What are internal table fields?

hi sdn,
Somebody asked me what are the internal table fields?

hi,
data or varaibles that u declare inside the internal table are internal table fields
eg
BEGIN OF itab_final       ,                         "OCCURS 0 ,
        mtart   LIKE mara-mtart ,
        wwghb1 LIKE t023d-wwghb , " DIVISION DESCRIPTION
        wwgha   LIKE t023d-wwgha ,   " MAJOR CATEGORY
        wwghb   LIKE t023d-wwghb ,   " MAJOR CATEGORY DESCRIPTION
        wwgpa   LIKE t023d-wwgpa ,   " CATEGORY
        matkl   LIKE mara-matkl ,   " MERCHANDISE CATEGORY
        ean11   LIKE mara-ean11 ,   " International Article Number (EAN/UPC)
        numtp   LIKE mara-numtp ,
END OF itab_final .
    mtart wwghb1    wwgha     wwghb    wwgpa   matkl        ean11     numtp . these are internal table fields

Regarding Internal Table Field Validation [Modification]

Hi All,
I have a small issue with formatting of a field.
The Field is POTX1 - it would get the value as 'New MT-EPPE0097-COMP02',
Means i have one internal table field as i_error-POTX1 in that some times we get value as 'New MT-EPPE0097-COMP02'.
Whenever i get 'New' literal in that internal table field i have to remove that literal from that internal table field. And Left Justify the remaining part of the field.
Ex: 'New MT-EPPE0097-COMP02'
     should become 'MT-EPPE0097-COMP02'.
For this first i have to find wether 'New' Literal exists in the Internal table field or not then i have to remove it.
Can anybody tell me how can i solve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeezuddin.

Hi,
Take a look :
loop at i_error.
if i_error-potx1(3) = 'New'
    w_potx1 = i_error-potx1.
    i_error-potx1 = w_potx1+3(37).
    MODIFY i_error.
endif.
ENDLOOP.

Erwan.

Assigning value to Field - Symbol ( which is type of internal table field )

Hi All,
I am facing problem to assign the value to a field symbol. My requirement is creating a dynamic internal table and populate values into that internal table, so that i can display the values .
I am having a structure with fields like status , Plant1 name , Plant2 name.....Plant n .
So i declared an internal table it_tab with this structure.
I am having one more table which having number of records for Plant1 ,Plant 2 ,....Plant n based on some condition.
I need to count the number of records for Plant1 and i need to put in the internal table it_tab.
For this i created field-symbol .
Here, t_deployment table will have the plants 1,2,3...and
 t_devobject will have some records for these plants.
LOOP AT T_DEPLOYMENT.
clear w_count.
LOOP AT T_DEVOBJECT WHERE ZDEPLOYMENT = T_DEPLOYMENT-DOMVALUE_L AND
 ZADSTATUS = '10'.
w_count = w_count + 1.
ENDLOOP.
concatenate 'it_tab-' t_deployment-domvalue_l into var_bet_name.
assign var_bet_name to <bet_var_name>.
now my internal table field i.e. it_tab-plant1 came into <bet_var_name> . But i want to assign a value for it.
at last what i need is it_tab-plant1 = w_count.
whaterver the w_count has value that needs to assign to it_tab-plant1. But i don't want to assign directly it it_tab-plant1. I want to assign dynamically. Because tommorrow some more plants added to t_deployments , i don't want to make changes to my program. It should take care....w/o changing the program.
I tried the following statement.
(<bet_var_name>) = w_count. But its not working.
Please let me know how i can get this.
Thanks in Advance.
Pavan.

Hi pavan,
As ur requirement is creating a dynamic internal table,
try the following way,
remember the fieldcat should be of type LVC not SLIS.
BUILD LT_LVCFIELDCAT in a way that, the value from the internal table becomes the fieldname
ex:-
loop at it_models INTO WA_MODELS.
 LS_LVCFIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = WA_models-MODEL.
 LS_LVCFIELDCAT-SELTEXT = WA_models-MODEL.
append ls_lvcfieldcat to lt_lvcfieldcat.
endloop.
DATA: DREF TYPE REF TO DATA,WA_REF TYPE REF TO DATA.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <TEMP_TAB> TYPE TABLE, <TEMP_WA> TYPE ANY.
CALL METHOD CL_ALV_TABLE_CREATE=>CREATE_DYNAMIC_TABLE
 EXPORTING
 IT_FIELDCATALOG = LT_LVCFIELDCAT
 IMPORTING
 EP_TABLE = DREF.
ASSIGN dref->* TO <TEMP_TAB>.
now basing on the fieldcatalog <temp_tab> is build.
NOW FILL <TEMP_TAB>.
WHILE FILLING, ASSIGN COMPONENT IDX/NAME.....
this statement will be very usefull.
i hope this will be help full.
pls reward the points if it helps u.

Hyma

How to populate dynamic internal table fields with data??

Hi Folks,
How to assign a particular internal table field to a dynamically assigned internal table?
I have an excel sheet, and i upload the excel sheet data into an internal IT_EXLOAD table using FM ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
Now i created a dynamic internal table which has the same column as in my DB table.
I have to fill the dynamically created Internal table with the IT_EXLOAD data dynamically.
Suppose in future if i add some field in DB table and for that field if i add some column in excel sheet there is no need to change in the program.
Looking for reply...
Best Regards,
Sayak

hi,
CALL FUNCTION 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'

*declare intern_tmp as internal table tb_data in wich you want the data
*and declare a field symbol <fs_123>
LOOP AT intern.
 ASSIGN COMPONENT intern-col OF STRUCTURE
 intern_tmp TO <fs_123>.
 IF NOT <fs_123> IS ASSIGNED.
 CLEAR intern.
 CLEAR intern_tmp.
 CONTINUE.
 ENDIF.

An internal table field has been defined too small

Hi,
We are getting a dump when trying to get the Financial Statements.
The error in the dump is u201CAn internal table field has been defined too smallu201D.
The field with the problem is u201CYou should define the field "HSL03" larger in program "SAPLFAGL_GLT0".The maximum size allowed for fields of type P is 16 (31 digits).
Itu2019s caused by a list of documents where the exchange rate must to be u201D/699,94001u201D but it was entered without the forward slash and it caused very big numbers
The biggest number in one document is 99,401,074,527.31 USD
The sum of all them is 13,008,701,915,208.50
Any ideas to fix this?
Thanks in advance
Jorge

have you reversed those documents with fb08 and post it with the correct exchange rate???
have you searched in SMP for similar problems - I think you've to correct the DB-values- but only in agreement with your audit firm / revision

Accessing Dynamic Internal table fields

Hello All,
I have one internal table ep_tabx having 138 columns whose data is getting displayed
by using function module reuse_alv_grid_display.
Now my query is, i have created one custom button on the appl toolbar to download ep_tabx data.
IF the user changes the the layout of the output at runtime and then presses that custom button
then i have created one dynamic internal table using call method cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table suppose <dyn_table> whose struc will be that of
dynamic fieldcatalog returned by using FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_LAYOUT_INFO_GET.
And then I have put a loop on the int table ep_tabx and move corresponding to the int table
<dyn_table>. But when i download the <dyn_table> data through GUI_DOWNLOAD the
date fields data is not getting downloaded correctly. I have 4 date fields in my ep_tabx.
In the alv grid output the date is getting displayed like 08/30/2004(ie mon/date/yr) but in download
file it comes like 20040830(ie yr/mon/date and that too without /).How to access the dynamic
internal tables fields separately so asto convert them in the pgm before the download.
Kindly Help.
Thanks in advance.
Mansi

Hi,
Search in SDN you would get loads of info on accessing dynamic itab's .
in order to convert your date format use WRITE stmt to convert the value in your itab before passing it to download FM.

Regarding passing blank characters to internal table field

Hi All,
I have small issue.
Actual issue is
I am having one internal table field as oper_table-arbid in the program i will actually pass first 4 characters of that field into another internal table i_download_operation-arbid.
Then if oper_table-arbid is blank i need to pass
4 blank characters into i_download_operation-arbid.
Can anybody tell me how can i do it.
Code is like this
IF oper_table-arbid NE space.
MOVE oper_table-arbid+0(4) TO i_download_operation-arbid.
ELSE.
I need to pass 4 blank char's to i_download_operation-arbid
ENDIF.
oper_table-arbid is of 8 char length & i_download_operation-arbid is of 4 char length.
Can any body tell me what i need to do here.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

hi ,
shaik.
data: var(8) type c value 'abcdefgh'.
 write var.
data: bar(8) type c value 'ijkl',
 p1(8) .
 move bar to p1.
 write:/ p1 right-justified.
just execute the program and see the o/p.
if u r trying to pass character then default position is left-justfied .
so u need to explicitly say right-justified so it will take positions 5,6,7,8.
so here u need append blank spaces .
after seeing the o/p u will hav a clear picture .

How to specify for a internal table field so that number of digits = 9

In if condition how can i specify that
if country = 'US'
then the account number should be equal to 9 digits only.
<removed_by_moderator>
Edited by: Julius Bussche on Aug 6, 2008 1:41 PM

You can set the internal table field to the biggest length possible, according to your requirements, and then work on something like the following. If the condition is met and you have to shorten the account number... try something similar to this:
DATA e TYPE string VALUE 'Test string'.
* I'm using 2 as an example here.
SHIFT e BY 2 PLACES RIGHT CIRCULAR.
SHIFT e BY 2 PLACES LEFT.
WRITE :/, e.

Junk values in an internal table field

Hi,
I have an internal table with a field matnr and matxt.
Now both the fields have a junk value '#'.
matnr has '#' at the end and matxt has '#' in between the description.
How do I get rid of them.
Michael

if in description "#' occurs many times.
then split the description into one internal table
like
data: begin of it occurs 0,
fld(50),
end of it.
data : text(100).
data : ch(50).
ch = 'teygvwsjsf#wewew#wqdhfd#jdhgfd'.
split ch at '#' into table it.
loop at it.
concatenate it-ch into text sperated by space.
endloop.
u will get the string in variable text after the loop.
