How to get Multiple Values for a single Variable in BPS.......

Former Member — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 19:04:56 GMT

Hi Gurus:

I have a layout for planning, where I can plan for 5 days of the week. I also have a day column (yesterday) where I have the actual values. Users want to edit/foecast the next 5 days values. I am using a Variable to get the Date column which uses the System Date. However, since I am getting just one date in the Function Module (Code given below), the remaining days are greyed out and I can not enter the forecast values. I would like the same variable to get a series of dates in the same function module. What changes do I nee dto make in the ABAP code so that the remaining columns (Date) becaoe available for editing??

The FM code I have to get "Today's Date" is as follows:

FUNCTION ZCSHFL_GET_TODAY.

*"----

""Local Interface:

*" IMPORTING

*" REFERENCE(I_AREA) TYPE UPC_VAR-AREA

*" REFERENCE(I_VARIABLE) TYPE UPC_Y_VARIABLE

*" REFERENCE(I_CHANM) TYPE UPC_Y_CHANM

*" REFERENCE(ITO_CHANM) TYPE UPC_YTO_CHA

*" EXPORTING

*" REFERENCE(ETO_CHARSEL) TYPE UPC_YTO_CHARSEL

*"----

data: ls_charsel type upc_ys_charsel.

ls_charsel-seqno = 1.

ls_charsel-sign = 'I'.

ls_charsel-opt = 'EQ'.

ls_charsel-CHANM = I_chanm.

ls_charsel-low = sy-datum.

insert ls_Charsel into table eto_charsel.

ENDFUNCTION.

I want to get the Yestarday's Date as weel as dates for next 4 days from Today for this variable which are being used in the layout. Can anyone suggest the code tor this please.

Thanks very much in advance......

Best.... ShruMaa

Hi,

What I understand you need to return those dates from function module using parameter ETO_CHARSEL , right? If so just use this code:


ls_charsel-seqno = 1.
ls_charsel-sign = 'I'.
ls_charsel-opt = 'BT'.  "we are giving ranges, so days between...
ls_charsel-CHANM = I_chanm.
ls_charsel-low = sy-datum - 1.  "...first day is yesterday
ls_charsel-high = sy-datum + 4. "...and last day is 4 days from today
insert ls_Charsel into table eto_charsel.

This way you provide 5 days starting from yesterday till 4 days from today.

Regards

Marcin

Unfortunately it did not work....! It does not bring the date format at all.

I tested the FM entering the Planning Area, Variable, and the Charateristic 0CALDAY and it returns just 1 value but it is not in any date format. The existing code does bring 'Today's date'

Any further suggestions please.....?
