Reading a field symbol whose structure is dynamic

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have used the concept of dynamic internal tables to select data from COSS/COSP for e.g.database tables.Field symbol of type " ANY TABLE" has been used to select data , as the dynamic structure is assigned directly to the field symbol.

To calculate the values of various fields I need to read the this field symbol for diferent line items , but I get a compilation error saying " Key not Found ". I understand that I am not able to read the field symbol because its structure is of type 'ANY TABLE' .How do I read this field symbol ?

The field symbol gets the structure of dynamic internal table as formed initially by using class concept.Is their any way in which I could get the structure of this field symbol or any other way to read it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

It depends on how u've created the dynamic table: let's know more information

Hi Reetwika,

For reading a field symbol you can use the code given below:

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <dynline> TYPE ANY.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fld> TYPE ANY.

LOOP AT <table name> ASSIGNING <DYNLINE>.

WHILE SY-SUBRC = 0.

ASSIGN COMPONENT SY-INDEX OF STRUCTURE <DYNLINE> TO <FLD>.

WRITE 😕 <FLD>.

ENDWHILE.

ENDLOOP.

Here "table name" is the name of the internal table from where you want to read.

Hope ,it might help you.

Thanks & regards,

Hi Ritwika,

Even if u use the concept if dynamic internal table, u can read the each of the field of ur structure,

if u know the name of the field.

for example:

MATNR being one of the field of internal table

field-symbols : <fs> type any.

loop at <fs_it> into <fs_wa>.

ASSIGN COMPONENT 'MATNR' OF STRUCTURE <fs_wa> to <fs_matnr>.

" in this case matnr field value will be assigned to the field symbol <fs_matnr>, so it can be used further.

endloop.

" do reply if still confused.
