Passing values to an internal table and use it with the table painter

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have seen this topic here before but the answers didn't help me. Maybe I,m doing something wrong.

The problem is that I defined the following structure on the |Types| tab of the |Global Definitions| section:

TYPES: BEGIN OF DETAILS,

EBELP TYPE EKPO-EBELP,

BSMNG TYPE EBAN-BSMNG,

LFDAT TYPE RM06P-LFDAT,

END OF DETAILS.

Then defined the following definition on the |Global Data| section:

WA_DETAILS TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF DETAILS WITH HEADER LINE

The problem is that when I try to assign a value to one of the fields in the program code like this:

LOOP AT WA_EKPO.

WA_DETAILS-EBELP = WA_EKPO-EBELP.

WA_DETAILS-EMATN = WA_EKPO-EMATN.

MODIFY WA_DETAILS.

ENDLOOP.

gives me the following error:

"WA_DETAILS" is not an internal table -the "OCCURS n" specification is missing.

Then if I add the "OCCURS 10" to the definition of the Global Data the error "OCCURS 10" is not expected.

How can I define, assign values and use as a parameter an internal table defined with types for use it with the table painter?

First..... WA_DETAILS does not have a field EMATN.

WA_DETAILS-EMATN = WA_EKPO-EMATN.

Also, you may want to use APPEND WA_DETAILS.

Other than that, I'm not sure why its giving you that error.

Sorry I ommit a few lines for the lenght of the post wasn't too big. The original definition in types is:

TYPES: BEGIN OF DETAILS,

EBELP TYPE EKPO-EBELP,

EMATN TYPE EKPO-EMATN,

TXZ01 TYPE EBAN-TXZ01,

MSEHT TYPE T006A-MSEHT,

BSMNG TYPE EBAN-BSMNG,

LFDAT TYPE RM06P-LFDAT,

TDTEXT TYPE TTXIT-TDTEXT,

END OF DETAILS.

The same error appears when use append WA_DETAILS instead of modify WA_DETAILS.

The following seems to work:

REPORT ztest.

TYPES: BEGIN OF details,
          ebelp TYPE ekpo-ebelp,
          bsmng TYPE eban-bsmng,
          lfdat TYPE rm06p-lfdat,
          ematn TYPE ekpo-ematn,
       END OF details.

DATA: wa_details TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF details WITH HEADER LINE,
      wa_ekpo    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF details WITH HEADER LINE.

wa_ekpo-ebelp = '1'.
append wa_ekpo.

LOOP AT wa_ekpo.
  wa_details-ebelp = wa_ekpo-ebelp.
  wa_details-ematn = wa_ekpo-ematn.
  append wa_details.
ENDLOOP.

You can't use the modify because your not in a loop for wa_details.

I have almost the same exact code that you posted <i>R.Burbank</i> (including the append) and that works fine but only if you keep it inside that code module. Also the WA_EKPO is an internal table type of EKPO and I cannot define it like DETAILS. If you add the name of the table WA_DETAILS1 to the Output Parameters of the code module then the error:

"Field 'WA_DETAILS1' is unknown is not a specified table or defined with a 'DATA' statement".

Then if I add:

'WA_DETAILS1 TYPE DETAILS WITH HEADER LINE'

or

'WA_DETAILS1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF DETAILS WITH HEADER LINE'

to the Global Data of the Global Definitions the error:

"'WA_DETAILS1' has already been declared" appears.

I think you should post the relevant code including data declarations and the module that you're calling.

Hi,

if it is one record in wa_details. you can directly write as follows..

REPORT ZCR_TEST1 .

TYPES: BEGIN OF details,

ebelp TYPE ekpo-ebelp,

bsmng TYPE eban-bsmng,

lfdat TYPE rm06p-lfdat,

ematn TYPE ekpo-ematn,

END OF details.

DATA: wa_details TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF details WITH HEADER LINE,

wa_ekpo TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF details WITH HEADER LINE.

wa_details-ebelp = '1'.

append wa_details.

wa_ekpo-ebelp = '3'.

append wa_ekpo.

LOOP AT wa_ekpo.

wa_ekpo-ebelp = wa_details-ebelp.

wa_ekpo-ematn = wa_details-ematn.

modify wa_ekpo.

endloop.

Normally it wont be one record, so u need to put <b>read statement with key</b> in LOOP and ENDLOOP.

The code you wrote <i>Sriram</i>, works fine in a report or program but in code window of a Smart Forms I can't make it happen.

The WA_EKPO table is passed as an Input Parameter and already had data on it, so there is no problem on making a LOOP at it.

Also I can assign values to the fields of the table like 'WA_DETAILS1-EBELP = WA_EKPO-EBELP.' but the error trigers when I try to use an APPEND or MODIFY command.

Apparently I can assign data to the field of an internal table but I can't add more than one row of data to a table.
