Filtering internal table

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

I want to apply a filter in codes to an internal table. Is there any function that allow me to do that easily or should I write it by myself?

Thank you.

Hi,

you mean filtering data from a internal table 1. at time or 2. in loop processing .

1. first case use delete command with condition.

2. use check or if condition with continue and exit and modify table.

please don't mind if i understood your question wrongly.

Hi,

Are you taking about applying a filter to the data in the internal table?

If Yes below is the procedure:

1.You can take data in a internal table using select statements.

2.Use the data you got in the 1st internal table as a filter to get some another data from some another table using concept of "FOR ALL ENTRIES".

Below is a small eg:

"fetching data from bkpf table as per posting date and company code and filling i_bkpf
    select bukrs
           belnr
           xblnr
           waers
           budat from bkpf into table i_bkpf
                 where   budat in s_pos and bukrs in s_ccode .

  "fetching data from bseg table as per the data available in i_bkpf and company code.
  select bukrs
         menge
         dmbtr
         meins
         matnr
         ebeln
         lifnr
         shkzg  from bseg into table  i_bseg for all entries in i_bkpf
              where bukrs = i_bkpf-bukrs and lifnr in  s_vendno and shkzg in s_dc.

In short you are applying filter for data that is present in i_bkpf internal table and getting i_bkpf table.

Actually I am trying to imitate ALV filtering in my abap code. In my program, I am submitting another program and getting its output data to send as excel attachment. While doing so, I am extracting layout data (also filtering options of ALV) and applying these to the output internal table. For example; I need to use below data to my raw data in ABAP codes;

Filter data of ALV: (lr_handle)
