Hi

The statement is assigning the <b>content of l_lines_names</b> to <b> field-symbol <lines>.</b>

l_lines_name is containing the name G_<value of p_tc_name>_LINES.

Hi Prajwal,

ASSIGN statement is used to assign values to any field symbol youu are using in your code.

After the assign statement here value in the variable L_LINES_NAME will be available in the field-symbol <LINES>.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi

CONCATENATE 'G_' p_tc_name '_LINES' INTO l_lines_name.

ASSIGN (l_lines_name) TO <lines>.

Basicall ASSIGN statement will make the field symbol to point a Data Object.

But We can Pass the Data Object name Directly (Static ASSIGN)

Eg:

data : VAR1 TYPE I VALUE 10.

FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS1> TYPE I.

ASSIGN VAR1 TO <FS1>.

WRITE <FS1>.

And..

We can Pass the Data Object name in a Variable (Dynamic ASSIGN)

Eg:

data : VAR1 TYPE I VALUE 10.

data : fieldname(10) type c .

FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS1> TYPE I.

fieldname = 'VAR1'.

ASSIGN (FIELDNAME) TO <FS1>.

WRITE <FS1>.

In this case the data object to which the field symbol should point will be determined at runtime.

Hope You will get it.

Regards.

Hi,

normally,assign will move the contents of one variable to another.

where in case of field symbols.the value u r replacing also be assigned by another value.

other wise it will give error as field-symbol not assigned.

data:var1(10) value 'var2'.

data:var2(10) value 'var3'.

data:var3(10) value 'var4'.

data:var4(10) value 'output'.

field-symbols:<fs> type any.

field-symbols:<fs1> type any.

field-symbols:<fs2> type any.

assign (var1) to <fs>.

assign (<fs>) to <fs1>.

assign (<fs1>) to <fs2>.

write:/ <fs>, / <fs1>,/ <fs2>.
