Download a special kind of internal table (dynamic programming)

[andrea_galluccio2]

Hi guys,

with dynamic programming, i've created a complex internal table of this type :

KNA1 |

KNB1 |

GS_CUSTOMERADDRESS |

GS_CUSTOMERGENERALDETAIL |

The declaration of the internal table is :

TYPES: BEGIN OF gty_record,

table TYPE tabname,

dataref TYPE REF TO data,

END OF gty_record.

This means that each line, has a different line-type. In the first field of the table, i have the name of the structure. In the second, the data-part (in debug double click on leads to structure contents - field by field).

The structure KNA1 contains C and packed (P) fields also so when i pass the internal table to FM GUI_DOWNLOAD, i have this short-dump : UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CONVERTIBLE.

Is there a way to solve this problem quickly?

The goals is download all data of a customer into a local file. Data is distribuited on different structures, readed by standard bapi 'BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL2'. This file will be read in another program, of another system.

Any hints/suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Andrea,

you could use XML for instance. It's rather standard! By using CALL TRANSFORMATION ID SOURCE dataObject RESULT XML string.

Or use a DO. ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE ... to loop at each field, and do whatever you want with them (using WRITE ... TO ... for example, to convert numbers into text).

Hi Sandra,

thx for you suggestions.

About your answer :

" Or use a DO. ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE ... to loop at each field, and do whatever you want with them (using WRITE ... TO ... for example, to convert numbers into text)."

I cannot use this approach to the problem, because i should keep in mind the dimension of single fields and the blanks should be concatenated also, but RESPECTING BLANK switch of concatenate instruction doesen't exists in 4.7 abap.

Sure, i can use a workaround, but i'll have a lot of programming.

"you could use XML for instance. It's rather standard! By using CALL TRANSFORMATION ID SOURCE dataObject RESULT XML string."

This could be the solution. I've already read some posts about it before write mine. I should test it: i don't know if in 4.7 release works. So i could transform the internal table to xml and save to text file.

But then, how i can read xml string and mapping again in this special kind of table ?

Is CALL TRANSFORMATION ID SOURCE XML String RESULT Dataobject instruction sufficient to perform this task?

Thanks a lot

Andrea
