

TABLES

selections = it_thead.

How do i print the actual MAterial PO text in IT_THEAD ?

hope u understand the question...please do let me know if any details are required from myside..

Hi,

If u have text in internal table, Just loop at that table and print the text.

LOOP AT it_thead INTO wa_thead.

WRITE: /1 wa_thead-tdline.

ENDLOOP.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Hi Vinod,

There's no field as TDLINE in THEAD structure.

It is there in READ_TEXT FM in TLINE structure.

Hi yogesh,

If this text is stored in Text object the you have to use read_text but text id and name should be passed corectly.

Kindly look into follwoing link:

If having any problem then let me know the details further .

Hi Smita,

If I use READ_TEXT in my program,

It gives an ERROR IF NO TEXT EXIST for the particular MATERIAL.

Hi,

My mistake.

Check below sample code.


PARAMETERS: po_matnr TYPE mara-matnr.
DATA: i_lines TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF tline,
      wa_lines TYPE tline,
      l_matnr TYPE thead-tdname.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
  EXPORTING
    INPUT         = po_matnr
 IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = po_matnr
          .

MOVE po_matnr TO l_matnr.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
  EXPORTING
*   CLIENT                        = SY-MANDT
    ID                            = 'BEST'
    LANGUAGE                      = sy-langu
    NAME                          = l_matnr              "Pass material with leading zeros
    OBJECT                        = 'MATERIAL'
*   ARCHIVE_HANDLE                = 0
*   LOCAL_CAT                     = ' '
* IMPORTING
*   HEADER                        =
  TABLES
    LINES                         = i_lines
 EXCEPTIONS
   ID                            = 1
   LANGUAGE                      = 2
   NAME                          = 3
   NOT_FOUND                     = 4
   OBJECT                        = 5
   REFERENCE_CHECK               = 6
   WRONG_ACCESS_TO_ARCHIVE       = 7
   OTHERS                        = 8
          .
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.

LOOP AT i_lines INTO wa_lines.
  WRITE: /1 wa_lines-tdline.
ENDLOOP.

Just execute this code by inputting ur material number.

If the text doesnot exist the error u r getting because of not commenting the MESSAGE statement after FM call. Try in the way i told above.

Thanks,

Vinod.

hI Vinod,

I've now used READ_TEXT FM and removed the Messages.

If no text exist for material then

it says TEXT 000000000005010600 ID BEST LANGUAGE EN NOT FOUND..

Hi,

It is obvious that if u don't have text u will get this message. But where r u getting this message?

When u execute? or exception?

U can put a check for sy-subrc after FM call. If 0 then only loop and display the data.

Did u uncommented the EXCEPTIONS in FM call? If not do that.

Comment the Message statement. U can simply copy paste my code and modify as per ur req.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Dear Vinod,

Thanks for your reply..

I am sorry for replying late as I was not able to access Internet since last couple of days.

I had already done everything you recommended me.

Here's my code for READ_TEXT.

It is Giving me error when I press EXECUTE Button.

LOOP AT it_mara.

CLEAR: wrk_matnr, it_tline.

REFRESH it_tline.

wrk_matnr = it_mara-matnr.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

client = sy-mandt

id = 'BEST'

language = sy-langu

name = wrk_matnr

object = 'MATERIAL'

TABLES

lines = it_tline.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

input = it_mara-matnr

IMPORTING

output = wa_final-matnr.

wa_final-matkl = it_mara-matkl.

wa_final-maktx = it_mara-maktx.

Hi try this,

tables stxh.

LOOP AT it_mara.

CLEAR: wrk_matnr, it_tline.

wrk_matnr = it_mara-matnr.

*select single **

from stxh

where TDOBJECT = 'MATERIAL' and

TDNAME = wrk_matnr and

TDID = 'BEST'

TDSPRAS = sy-langu.

if sy-subrc = 0.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

client = sy-mandt

id = 'BEST'

language = sy-langu

name = wrk_matnr

object = 'MATERIAL'

TABLES

lines = it_tline.

loop at it_tline.

move the data of tdline to ur variable.

endloop.

endif.

Hi yogesh,

It seems that the text name you are passing does not exist in text object .

Kindly use following function before passing it to read_text

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

INPUT = wrk_matnr

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = wrk_matnr

Then pass this object name to read_text

I hope it will solve your issue

if not then let me know.

Thanks,

Smita .

Hi,

U have missedout exceptions part after READ_TEXT FM.

Please paste exceptions also. It works.


EXCEPTIONS
   ID                            = 1
   LANGUAGE                      = 2
   NAME                          = 3
   NOT_FOUND                     = 4
   OBJECT                        = 5
   REFERENCE_CHECK               = 6
   WRONG_ACCESS_TO_ARCHIVE       = 7
   OTHERS                        = 8

Check my earlier code.

Thanks,

Vinod.
