CProjects Fields - Structures and field Controls

Hi,
On the Project -Additional Data tab on cProjects, we have a field which is called Project "Created by". I am trying to locate where is that field stored in the tables. I saw that under the field controls ,an external structure is maintained and this feild is available there but not sure how to view the data in that structure ( i guess we can't view this data as its under a structure).
Since we have the accounting integeration on, so when we transfer the Project ,the Projects gets created in the backend ( ECC) with a "created by" of the repsective cProjects server name.
All I am looking for is who created the Project ( as in cProjects) and the date on which it was created.
Thanks.

Hi,
The structure is DPR_TS_UI_PRJ_DATA.
If you need to get the values you should use method get_detail_data of class cl_dpr_ui_log_project_detail.

Field symbols and field groups

Hi friends plz send me the answer for this query:
What are field symbols and field groups.? what is the"component idx of structure" clause with field groups?

Hi,
A field group combines several existing fields together under one name
like
FIELD-GROUPS: fg.
then you can use one insert statement to insert values in fields of field-group.
INSERT f1 f2 ... INTO fg.
Field symbols
If u have experience with 'C', then understand this to be similar to a pointer.
It is used to reference another variable dynamically. So this field symbol will simply point to some other variable. and this pointer can be changed at runtime.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS>.
DATA FIELD VALUE 'X'.
ASSIGN FIELD TO <FS>.
WRITE <FS>.
Field symbols: are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
Field Groups:
A field group is a user-defined grouping of characteristics and basic key figures from the EC-EIS or EC-BP field catalog.
Use
The field catalog contains the fields that are used in the aspects. As the number of fields grows, the field catalog becomes very large and unclear. To simplify maintenance of the aspects, you can group fields in a field group. You can group the fields as you wish, for example, by subject area or responsibility area. A field may be included in several field groups.
When maintaining the data structure of an aspect, you can select the field group that contains the relevant characteristics and basic key figures. This way you limit the number of fields offered.

Field Symbols, Field String, and Field Group.

Hi,
Can you differentiate between filed symbols, field strings and field groups,
With regards,

Hi,
Field Symbols
Field symbols are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
Field symbols are similar to dereferenced pointers in C (that is, pointers to which the content operator * is applied). However, the only real equivalent of pointers in ABAP, that is, variables that contain a memory address (reference) and that can be used without the contents operator, are reference variables in ABAP Objects.
All operations programmed with field symbols are applied to the field assigned to it. For example, a MOVE statement between two field symbols moves the contents of the field assigned to the first field symbol to the field assigned to the second field symbol. The field symbols themselves point to the same fields after the MOVE statement as they did before.
You can create field symbols either without or with type specifications. If you do not specify a type, the field symbol inherits all of the technical attributes of the field assigned to it. If you do specify a type, the system checks the compatibility of the field symbol and the field you are assigning to it during the ASSIGN statement.
Field symbols provide greater flexibility when you address data objects:
If you want to process sections of fields, you can specify the offset and length of the field dynamically.
You can assign one field symbol to another, which allows you to address parts of fields.
Assignments to field symbols may extend beyond field boundaries. This allows you to address regular sequences of fields in memory efficiently.
You can also force a field symbol to take different technical attributes from those of the field assigned to it.
The flexibility of field symbols provides elegant solutions to certain problems. On the other hand, it does mean that errors can easily occur. Since fields are not assigned to field symbols until runtime, the effectiveness of syntax and security checks is very limited for operations involving field symbols. This can lead to runtime errors or incorrect data assignments.
While runtime errors indicate an obvious problem, incorrect data assignments are dangerous because they can be very difficult to detect. For this reason, you should only use field symbols if you cannot achieve the same result using other ABAP statements.
For example, you may want to process part of a string where the offset and length depend on the contents of the field. You could use field symbols in this case. However, since the MOVE statement also supports variable offset and length specifications, you should use it instead. The MOVE statement (with your own auxiliary variables if required) is much safer than using field symbols, since it cannot address memory beyond the boundary of a field. However, field symbols may improve performance in some cases.

Syntax Diagram
FIELD-SYMBOLS
Basic form
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs>.
Extras:
1. ... TYPE type
2. ... TYPE REF TO cif
3. ... TYPE REF TO DATA
4. ... TYPE LINE OF type
5. ... LIKE s
6. ... LIKE LINE OF s
7. ... TYPE tabkind
8. ... STRUCTURE s DEFAULT wa
The syntax check performed in an ABAP Objects context is stricter than in other ABAP areas. See Cannot Use Untyped Field Symbols ad Cannot Use Field Symbols as Components of Classes.
Effect
This statement declares a symbolic field called <fs>. At runtime, you can assign a concrete field to the field symbol using ASSIGN. All operations performed with the field symbol then directly affect the field assigned to it.
You can only use one of the additions.
Example
Output aircraft type from the table SFLIGHT using a field symbol:
FIELD-SYMBOLS <PT> TYPE ANY.
DATA SFLIGHT_WA TYPE SFLIGHT.
ASSIGN SFLIGHT_WA-PLANETYPE TO <PT>.
WRITE <PT>.
Addition 1
... TYPE type
Addition 2
... TYPE REF TO cif
Addition 3
... TYPE REF TO DATA
Addition 4
... TYPE LINE OF type
Addition 5
... LIKE s
Addition 6
... LIKE LINE OF s
Addition 7
... TYPE tabkind
Effect
You can define the type of the field symbol using additions 2 to 7 (just as you can for FORM parameters (compare Defining the Type of Subroutine Parameters). When you use the ASSIGN statement, the system carries out the same type checks as for USING parameters of FORMs.
This addition is not allowed in an ABAP Objects context. See Cannot Use Obsolete Casting for FIELD SYMBOLS.
In some cases, the syntax rules that apply to Unicode programs are different than those for non-Unicode programs. See Defining Types Using STRUCTURE.
Effect
Assigns any (internal) field string or structure to the field symbol from the ABAP Dictionary (s). All fields of the structure can be addressed by name: <fs>-fieldname. The structured field symbol points initially to the work area wa specified after DEFAULT.
The work area wa must be at least as long as the structure s. If s contains fields of the type I or F, wa should have the structure s or at least begin in that way, since otherwise alignment problems may occur.
Example
Address components of the flight bookings table SBOOK using a field symbol:
DATA SBOOK_WA LIKE SBOOK.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <SB> STRUCTURE SBOOK
DEFAULT SBOOK_WA.
WRITE: <SB>-BOOKID, <SB>-FLDATE.

Difference between Field symbols and field group

Hi experts,
Can you please advice me what is the difference between field symbols and field groups.
Thanks in advance,
Logu.

Field symbols: are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
Field Groups:
A field group is a user-defined grouping of characteristics and basic key figures from the EC-EIS or EC-BP field catalog.
Use
The field catalog contains the fields that are used in the aspects. As the number of fields grows, the field catalog becomes very large and unclear. To simplify maintenance of the aspects, you can group fields in a field group. You can group the fields as you wish, for example, by subject area or responsibility area. A field may be included in several field groups.
When maintaining the data structure of an aspect, you can select the field group that contains the relevant characteristics and basic key figures. This way you limit the number of fields offered.

Need your assistance in mapping Structure and Field in DME Tree

Hello Friends - I need your help in "Mapping from structure field" in DME.
In the existing format tree, It is mapped Structure as "FPAYP" and Field name "BNAME" to populate Company Code name in the Payment file.
Now I am asked to change this to populate value either from OX02 or OX15.
When Company Code name was maintained, It was maintained in short and in the address tab, Full name is maintained.
Please let me know which Structue and Field I should assign to pull the value either from OX02 or OX15.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks a lot Henri/Lakshmi.
I have maintained mapping procedure Sturecture/field - FPAYHX/AUST1 to get the CoCd name in the file. In AUST1, Length of the CoCd is more than 18, and as per Bank format, It should be 18 characters in length.
User is not happy that complete CoCd name is not populated in the file. He has come up with an alternative and shortened the CoCd name that needs to be populated in the file and suggested us to get the value into the payment file. We should not replace CoCd name with the name he suggested in OX02/OX15,FBZP.
My doubt is that if there is any filed I can use to maintain the name he suggested and assign it in mapping procedure.
Thanks

Archiving: Info-structures and field catalogues

Hi there.
My question concerns the field catalogues which are used to configure info-structures for archiving objects.
As far as I understand it, I can only run reports via the Archive Explorer on the fields which I have included in the info-structure for an archiving object - is this correct? Or can I only use the fields in the info-structure for selection, but display all fields available in the archive-object?
As a last question: Can I create field catalogues with theoretically all of the available fields of an archiving object?
Thank you very much.
Andreas

Hello Andreas,
The fields that are transferred from the field catalog into the infostructure are used to assist with selecting the relevant archived data. The infostructure will contain the fields that have been transferred, plus the archive file name and the offset of where the archived data is stored. This gives you access to all of the data that was archived.
Technically, you can create a field catalog and relevant infostructure with all of the available fields, but I would not recommend that approach. The infostructure is a table in the database. So, the more fields that are used, the bigger this table will become and may defeat the purpose of archiving the data in the first place :-).
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Karin Tillotson

HR - dynamic selections field name and field value in the program

HI all,
I am using dynamic selections for a HR report.
I have created a view with 20 fields and added it to HR report category ___00003(All fields suppressed).
I need to check these fields in the program. But i am not able to get the field name and value in the program for dynamic selections fields.
Please let me know how to get the field names and values in the program for dynamic selections .
Thanks,
Kranthi.

You have to read the itab pnpdynse in your Program to obtain the Dynamic Selection values. This itab has a deep structure.. you can set a break point in one of the events before get pernr & in the debug mode, you will able to display the itab pnpdynse.. you can then identify how to get the values into your code..

Dynamically assigning field name and field value

Hi all,
logic:
select field1 field2 from table into workarea.
workarea-field1 will have value as 'MATNR' or 'BUKRS' or 'KUNNR' or............etc
workarea-field1 will have values as '10000025' or '2010' or '102536' or ............etc
Now i need to dynamically assign MATNR = 10000025
or BUKRS =2010
or KUNNR = 102536
HOW CAN WE DO THIS.

Hi,
Use the ASSIGN COMPONENT statement.
