ECC syntax error for ADDFIELD.

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

I am getting a syntax error in ECC, for ADDFIELD.

My original code is :

data: XI_SELTAB LIKE RSPARAMS OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

ADDFIELD XI_SELTAB 'ARBPL' V_GEWRK.

Changed code is :

*data: XI_SELTAB LIKE RSPARAMS OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

TYPES: ty_XI_SELTAB TYPE RSPARAMS.

Data: XI_SELTAB TYPE standard table of ty_XI_SELTAB.

Data: wa_XI_SELTAB type ty_XI_SELTAB.

ADDFIELD WA_XI_SELTAB 'ARBPL' V_GEWRK.

What is the exact syntax at here?? it not taking from work area.

Thanks,

Hi,

When I check in ECC getting syntax error ADDFIELD is not defined.

Is it SAP standard statement.

If it is a Macro, loop the itab ans pass Work area.

Regards,

Sunil

Thanks for the reply,

When I have commented this part and brings to old one :

*TYPES: ty_XI_SELTAB TYPE RSPARAMS.

*Data: XI_SELTAB TYPE standard table of ty_XI_SELTAB.

*Data: wa_XI_SELTAB type ty_XI_SELTAB.

XI_SELTAB LIKE RSPARAMS OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

ADDFIELD XI_SELTAB 'ARBPL' V_GEWRK.

Then there is no error but u can see it in Extended syntax errors.

I think ADDFIELD is SAP standard statement.

Thanks,

Sorry to all,

DEFINE addfield.

&1-sign = 'I'.

&1-kind = 'S'.

• use operation cp if the value contains wildcards

if &3 ca '*'.

&1-option = 'CP'.

else.

&1-option = 'EQ'.

endif.

• append the field name/value to the selection table

if not &3 is initial.

&1-selname = &2.

&1-low = &3.

append &1.

endif.

clear &1.
