Help on moving fields

Former Member — Tue, 05 Mar 2013 07:33:59 GMT

Hi expert,

I have one workarea called ls_college contains field guid, collegename, city,state, university.

It contains value of guid and college,i have another workarea called ls_modify having same fields but it contains only the value of city.

so i want to fill this value to ls_college workarea.

In this scenario ls_modify can hold any value of the field its dynamic,so i want to transfer these values to ls_college workarea.

but one more thing is, i have one variable which hold the field name which i want to transfer it to ls_college.

Thank you in advance..

Hi Nikhil,

Since both are workareas you can directly assign as workareas will carry only one entry.

Hence ls_college-city = ls_modify-city.

You can do the same to pass the variable value also.

ls_college-(fieldname to which the value should be passed) = variable.

Hope this helps!

Hi Nikhil,

if i understand you scenario properly you have two workareas

ls_college

ls_modify

depending on the field name in your variable you want to transfer the relevant value from ls_modify to ls_college.

CASE var.
WHEN 'GUID'.
      ls_college-guid = ls_modify-guid.
WHEN 'COLLEGENAME'.
    ls_college-collegename = ls_modify-collegename.
WHEN 'CITY'.
    ls_college-city = ls_modify-city.
WHEN 'STATE'.
    ls_college-state = ls_modify-state.
WHEN 'UNIVERSITY'.
    ls_college-university = ls_modify-university.
WHEN OTHERS.
ENDCASE.

Hi Nikhil,

if the structures are typed you can do it like this:

ls_college-CITY = ls_modify-CITY.

If you can guarantee that no other fields of ls_collge could be overwritten you can also do a

move-corresponding ls_modify to ls_college.

If you want to move only the value of the component(fieldname) which is stored in your other variable do it like this.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <field> type any,

<field2> type any.

ASSIGN COMPONENT field_name OF STRUCTURE LS_COLLEGE TO <field>.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

ASSIGN COMPONENT field_name OF STRUCTURE LS_MODIFY TO <field2>.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

<field> = <field2>.

ENDIF.
