EXPORT /IMPORT statements

[Former Member]

Hello,

Before running a transaction using batch input I export a variable to memory using:

EXPORT var TO MEMORY ID 'ID_CODE'.

Then, in a user exit of that tcode I'd like to import that variable from memory using:

IMPORT var FROM MEMORY ID 'ID_CODE'.

This does not work.

Any idea on how should I do it correctly?

Thanks.

Hi

Export to memory id works only when you keep running the same session,

for keeping data across the session, export your data to sap memory(cluster table)...

Just do an F1 on EXPORT to get the exact syntax....

Hi,

IF you are using Session method it will not work.Session method does not supports real time processing as it its processing is Asynchronous..

SO use Call transaction method this will work..

Just Specify whats the BDCmethod you are using.

Hi,

IMPORT and EXPORT statements are session memory. The subsequent transaction should be executed immediately.

If possible try using SET PARAMETER ID and GET PARAMETER ID for the required field...

Hi ..

Please the sample code.

export i_data = i_data to memory id 'EDD0595'.

import i_data = i_data from memory id 'EDD0595'.

if its a variable and not a table you should be fine using set parameter and get parameter.. please hit F1 on this words in ABAP editor, SAP help will give you the required info...

Hi.

Export

EXPORT lv_variable TO SHARED MEMORY indx(zk) ID 'WEBAZZ'.

Import

IMPORT lv_variable TO lv_c_variable FROM SHARED MEMORY indx(zk) ID 'WEBAZZ'.
