Function Modules to Execute Report Painter Report

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

May I know if there is any way to execute the GR55 Report Painter reports, and get the report result back as a table?

I need this to write a program to export the result to a external system.

Many thanks!!!

Hi,

There is one option. Execute the report with the transaction GR55. Then, export the report to excel (Report -- > Export --- > Export format Spreadsheet). A window will appear (select Change and continue button). The file will be saved as a DAT file format.

Then, you can pass the Excel file to an internal table in ABAP with the function ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE

I am actually expecting a ABAP way to do so, but not to do that in foreground manually.

I found the solution anyway by using the below sample code:

&----

---

*& Form frm_retrieve_data

&----

---

• text:Get report painter Result

----

---

FORM frm_retrieve_data .

DATA:lt_params TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF alv_s_param_wp,

lwa_params TYPE alv_s_param_wp,

lwa_msg LIKE LINE OF gt_msg,

lv_dcpfm TYPE xudcpfm.

CLEAR:gt_data,gt_msg.

• Set report painter Paramters

lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZRYEAR0'.

lwa_params-pvalue = sy-datum+0(4).

APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .

lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZBUKRS0'.

lwa_params-pvalue = 'JNPC'.

APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .

lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZBUKRS1'.

lwa_params-pvalue = 'JNPC'.

APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .

lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZF-RP00'.

lwa_params-pvalue = sy-datum+4(2).

APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .

CALL FUNCTION 'CRIF_RW_WEB_CALL_REPORT'

EXPORTING

i_report_group = 'JNZ1'

TABLES

it_params = lt_params

et_data = gt_data

et_messages = gt_msg.

LOOP AT gt_msg INTO lwa_msg

WHERE type = 'E' OR type = 'A'.

gv_flg = cns_yes.

EXIT.

ENDLOOP.

IF gv_flg IS INITIAL AND

gt_data IS INITIAL.

gv_flg = cns_nodata.

ENDIF.

ENDFORM. " frm_retrieve_data
