Hi,

It is used when we have to pass internal tables.

Yes. U can use them to send some data to the FM ...

[Former Member]

Yes they can be used as Export Parameters with a set of records.

Eg:

Define I_ITAB1 for Import Parameters

Define E_ITAB2 for Export Parameters

Basically you need to populate the Export table with the values which you need for O/P.

Hope this helps.

hi.,

tables in FMs will act as both Export/Import parameters.

depends up on the situations.

it will take the input as table and returns the processed data in the same parameter(internal table).

Reward poionts if useful

Hi,

Yes , they can be as export parameters as well.

In case the function module needs data from these tables then they will be given to the function module , by having those tables as export parameters in the function module.

Reward if helpful.

hi ,

generally we use structures for displaying the tables through the fm .. here is an example code where i used the tables and exporting parameters.....check this....
