EVENT problem in Table maintenance generator

[Former Member]

Hello all

I m working on 4.6C sytem. I m facing 2 problems in events in table maintenance generator

(1) I am using 04 event (After deleting records from table) I have written BREAK-POINT in the Form .....ENDFORM... But the control doesnt stop there , when i select an existing record and press delete record button? not able to understand this

(2) When i implement even t 03( Before deleting records from table) , and select an existing record and press delete record button . Control successfully Go to corresponding FORM ... BREAK-POINT ENDFORM .

But now the problem is.. in debuggin i can see the contents in TOTAL table but when i try to code LOOP at TOTAL ..ENDLOOP...it gives me syntax error saying " table TOTAL doesnot exists or not defined..but similar field TOTAL_S , TOTAL_M , TOTAL_L exists.. ???

how come i can see the same during debugging but cannot code it ?

Plese help

Hi Nilesh,

(1) I think the control will stop there after you delete AND save. Not sure about that but give it a try.

(2) I believe you are trying to access fields inside table TOTAL, is that right?

Actually you have to declare a work area with your Z table type.

DATA: w_workarea type ztable.

LOOP at total.
  w_workarea = total.

endoop.

Then you can work with w_workarea.

Best regards.

Hello danilo,

I had tried it , but after pressing SAVE also it DID NOT stop there. and it just deleted the entries.

also

i DID NOT declare work area for my table BUT before that IF i simply write LOOP AT TOTAL ...ENDLOOP still it gives me the same syntax error..

Have you tried using table EXTRACT ?

Hi Nilesh,

Check the link given by Danilo.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/91/ca9f14a9d111d1a5690000e82deaaa/content.htm

Only those structures will be available for coding, which is given under 'Realization' heading in that link.

TOTAL itab will not be available in 03 & 04 events. You can use EXTRACT.

Thanks,

Hello Nisha & Danilo

Thanks a lot. I have not used EXTRACT in coding. I will try it ..BUT in the documentation of events from SAP i read that Both TOTAL and EXTRACT tables should be modified . So i had started coding with TOTAL and got stuck..

anyways i will check and revert back

Thanks once again.

Best regards

Nilesh
