Function module RSAU_READ_MASTER_DATA

Former Member — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 17:17:43 GMT

Hello All,

Am using a FM in the update rule to read master data. Am using the FM

RSAU_READ_MASTER_DATA.

Am xporting InfoObject name, attribute and importing a table. But it gives me this error...

You attempted to pass the field "G_ATTRNM" to the formal parameter "E_TABLE"

but the formal parameter "E_TABLE" can accept only fields of

type "h". The field "E_TABLE" has the type "C".

Kindly let me kno, why is this error coming.

Rgrds,

There are four ways to extract data from the FM,

1) Only one attribute value for a single InfoObject value

2) Complete attribute list of values for a single InfoObject value

3) An internal table output for several InfoObject values.

4) An internal table outpout for all InfoObject values of a master data.

Please specify which funtionality r u utilizing from this FM?

Hello Vishesh,

Thanks for the reply. Actually I just want to retrieve one attribute value from this FM. Can you please provide me a sample code for this.

Regards,

You need to get the value of an attribute (e.g. 0SOLD_TO) corresponding to a characteristic value (e.g. 0SOLD_TO = 'CUST_CODE'). In this case you need to export to the function the name of the involved characteristic (parameter I_IOBJNM), its value (parameter I_CHAVL), and the name of the attribute (parameter I_ATTRNM). Notice that the parameter I_CHAVL expects a RSGENERAL-CHAVL data format. The function returns the attribute value in the parameter E_ATTRVAL.

DATA: CUST_CLASS,

SOLD_TO LIKE RSGENERAL-CHAVL.

SOLD_TO = DATA_PACKAGE-SOLD_TO. " in an update rule, for instance

CALL FUNCTION 'RSAU_READ_MASTER_DATA'

EXPORTING

I_IOBJNM = '0SOLD_TO'

I_CHAVL = SOLD_TO

I_T_CHAVL =
I_DATE =
I_FLG_WHOLE_TABLE =

I_ATTRNM = '0CUST_CLASS'

IMPORTING

E_STRUCTURE =
E_TABLE =

E_ATTRVAL = CUST_CLASS

EXCEPTIONS

READ_ERROR = 1

NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE = 2

WRONG_IMPORT_PARAMETERS = 3

CHAVL_NOT_FOUND = 4

OTHERS = 5

Notice that even for a custom attribute, the simple attribute name needs to be exported (e.g. ZATTR), and not the field name as it appears in the attribute table (e.g. /BIC/ZATTR). Remember also that the name of both the characteristic and the attribute must be upper case (i.e. is case sensitive). Lastly, the import parameter I_DATE may be used to specify the key date when a time-dependent characteristic is involved. The output attribute value will fulfil the temporal condition that the key date is in the validity time interval of the characteristic.

Thnks for the detailed explanation. I am pasting my code here. Can you please

check whether its as per your explanation.

DATA:

g_iobjnm TYPE rsdiobj-iobjnm,

g_chavl TYPE rsd_chavl,

g_date TYPE dats,

g_attrnm TYPE rsd_attrinm,

g_rc TYPE sy-subrc.

DATA: v_result LIKE /BIC/MZHRPA9000-/BIC/ZK025000V.

g_iobjnm = '0EMPLOYEE'.

g_chavl = 'EMPLOYEE'.

g_attrnm = 'ZK025000V'.

CALL FUNCTION 'RSAU_READ_MASTER_DATA'

EXPORTING

I_IOBJNM = g_iobjnm

I_CHAVL = g_chavl

I_ATTRNM = g_attrnm

IMPORTING

e_attrval = v_result

EXCEPTIONS

READ_ERROR = 1

NO_SUCH_ATTRIBUTE = 2

WRONG_IMPORT_PARAMETERS = 3

CHAVL_NOT_FOUND = 4

OTHERS = 5.

My main concern is to get Monthly salary from a Salary Master InfoObject, for an EMPLOYEE. I am not sure about what should be assigned to

g_iobjnm = '0EMPLOYEE'.

g_chavl = 'EMPLOYEE'

these fields.

In the Update Rule, within loop...

g_iobjnm = '0EMPLOYEE'. - Main InfoObject

g_chavl = DATA_PACKAGE-EMPLOYEE - Runtime value of Main InfoObject

g_attrnm = <Salary Master InfoObject> - Attribute of Main InfoObject

KK PP,

How have u defined v_result? It needs to be of same type as 'g_chavl'.

Check if it is same and confirm.

0SOLD_to is reference char to 0customer. You can directly read /BI0/MCUSTOMER to read attribute values.. for a particular sold to value..instead of using FM.
