How to export the select-option and import into method using Object Oriented ABAP?

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

In OO Abap, I want to use one select-option (lets say for  vbak-vbeln, taken as a input from user) and export it to one method (that means, method should have import parameter), in which I have written a logic to fetch the sales order information from vbak table (i.e., all the sales order which falls under select-options).

Now my issue is, while declaring the method what should be the type of import parameter ?

I have tried creating a range table and given the type of import parameter (of method) of range table,but its not happening as desired.Its showing a type compatibility error.Please go through the similar code snippet as below :

Can anyone help me out to resolve the above scenario.

Shivam,

Because select-options are tables with header lines, call your method like this:

CALL METHOD ref->selection

  EXPORTING

    s_matnam = s_name[].

Currently you are trying to pass the header line to the method, not the table.

Additionally, it would be clearer to move your data and selection-screen declarations to the top include or top of the program since there is no unique scope for the START-OF-SELECTION event block.

Hi Shivam,

Try passing s_name[] , instead of s_name to the method.

CALL METHOD ref-->selection

     EXPORTING

          s_matnam = s_name[].

select-options s_name for zmaterial-matname

Also, since it appears you are writing a global class, you don't need to pass in the select-options to the methods if you don't want to.  They can be referenced as global variables.  Performance is not affected, so do whatever you think is more readable and maintainable.

Hi all,

Thanks for your reply. I missed  '[]' while exporting. Issue solved now.
