Long Text FM READ_TEXT Error

Former Member — Mon, 13 Sep 2010 11:06:04 GMT

Dear All,

I am using the FM "READ_TEXT" to extract the long text of Tasklist. While passing the required parameter value to this FM via SE37, i am getting all the correct text. However while calling the same FM from Program & passing the same parameter value, it throws me errors of 'Type conflicting'. My code is below:

Data: itab_text TYPE TLINE OCCURS 0.

CLEAR ITAB_TEXT[].

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

CLIENT = '025'

ID = 'PLPO'

LANGUAGE = 'EN'

NAME = '025E000023600000000200000002'

OBJECT = 'ROUTING'

TABLES

LINES = itab_TEXT[]

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Same hardcodedvalue which i am passing in above FM is working in SE37.

Don't pass the values hardcode. Instead use variables with the correct type; you can find the type of the parameters in the function itself.

Hi Deb,

The parameter "Language" must have a lenght of 1 character (put "E" instead of "EN")

Suggest you use a structure of type thead to store your input values. ALWAYS use sy-langu for tdspras/language input.

Hi,

As suggested by others,Change Language from 'EN' to 'E' or better use a variable type SY-LANGU.

Thanks & Regards,

Rock.

DATA: header LIKE thead,

textid(4) VALUE 'PLPO',

object(10) VALUE 'ROUTING',

name(70,.

Use CONCATENATE INTO name -To create the name to be passed.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

client = sy-mandt

id = textid

language = sy-langu

name = name

object = object

IMPORTING

header = header

Hope it helps !!
