Hello William,

You can find the Type pools from SE11.

1. Go to SE11.

2. Choose the Menu Option Utilities-->Other Dictionary Objects.

3. The first option on the pop-up screen will be Type Group. Type Group and Type-pool are the same thing. you can use the Find option here.

Regards,

Anand Mandalika.

type pools are global constants.

it can be created using se11 transaction or by using forward navigation from se38.

once defined u can use it in any program by using the statements.for eg..

type-pools vrm.

note:the dataobjects in the type pool shoud begin with the type pool name.so in our above case it will begin with vrm_xxxx.

Cheers,

Abdul Hakim

The type-pool are a pool of type, i.e. it's a group where all types of certain area are declared.

For example, when it uses the ALV fm it needs to use the type defined in type-pool SLIS.

You can find them in dictionary (SE11).

In a program it declares it wants to use a certain type-pool by statament TYPE-POOLS.

The types of type-pool TRUXS are used to defined the paramters of the interface of some fm as (for example) SAP_CONVERT_TO*:

In these fm the internal tables (store the converted data) are like TRUXS_T_TEXT_DATA.
