Selecting text fields using QUICKVIEWER

[former_member852447]

Hello Abap experts,

We have a large number of text fields in the database and the client wants to use QUICKVIEWER to retrieve many reports but cannot retrieve text fields because as far as I am aware you have to use a FM READ_TEXT to retrieve text.

Does anybody know any way that I can around this issue short of deleting all the text fields and creating a user field in the tables and adding the text to it.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi David,

If you want to use the text field in QUICKVIEWER and get text from SAP then create a BAPI by copying the logic of READ_TEXT as a ZBAPI READTEXT and create it as a remote enabled FM and use in QUICKVIEWER system.

I had same requirment in my project for informatica team.

they want to use the txt from SAP system.

Then i created a BAPI and they calle dthat BAPI in informatica programs and they are getting that text in informatica team.

Thanks

Hello Naresh,

This would be absolutely wonderful if I could do this as we thought it was impossible.

Please give me some clue as to how you would link the BAPI to the Quickviewer since I thought the Quickviewer could only join tables.

Thank you Sir

Hi David,

BAPI can be called from any Non-SAP system.

I had created a BAPI by copying the logic of READ_TEXT FM.

Informatica team called this BAPI in informatica system.

Thanks

Hello Naresh,

My client wants to call text using QUICKVIEWER so I was wondering how you could call a BAPI using QV. They want to join multiple tables and get the text that they can view on the SAP screen....we do not have a non-sap system...it is all SAP

Hope this can still be done

Thanks

Yes from any system you can call BAPI

But i don't know how to write in other systems.

But in my project Informatica people used that one.

It is also like joining tables and get the data .

they want text from SAP so i developed that BAPI FM
