use deep structure in method

Former Member — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 08:34:36 GMT

Hello Friends,

I am trying to use the method MAINTAIN of class CMD_EI_API in order to update relations data of a customer. The import parameter IS_MASTER_DATA of the method has deep structures and I am really confused on how to write data to such a structure. Can anyone pls explain how to access such a deep structure?

thx in advance,

Ali

Hello Ali

There is nothing special about complex structures like CMDS_EI_MAIN. It contains a single field CUSTOMERS which has a table type CMDS_EI_EXTERN_T (line type CMDS_EI_EXTERN).

You need to start from the most "internal" structure backwards to the complex structure.


DATA:
  ls_master_data     TYPE  cmds_ei_main,
  ls_customer         TYPE cmds_ei_extern,
  ls_sales_data       TYPE CMDS_EI_CMD_SALES, " (ls_customer-sales_data)
  ls_sale                 TYPE CMDS_EI_SALES,
  ls_datakey            TYPE CMDS_EI_SALES_KEY.

LOOP AT gt_vbak  INTO ls_vbak.

  ls_datakey-vkorg = ls_vbak-vkorg.
  ls_datakey-vtweg = ls_vbak-vtweg.
  ls_datakey-spart = ls_vbak-spart.

  ls_sale-datakey = ls_datakey.
  APPEND ls_sale TO ls_sales_data-sales. 

  ls_customer-sales_data = ls_sales_data.
  APPEND ls_customer to ls_master_data-customers.
ENDLOOP.

Regards

Uwe
