Text Element in smartform not displaying value

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have come across a strange scenario wherein the variable in which i have the value to be displayed in the smartform is not being displayed in the text element. I have written the below code:

   DATA: ls_payment_terms TYPE coms_topis,
       ls_transferred_date type BDH_WRK.
*       ls_date type dats.

READ TABLE bdh_payment_terms INDEX 1 INTO ls_payment_terms.

ls_date = ls_payment_terms-days + BDH-TRANSFER_DATE.

I have given the output date as output parameters and I have declared it in global definition with type DATS.

Now that I have the value in ls_date, i have passed it on to the text element as <N6>&ls_date& </>.

However, this date is not getting displayed in the invoice. What could be the reason?please help.

Hi

Pls put break point in the Smartform function module for below statement and check the value of LS_DATE.

ls_date = ls_payment_terms-days + BDH-TRANSFER_DATE.

Thanks,

Hi,

     You must have written the text element 'ls_date manually,  In smartforms the variables have to be selected from Field List and drag to the window where we need to display.

Just open the window in which you want to display the 'ls_date', click on the General Attributes tab, click Ctrl+Shift+F4 to display Fields list(Left side bottom), from the Field List select the 'ls_date' field and drag into the window where you want to display..

Thanks & Regards

Hi Girdhari,

I debugged and Checked. The data is appearing in the variable. The code is written in the program lines in a window inside the smartform.

What it is displaying?????

Did u written those lines in EDITOR->command propmt right(insert command( like +ve symbol in left side)->symbol)?????

if you not written within command ,then new editor will take as text only.for ex &val& will display like &val& only,not the value of val.

Thank you

Hi Neena,

You Can check at below point.

1) check where u r calculating is_date. Is ur getting correct value . Write Breakpoint just before IS_DATE calculation.

ls_date = ls_payment_terms-days + BDH-TRANSFER_DATE.

2) Before printing check have u written any clear statement , It means check the value just before display .

3) don't write manually ls_date , try to drag from field list .

Once you check all above i think ur problem solved

Cheers
