Assign value to import parameter table

Former Member — Thu, 15 Nov 2007 16:05:32 GMT

Hello All:

I am very new to ABAP programming.

I have a code looks like below, where ORDER_ITEM_IN is a BAPIITEMIN TYPE. And it's a table passed in as parameter. I am looping through the table to find referenced material from CUST_MAT. But when I try to assign the found value to ORDER_ITEM_IN-MATERIAL, nothing is done. I still have a empty space even though the IMARA-MATNR return correctly. What am I doing wrong? Please let me know, this is urgent!

LOOP AT ORDER_ITEM_IN.

Call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'

Exporting

input = ORDER_ITEM_IN-CUST_MAT

Importing

output = strx.

READ TABLE IMARA WITH KEY EAN11 = strx.

strx = IMARA-MATNR.

if IMARA-MATNR NE SPACE.

ORDER_ITEM_IN-MATERIAL = IMARA-MATNR.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Hi,

Declare strx as matnr.

DATA: STRX TYPE MATNR.

Reward if it helps,

Hi,

Please try this.


DATA: strx type matnr.

LOOP AT ORDER_ITEM_IN.

  call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
    exporting
      input = ORDER_ITEM_IN-CUST_MAT
    importing
      output = strx.

  READ TABLE IMARA WITH KEY EAN11 = strx.

  strx = IMARA-MATNR.

  IF IMARA-MATNR NE SPACE.
    ORDER_ITEM_IN-MATERIAL = IMARA-MATNR.
  ENDIF.

  MODIFY ORDER_ITEM_IN.

ENDLOOP.

Sorry. Tried, doesn't work

The ORDER_ITEM_IN is a parameter table, it's not a local table. I don't know if this make sense, but when I call this BAPI ORDER_ITEM_IN. Is that what's causing the problem?

I also have tried to move it to a internal table and modify, doesn't work either! Getting frustrated!

TABLES

*" ORDER_ITEM_IN STRUCTURE BAPIITEMIN

Did you try like this:

DATA: strx type matnr.
 
data: itab like BAPIITEMIN  occurs 0 with header line.

itab[] = ORDER_ITEM_IN[].

LOOP AT itab.
 
  call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
    exporting
      input = itab-CUST_MAT
    importing
      output = strx.
 
  READ TABLE IMARA WITH KEY EAN11 = strx.
  if sy-subrc = 0.    "<<< 
  strx = IMARA-MATNR.
  endif.
  IF IMARA-MATNR is not initial. " <<<
    itab-MATERIAL = IMARA-MATNR.
  ENDIF.
  MODIFY itab.
  endif.
ENDLOOP. 

ORDER_ITEM_IN[] = itab[].

Thank You Naimesh.

This worked fine. however I didn't use a temp table, I just modified the input table. Test out ok, but I wonder if there are possible problem in the future!
