SO10 text - replace with itab

Former Member — Fri, 01 Feb 2019 11:50:05 GMT

Hello together,

If I have a SO10 text and single variables I know what I have to do to replace them. But in my case I would like to take a SO10 text with an itab.

For example: If have the following SO10 Text:

Error with article:
- Articlenumber: $NO&$ -> Reason: $REASON$

and an itab with the colums NO and REASON.

I want that the second line will be repeated for each line in the itab.

Does any body has an idea how do I achive this? Have I use smartforms?

The output later should be html code.

Best regards
Uwe

You mean you don't need to generate a Smart Form, only HTML? Why are you using a standard text then, can't it be more simple to do a custom solution?

Why not just loop the itab and repeat that SO10 text for each line?

If you are asking for the ABAP logic, it is a nested LOOP: go over the table of text lines, copy the line as a pattern and DELETE it if it has placeholders and LOOP over the internal table data, REPLACE the placeholders and INSERT the result into the text table.

Maybe like this

        lt_text = get_standard_text( ) " --> INTO 
        LOOP AT lt_text INTO DATA(ls_text) WHERE tdline CS '$REASON$'.
          DATA(lv_tabix) = sy-tabix.
          DELETE lt_text.
          LOOP AT it_data ASSIGNING FIELD-SYMBOL(<ls_entry>).
            DATA(ls_new) = ls_text.
            REPLACE:
               '$NO&$' IN ls_new-tdline WITH <ls_entry>-no,
               '$REASON$' IN ls_new-tdline WITH <ls_entry>-reason.
            CONDENSE ls_new-tdline.

            INSERT ls_new INTO mt_text INDEX lv_tabix.
            CHECK sy-subrc EQ 0.
            ADD 1 TO l_tabix.
          ENDLOOP.
          EXIT.
        ENDLOOP.

But as you want an HTML output, I would prefer a transformation

    DATA l_stream TYPE xstring. " or string

    CALL TRANSFORMATION your_transformation
      OPTIONS xml_header = 'no'
      SOURCE body = it_data
      RESULT XML l_stream.

<?sap.transform simple?>
<tt:transform template="my_template"  xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">
<tt:root name="BODY"/>
<tt:template name="my_template">
<html xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'>
 <tr>
  <td>No.</td>
  <td>Reason</td>
 </tr>
 <tt:loop ref="BODY">
 <tr>
  <td><tt:value ref="NO"/></td>
  <td><tt:value ref="REASON"/></td>
 </tr>
 </tt:loop>
</table>
</body>
</html>
</tt:template>
</tt:transform>

Hope this helps,

JNN

Thanks for your responses.

The nested LOOP sollution is the best solution for me. So I can use the SO10 textes that are also translateable.
