Adobe Print Form: Printing Nested Internal Tables

Hi All,
We are developing an Adobe print form
We are getting data in 3 internal tables (say ITAB1, ITAB2, ITAB3)
Now we need to print the data as follows (data can overflow into multiple pages)
Record of ITAB1.........
   Record of ITAB2
   Record of ITAB2
   Record of ITAB3
   Record of ITAB3
So for 1 record of ITAB1 there can be >1 records in ITAB2 and ITAB3. We have the data in the correct format and all internal tables have a common key field to link. But we don't know how to render this onto a form
Please advise
Thanks and Regards,
Aditya

It is possible, in the context itself you have to define them nested
parent
  -> childtable   "here you can specify the where condition also
   -> subchildtable
The Crucial part is design , in the design you have to take care of Binding , Postioned, Flowed parts and Repeat Row option(make sure for all the tables forms Repeat row option marked).

  • What are nested Internal tables

    Hi Guru's,
    I am new to ABAP ...just trying to learn things.Can you please explain me what are nested internal tables and what is the purpose of nested internal table?where can it be used and why a header line is not written in a Nested Internal table...
    Kindly explain it (scenario where nested internal tables are used) with an example it will be helpful.
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    When storing data in internal tables, you often use one internal table for each database you read.
    Each one contains some or all columns of the relevant database table. It is up to you whether
    you create an internal table with a flat structure for each database table or if you create, for
    example, internal tables with nested structures. If you have several tables, each one with a flat
    structure, you have to work with redundant key fields to link the tables. If, on the other hand, you
    use nested internal tables, you can store the data from the database tables hierarchically.
    Saving and processing very large amounts of data in internal tables has disadvantages. If you
    divide up the data into different internal tables, processing it can be very runtime-intensive, since
    the tables have to be processed individually. Furthermore, it requires a lot of storage space,
    since internal tables are not stored in compressed form. The system may even need to store the
    dataset outside of its working memory. This means that processing it takes even longer.
    An example of nested internal table:
    Assume the following program is linked to the logical database [Page 1163] F1S.

    Hi,
    I think nested and deep structure internal tables will not work with gui_download.

    Hi
    I dont think this requirement is possible. Even if we pass the data through the nested internal table the FM may not give a dump. The main problem will be with field catalog. How can we build field catalog for the fields inside the nested internal table.
    Field catalog for this FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY should be of type SLIS_FIELDCAT_ALV and this is a standard one.

    As you can see I personally prefer pointers to field symbols - I don't believe there is any performance differences and because of my background in other languages pointers make more sense to me.

  • Nested Internal tables with cl_gui_alv_grid - not displaying records

    Hi,
    I wrote a program using nested internal tables with cl_gui_alv_grid class
    At runtime, when I select dropdown on one of the cells (RESWK - driver to the nested table), it does not bring the related record and display it
    Does cl_gu_alv_grid support nested internal tables?
    Or which class to use

  • How to create dynamic nested internal table

    Hi Experts,
    Pleae tell me or give sample code, how to create dynamic nested internal table ?
    I have seen threads saying creation of dynamic internal tables using some table structure only. But now the requirement is to create dynamic nested internal table.
    For example the internal table contains two fields viz., one is field1 of dynamic internal table and other is normal field2 and values as shown below:
    Nested internal table:
    field1                     |     field2 ...
    <table content1>     |     value2..
    <table content1>     |     value2..
    Here the [table content] should also a dynamic internal table.

    Hi Sudhir,
    You have to use OLE for this.
    Using OLE you can set properties of column and sheet like border,width,font etc.
    an also you can format cells(For leading zeros).
    Search SCN for OLE exmples, you will get a lot.

  • SMART FORMS- data from  internal table issue

    Hi ,
           I have a smart form in which I have to print three types of materials of Material Types say M1, M2 ,M3.

                t_M3
    The Number of FIELDS vary in all the tables ,thats why I have created 3 internal tables for Diff Material Types.

  • How to binnding the data in the adobe interactive forms for making a table?

    Hi, experts,
    Function:
    Through the sharing context node between adobe interactive form and a WDA for ABAP, display the data of the sflight_node in the ADOBE.
    version:
    Acrobat Reader 8.1.0
    currently both of the SAP-ABA and SAP-BASIS SP level: 9
    ADS : Successful.
    The following is my action:
    1.     Create a interface (Z_SFLIGHT_INTF) with a attribute node (SFLIGHT_NODE) that type is "sflight"  using the transaction code "sfp"
    2.     Create a form (Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) using the transaction code "sfp" with the interface Z_SFLIGHT_INTF.
    3.     Trag the sflight_node in the Z_SFLIGHT_INTF to the form( Z_SFLIGHT_FORM).
    4.     Open the layout tab in the form(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM), and create a table(table1). Click the table created just now, select the binding tab in the object tab, and in the Default Binding, select the SFLIGHT_NODE under the Z_SFLIGHT_FORM.
    Problem 1:
    Do you tell me whether is right for binding the context SFLIGHT_NODE using this way? If bind 3 context attributes in the sflight, how can I do it?
    5.     Create a WDA for abap (ZZ_02_SFLIGHT), and create a view(MAINVIEW) using transaction code "se80" in the sap-gui with adobe interactive form. Set the templatesource(Z_SFLIGHT_FORM) in the  adobe interactive form properties and saved, and then, datasource is "MAINVIEW_Z_SFLIGHT_FORM" automatically.
    6.     But I only found the attribute SFLIGHT_NODE under the context node(Z_SFLIGHT_NODE), and  I don't found the NODE ( SFLIGHT_NODE ) context in the context tab in the WDA for abap so that I don't set data to the context NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE).
    Problem 2:
    Do you tell me what can I do it so that I get the node SFLIGHT_NODE rather than attribute in the WDA for setting the data to the CONTEXT NODE (SFLIGHT_NODE)?
    Thanks a lot.

    E.g.:
    field-symbols: <text> type COMT_PRSHTEXT_X.

  • Problem in assigning field symbol to a nested internal table

    Hi All,
    I have searched the forum but could not find a solution to this problem. I have a requirement where I need to define an internal table within an internal table, so I have used pointer within the outer internal table(itab2) which point to the inner table. However, I am facing problem while assigning the pointer.
    data: begin of struct1 occurs 0,
            fld3(10) type C,
           end of struct1.
    data: begin of itab2 occurs 0,
            fld1(10) type C,
            fld2(10) type C,
            p_inner like ref to struct1,
          end of itab2.
    field-symbols <inner_table> type any.
    I want to assign "itab2->p_inner->* " to "<inner_table>".
    However, the following statement is Not working:
    assign itab2->p_inner->* to <inner_table>.
    I want to fill the values within fields fld1, fld2 and fld3 and append it in itab2.
    The final table should be like:
    ITAB2:
    fld1    fld2    fld3
    aa      bb      cc

    Thanks Matt,
    But how do I append the values within this internal table ??
    When I am using the following code:
    ls_wa-fld3 = 'A'.
    ls_wa-t_in-fld1 = 'B'.
    ls_wa-t_in-fld2 = 'C'.
    ls_wa-t_in-fld1 = 'D'.
    ls_wa-t_in-fld2 = 'E'.
    append ls_wa to lt_tab.
    Its giving an error that:
    The data object "LS_WA" does not have a component called "T_IN-FLD1".
    I wanted the values to be appended in the following way in lt_tab:
    fld3     fld1     fld2
    A     B     C
         D     E
    Please help.
