Hi,

is correct the following statement?

If I have to create a report, is better work on table fields instead of structure fields and only

if I don't find the tables I need I can create my report with values contained in a structure.

I'm asking this 'cause when I ask to an ABAPER a report giving him the related fields of a structure

he immediately tell me that is not possible working taking data from fields of a structure.

Yours truly

HI,

Structure does not contain any values. So you have to get the data from tables or views.

HI

Structures are just a skeleton of the fields / data types.They are just like a framework. They themselves do not contain any entries. (values to the fields). The entries can be created/ stored in tables only.

hi

good

you can use both table and structure to create a report, but the issue here is a strucutre doesn't contain any value and table contain table, yes if you r using a strucuter and you can take referance of a table and using that you can get your data display in the output of the report.

thanks
