Reading Characteristic Documentation

Former Member — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:27:16 GMT

Hi there!

I am trying to read the Documentation of a Characteristic, not the value itself and not atwtb from the configuration.

I need the Documentation text (the only hint i get from the interface is that this text is in TDLINE).

In my case, i need this documentation printed instead of the grade value.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

i guess this should be some kind of standard - reading the Documentation so it can be printed.

Any ideas?

Cheers

hi,

Do you want to read the documentation...?

Use FM DOCU_READ (Check the code)

or go to the table dokhl where you will get the

TDOBJECT

TDNAME

TDID

TDSPRAS

Use Read_TEXT.

Hi Aeda,

thanks for your answer.

Actually what you advise is more or less what is done already.

This way i don't get no result by the read_text function.

The text i need to extract is the one you see in the material configuration, the button below the characteristics showing a document with glasses. You know what i mean?

Cheers

Hi,

See I got your Q..!

Go to SE37, Open the FM DOCU_READ and put a break point .

Now go to your documentation( ex : SPRO-Material Man----), click on Icon with glasses, now you can find out.

Hi Adea,

thanks for your fast answer!

I followed your recommendation and tried to get to the break-point by setting it and maneuvering to the documentation call-up.

Unfortunately, i didn't arrive at the break-point. When i called up the function via se37 it worked. But not over the interface of the material configuration.

You have a guess why?

My best wishes

yes,

If click on any Documentation, it will go through that FM.

Make sure that, first Create the break point (Put a break point at select statement).

Then enter your Tcode and Check.other wise tell me the path ill check.

Hi,

maybe this 'Documentation' isn't read by this FM.

I mark the grade and click on Documentation -> the Documentation appears e.g. HANN 1.55345 hard steel, but i don't get to the BP i set.

high regards

I have run a debug on our system and function CTSD_CHAR_DOCUMENTATION_FETCH is being called to return characteristic documentation.

you can see where the call is made in include LCEI0F8F

Try this function module.
