Reg text elements and constants

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Please clarify my doubt with respect to one examp I am giving regarding text element and constants.

I am building field catelog in ALV like below.

m_fieldcat '1' 'KUNNR' 'GI_FINAL_ITAB' text-002 '10' ' '.

To remove the hard coding (for examp 'KUNNR')in the above statement we can do 2 ways one way is declare constant with value KUNNR and other way is with text element value 'KUNNR' which method we have to approach considering performance and all?

Thanks&Regards

Hi,

In this case, its a field name, so u can any one constants or text elements.

But if you are going to give field descriptions, then text elements is the best option, because it can support multiple languages, as constants cannot be used for multiple languages, unless it is translated.

Hope its clear
