Data retrieval from structure

Former Member — Sat, 22 Jul 2006 05:54:00 GMT

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me how to retrieve the data from structure called RS45V, the field is kwmeng(Quantity) .

The problem is while i am retriving the kwmeng field from RS45V, it is showing that it is not a table.

Thanks in advance.

Venkat

Hi Venkat

Goto SE12 and give the data element name of the field kwmeng of structure RS45V.

In the date element display screen, check the where-used-list to find list of the tables in which the data-element is used to store the data.

Choose the right table from the list.

Hope this helps!

Best regards,

Thangesh

hi,

tables are used to store the data,and,structure doesn't contain any data,it's just a skeleton for the table,and we can't retrieve data from it,

if that is for BDC,just use the structure name with field name,you might get data,best of luck

As already stated, structures do not contain data, in this case, it is used to define the screen. From the looks of your structure and field, my guess is that the data for KWMENG can be found in table VBAP.

hi venkat,

structure are used to hold records at the runtime and it is not persistent as the database table.

so for any transaction you can easily find the table name by doing <b>sql trace</b> on the corresponding transaction.
