sapscript issue

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am dsiplaying the month name on the header of my sapscript form. I used the sapscript symbol '&NAMEOFMONTH&' to display it. Now, I need to display the next month's name.

For ex; generating the report using sapscript for current month april, i need to display the month name as 'May 2009' on the form?

How to enable the change in the form? I tried looking for a sapscript symbol for it. I did not find it.

Any ideas how to do it?

Thanks,

I don't think there is a standard symbol available.

You have to write a PERFORM in your SUb routine.

YOu have to pass the current date .

In your FORM, you can return the next month name.

In Script:

/: DEFINE &NEXT_MONTH& = '          '
/: PERFORM NEXT_MONTH IN PROGRAM Z_SAPSCRIPT_PERFORMS
/: USING &MONTH&
/: CHANGING &NEXT_MONTH&
/: ENDPERFORM

In program Z_SAPSCRIPT_PERFORMS

FORM NEXT_MONTH TABLES in_tab STRUCTURE itcsy

out_tab STRUCTURE itcsy.

data v_current_month(2).
data v_next_month(10).
READ TABLE in_tab INDEX 1.
v_current_month = in_tab-value.
case v_current_month.
when '01'.
v_next_month = 'February'.
when '02'.
v_next_month = 'March'.
when '03'.
v_next_month = 'April'.
when '04'.
v_next_month = 'May'.
when '05'.
v_next_month = 'June'.
when '06'.
v_next_month = 'July'.
when '07'.
v_next_month = 'August'.
when '08'.
v_next_month = 'September'.
when '09'.
v_next_month = 'October'.
when '10'.
v_next_month = 'November'.
when '11'.
v_next_month = 'December'.
when '12'.
v_next_month = 'January'.
endcase.

out_tab-value = V_next_month.
MODIFY out_tab INDEX 1.

ENDFORM.

You can use the FM MONTH_NAMES_GET too, or take month name directly from table T247.

Ravi,

I am having a problem with the parameters on the 'PERFORM' statement in sapscript. My 'PERFORM' statement in the program is PERFORM NEXT_MONTH. The program is fetching the current value. However in the sapscript while calling the PERFORM statement is causing the error 'TOO MANY PARAMETERS SPECIFIED WITH PERFORM'.

I shall try this statement.

PERFORM NEXT_MONTH IN PROGRAM ZSAP_PROGRAM CHANGING &NEXT_MONTH&

Does this look OK?

Thanks,

VG
