Dynamic Function Module call with table parameter?

Question

Hi All,
I'm trying to call FMs dynamically with PARAMETER-TABLE. These FMs are mainly about searching data from inputs and returning internal table as outputs. I managed to pass data into import parameters as query conditions, but still failed to set tables parameter. The code is like below, could you please help me check what's the problem? Thank you very much!!
data: lv_val type RS38L_TYP value 'ls_service_para-fmparam'.
data: lt_interface TYPE rsfbintfv,
           ls_import_para TYPE rsfbpara,
           ptab TYPE abap_func_parmbind_tab,
           ptab_line TYPE abap_func_parmbind,
           ref_wa type ref to data.
Field-symbols: <fs> type any,
CALL METHOD cl_fb_function_utility=>meth_get_interface
       EXPORTING
         im_name             = LV_FM          "FM name
       IMPORTING
         ex_interface        = lt_interface
       EXCEPTIONS
         error_occured       = 1
         object_not_existing = 2
         OTHERS              = 3.
***loop IMPORT parameters and fill in data from lt_params***
loop at  lt_interface-import into ls_import_para.
     read table lt_params into ls_param with key key = ls_import_para-parameter.  "check if exists query value
    if sy-subrc = 0 and ls_param-value is not initial.
          assign (lv_val) to <fs>.
           <fs> = ls_param-value.
          create data ref_wa type (ls_import_para-STRUCTURE).
          assign ref_wa->* to <fs2>.
           <fs2> = <fs>.  UNASSIGN: <fs>,<fs2>.
           ptab_line-name = ls_import_para-PARAMETER.
           ptab_line-value = ref_wa.
           ptab_line-kind = abap_func_exporting.
          insert ptab_line into table ptab.
     endif.
endloop.
***loop at TABLE parameters to retrieve data from FM***
loop at lt_interface-TABLES into ls_import_para.
     create data ref_wa type (ls_import_para-STRUCTURE).
      ptab_line-tables_wa = ref_wa.     "set data type
      ptab_line-name = ls_import_para-PARAMETER.
      ptab_line-kind = abap_func_tables.
     insert ptab_line into table ptab. "if commented, no exception occurs,but I cannot get any dataset.
endloop.
CALL FUNCTION LV_FM PARAMETER-TABLE ptab.
if I execute the code, when there has TABLES parameter defined in the FM, I get CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_MISSING exception with runtime error DATREF_NOT_ASSIGNED. But in debug mode, as shown in the screen shot attached, I did see the field TABLES_WA has correct type. So maybe I misunderstand the usage of PARAMETER-TABLE. Does anyone has experience on it?
Best Regards,

Hi Rama,
Yes, I'm not passing value to the table parameter, but that parameter is where I want to retrieve data from FM, not pass value to, so I don't assign any value to ptab_line-value for that parameter.
BTW, I just did some test to pass value to the parameter using the following code and still got CALL_FUNCTION_PARM_MISSING exception:
FM: ZLEAD_CONTACT
parameters:
IMPORT:  I_PARTNER TYPE BUT000-PARTNER mandatory
TABLES: OT_CONT LIKE ZLEAD_INFO_S optional (here ZLEAD_INFO_S is a flat structure)
ptab_line-name = ls_import_para-PARAMETER.
ptab_line-kind = abap_func_tables.
create data ref_type type table of (ls_import_para-STRUCTURE).
ptab_line-tables_wa = ref_wa.
ptab_line-value = ref_type.
The detail of ptab:
VALUE
TABLES_WA
KIND
NAME
->2000000025
{A:initial}
10
2000000025
->Standard Table[0x10(588)]
->Structure: flat & not charlike
30
OT_CONT
And the same error if I set parameter using below code:
create data ref_wa type RS38L_TYP.
assign ref_wa->* to <fs>.
<fs> = ls_import_para-STRUCTURE.
ptab_line-tables_wa = ref_wa.
The detail of ptab:
VALUE

{A:initial}
