Getting the primitive data types for the SAP data types?

Former Member — Mon, 23 Oct 2006 12:53:43 GMT

Hi,

In the project I work there is a request to get the primitive data types, such as char, integer, etc for the ABAP SAP types.

Problem is that we want to print the primite datatypes for each field for a lot of tables so we dont want to click at each field to find the primitive datatype but rather to do some kind of "print this table with the primitive datatypes in the column field type instead of /SAPAPO/MATNR"

is there a way of printing this information or do I have to click for each field to find the primitive datatype for each field?

regards

Baran

Hello Baran,

the information you want is stored in table DD03L;

in the field DATATYPE. So you could write an report which reads the DD03L and outputs the datatype.

Hi,

YOu will find all those details in table DD03L. You can use this table.

You can also refer DD01L and DD02L also.

Thanks,

Ramakrishna

You can write a small z program which selects the data from the tables:

DD01L-DATATYPE If you know the Domains

DD03L-DATATYPE If you know the Table fields

DD04L-DATATYPE If you know the Dataelements
