Fetching segment content in IDOC

[Former Member]

Hi,

My idoc segment contains total 16 fields but in those 16 fields I want to pick seventh field value. In the table edid4 the SDATA field contains mixing of all 16 fields data so how to pick seventh field data in that.

Please help me. I will give points.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,

yes u can get like this..say for example i have a segment which has 5 fields..

1>matnr (18 character)

2>maktx (40 characters)

3>matkl (9 characters)

4>field1 (5 characters)

5>field2 (2 characters)..

if i want third field value i can do this..

v_matkl = i_edidd-sdata+58(9).

58 because,ur matnr has 18 chars and maktx has 40 chars....

try this..

Reward if helpful.

hi,

read SDATA (segment data) into the structure of the same type as the idoc segement and use the field.

If the field number and the idoc type are to be determined dynamically then you have to use field-symbols and use assign component statement.

Hi,

Try IDOC_READ_COMPLETELY to read segment and values based on IDoc number.

Babji,

Best way would be declare a variable of type segment and then move data from SDATA to segement variable. So var-field7 ( where as field7--> Sevent field name)

Using this technic you can always read correct field value.

Hope this will help. Let me know if you need more details.

Hi Babji, YOu can use the function modules:

1) EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_READ

2) EDI_SEGMENTS_GET_ALL and

3) EDI_DOCUMENT_CLOSE_READ

in the same order:

sample code:

CALL FUNCTION 'EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_READ'

EXPORTING

DOCUMENT_NUMBER = P_DOCNUM

IMPORTING

IDOC_CONTROL = F_IDOC_CONTROL

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 01.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4

RAISING ERROR_OPENING_IDOC.

ENDIF.

• Read IDOC data segments

CALL FUNCTION 'EDI_SEGMENTS_GET_ALL'

EXPORTING

DOCUMENT_NUMBER = P_DOCNUM

TABLES

IDOC_CONTAINERS = T_IDOC_DATA

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 01.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4

RAISING ERROR_READING_IDOC.

ENDIF.

• Close IDOC

CALL FUNCTION 'EDI_DOCUMENT_CLOSE_READ'

EXPORTING

DOCUMENT_NUMBER = P_DOCNUM

IMPORTING

IDOC_CONTROL = F_IDOC_CONTROL

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 01.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4

RAISING ERROR_CLOSING_IDOC.

ENDIF.

Then you can use teh T_idoc_data intermal table to read the element in the segment.
