former_member189410 — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 04:51:17 GMT

hi,

standard report RFTBCF00 .

in the copy of standard report(ZRFTBCF00_BW ) i added the following as suggested.

export thead to memory id '001'.

export titem to memory id '002'.

submit ZRFTBCF00_BW and return exporting list to memory .

and in other program i added

import thead FROM MEMORY id '001'.

import titem from memory id '002'.

Hello Nishu

THEAD and TITEM are defined as itabs with header lines:

************************************************************************
* Internal tables
************************************************************************
data:
   tfha     like vtbfha occurs 0,
   tfhapo   like vtbfhapo occurs 0,
   begin of thead occurs 0.
        include structure vtbfha.
data:
   xgsart(30) type c,
   xfhaart(30) type c,
end of thead,
begin of titem occurs 0.
        include structure vtbfhapo.
data:
   vgtyp(30) type c,
   xbewebe(30) type c,
   xbewart(30) type c,
   whwbetr like vtbfhapo-wzbetr,
end of titem.

Thus, if you export THEAD (or TITEM) you are exporting the header line which apprently is empty.

To export the itab body use:

EXPORT thead[] TO MEMORY ID '001'.
EXPORT titem[] TO MEMORY ID '001'.

Hi,

If you use these EXPORT and IMPORT atatment directly then that won't work in another Program, you need to use the DATABASE ID

You can at this link, you need to use the DATABASE Index for this

http://www.sts.tu-harburg.de/teaching/sap_r3/ABAP4/export01.htm

After writing this write FREE <Database_ID>.

Hello Nishu

I did not read your posting carefully enough.

When you are exporting a list using SUBMIT <reportname> ... EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY then you have to use function module LIST_FROM_MEMORY to fetch the list again.

However, this works only if you fetch the list in the program which is calling report ZRFTBCF00_BW via SUBMIT.

If you need the list in a completely different program then you have to store it in a persistent way, e.g.:

EXPORT thead[] titem[] TO DATABASE indx(zy) ID '<my id>'.

Hi,

Try decalring the internal tables in same way at the sender & receiver and it must work. But don't forget to Free the memory.

Eg:

I have used in a BADI (OO)

TYPES: BEGIN OF it_cert,

ebelp TYPE ebelp,

matnr TYPE matnr,

charg TYPE charg_d,

lichn TYPE lichn,

cert(4) TYPE c,

END OF it_cert.

Data: ws_memid(10) TYPE c.

DATA wa_cert TYPE it_cert.

DATA t_cert TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF it_cert.

... After processing the internal table

ws_memid = 'CERT'.

EXPORT t_cert FROM t_cert TO MEMORY ID ws_memid.

In other BADI declaration is same.

ws_memid = 'CERT'.

IMPORT t_cert TO t_cert FROM MEMORY ID ws_memid.

FREE MEMORY ID 'CERT'.

Try to use this code.. I was able to Export the table & Imported by using in this BADI.
