Pass internal tables in Export Parameters of Function Module

Hi
How to pass internal tables through export parametes of the calling function module. i
think i can pass it by reference ....
if so can anyone suggest how to do it?

Hi,
You can Export values of an Internal table in two ways, by :
1) specifying in Tables tab
(Not recommended since it's an obsolete in ECC 6.0)
If used, will reduce the performance of the FM
Tables are always passed by reference
2) specifying in Exports tab.
The parameter should be a Table type (created in se11)
having a Line type that refers to the structure of the data.
Pass by Value is not used for Normal Function modules.
Used usually for RFC enabled FMs.
Cheers,
Remi

Accessing internal table of main program inside function module...

I have function module say ZFUNC and main program say ZMAIN and internal table defined as IT_TAB inside ZMAIN but not passed as parameter to Function module ZFUNC.
If I want to access the field value of IT_TAB of main program ZMAIN inside ZFUNC during debugging then, I simply put (ZMAIN)IT_TAB-amount in ABAP debugger and then change it when the debugger is inside ZFUNC.
How can I write code to change the value of internal table of main program in function module ZFUNC instead of doing in debugger ? I guess I have to use some field symbols, but not sure. Please suggest.
Regards,
Rajesh.

Yes, you do need to use a field symbol. Say for example, you had a internal table called IMARC in your program and you want to access it later in a funciton module, you would do something like this.
data: xmarc type marc.
field-symbols: <imarc> type marc_upl_tt.
* Assign an internal table
field = '(ZPROGRAM_NAME)IMARC[]'.
assign (field) to <imarc>.
loop at <imarc> into xmarc.
write: / xmarc-matnr, xmarc-werks.
endloop.

Difference between Import and Export parameters in Function Module

Hi All,
I am unclear about the import and export parameters, when i create a function module. Can anyone explain abt this. However when i call the function module in any program the import parameters in Function module are displayed as exporting in program amd the export parameters as importing.
Any help on this would be appericiated.
Shejal.

HI,
Import parameter in FM is the value u provide to FM for processing.
export is the value u get from FM after processing.
when u call a FM in a progam the import parameter will appear as Export bcos u r giving value to the FM.
and u r getting value from FM in import parameter(bcos u r importing).

(internal) Tables obsolete as parameter in function modules,

Hi
As you probably can see by the question, my ABAP Knowledge isn't exactly overwhelming !
anyway:
I'm trying to create a function module in NW2004s, This functionmodule should take an internal table, based on a structure as (import) parameter.
In the earlier version, I've done this by defining it under the TAB 'Tables' in the function builder - But know its telling me that "Tables Parameters are obsolete", and that I should define it under "Changing" instead.
I have tried that, but I'm only allowed to pass a single line, and if I try to do a Loop, in the function module, it tells me that ity isn't created as an internal table.
So please - what is the "best practice" here ?
Regards
Morten Nielsen

Hi All,
I followed Steps 1 and 2 but when I use the following select statement I get a dump with the error enclosed.
Step1. Created a structure ZDFKKCOHI which is a replica of DFKKCOHI.
Step2. Created a table type ZDFKKCOHITABLE with line type as ZDFKKCOHI.
Step3. In my function module I have a changing parameter ZDFKKCOHIPARAM of type ZDFKKCOHITABLE.
Step 4. When I use the following select clause I am getting a dump.
DATA: wa_zdfkkcohi LIKE LINE OF zdfkkcohiparam.
SELECT *
FROM dfkkcohi
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE zdfkkcohiparam
WHERE cotyp EQ zcotyp
AND gpart EQ zgpart
AND corr_status EQ zcorr_status.
LOOP AT zdfkkcohiparam INTO wa_zdfkkcohi.
*Move IT_ZDFKKCOHI to ZDFKKCOHIOUT.
*Append ZDFKKCOHIOUT.
*Clear IT_ZDFKKCOHI.
ENDLOOP.
What could be wrong?
Thanks for all your help in advance.

Need of Changing Parameters in Function Module

Hi All,
Why we need sepearte Import and Export parameters in Function Module if the Changing Parameters
acts as both import and export parameters.
What is the use of using Changing Parametrs in Function Module.
Thanks in advance.
Sundaresan

Hi,
EXPORT PARAMETERS: When u r passing some value to the function, and the parameter will not be changed in the function, we use export parameter. Example: u pass parameter (a : 10) to a function, even after the function has been executed, value of a will be 10 only.
IMPORT PARAMETER: When u require some value back from the function. u do not provide any initial value to the function. Example : u pass a parameter (b: <blank>) to the function, function returns the same import parameter as (b : 20).
CHANGING PARAMETER: When u pass some value to the function and that function may change that value inside function, then changing parameters are used. Example: u pass parameter ( c: 30) to the function as changing parameter and function modifies this variable and return ( c: 50).
Reward points if helpful.
Thanks & Regards

Passing values to an InternalTable in a Function Module from WebDynpro

Hi,
I have created a model from a function module that has a internal table.I have assigned the value as a String to the datamodel context element of the internal table as a Line in the node that represents the input for the funtion module.The internal table accepts a value as an input.When i call the execute method on the input node i am not able to pass the value from the Webdynpro to the function module.I have also checked the assignment of the value as a String to the datamodel context element of the internal table as a Line in the node that represents the input for the funtion module and the value was assigned.
If you can provide me any info on how to pass the internal table from Webdynpro to the function module will be very helpful ..???
Thanks In Advance,
Varma.

Hi Rajendra,
what u can pass to a function module is the parameter which are in import and tables of RFC .so u have to declare a variable as a type of your internal table which may be type of structure or table. then in your RFC u have to copy that into a variable of function module and go for ur logic ...

Passing internal tables as parameters to subroutines

Hi,
This was going to be a question but I just had it answered by someone. Hopefully, this piece of information is going to be useful to other people as well.
I had a subroutine in my code which looks like this.
form fr_sub_get_data USING uf_file
TABLES ct_int_log STRUCTURE zinterface_log.
endform.
I was told by someone at work to change it as follows: -
form fr_sub_get_data USING uf_file
CHANGING ct_int_log type ty_tab_int_log.
endform.
The reason is that when using the tables' clause to pass internal tables as parameters, a header line is automatically created in the subroutine which lasts for as long as the subroutine is being excecuted. Its considered to be a bad practise to use header lines (Work-Areas are preferable).
Another important point to remember is that the 'tables' clause can only be used to pass standard internal tables as parameters. It can not be used for internal tables of other types.
Cheers!

Passing Internal tables to Workflow

Hello all,
I learning workflow and have a small doubt related to passing internal table as parameter to workflow when it is triggered by a report program explicitely.
I wrote a prog to upload data from flat file into internal table and by passing this ITAB to the workflow for futher processing. Actually i succeeded in this with only one field in my flat file (lfa1-lifnr).
what if my flat file contains more than one field? (i.e., lifnr, name1, city, county) how should i declare the parameters for my EVENT (triggering event) and same with my container declaration?
Any inputs in this regards are welcome.
Thank you in advance,
Lakshmi Narayana

Hi Lakshmi,
Create Workflow container
swc_container lt_container.
swc_create_container lt_container.
Fill internal table with data
The container type and the internal table type should be same, U can use a structure to define both.
Declare a structure with all the fields.
Define a conatiner of same type of structure in worklow and set it in wait for event setp.
swc_set_table lt_container '<container_name>' lit_int_data.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'

PASSING INTERNAL TABLE

I CREATED INTERNAL TABLE ITAB WITH 2 FIELDS EBELN , BUKRS.
I WANT TO USE FUNCTION MODULE .
I CAN PASS EBELN , BUKRS AS EXPORT PARAMETERS .
HOW CAN I PASS ITAB TO FUNCTION MODULE . SHOULD I DECLARE OF TYPE ITAB IN EXPORT PARAMETER LIST IN FUNCTION MODULE .....
I DECLARED JTAB TYPE ITAB IN EXPORT PARAMETER . BUT WHEN I AM WRITING QUERY IN THE SOURCE CODE OF FUNCTION MODULE , IT IS NOT IDENTIFYING JTAB AS THE INTERNAL TABLE .
I WANT TO PROCESS SOME DATA AND EXPORT JTAB BACK TO ABAP PROGRAM .
AM I GOING RIGHT...?

hi Rajesh,
While creating a FM and passing Table to it. u can not use Internal table as type. Instead u need to create a structure in Database and then give the type of table as the Structure type.
Hope this helps u.

Fetch data from table(ET_) which is exporting parameter of function module

Hi,
I m new to ABAP programming.
I have to develop a smartform that has to be filled in with fields from few tables.
These tables have the naming convention ET_<XXX> (i.e. exporting parameter of function module).
I m not able to directly view its contents in se11 or use select query for it.
I have a report program which i can execute to view these parameter names.
Now, how do i fetch data from these parameters/tables and pass it from my driver program to smartform??
Someone pls guide me...
Thank You.

Hi,
I have done that using Field-Symbols.
Thanks,

i followed like this but i am unable to get the subtotal form the internal table.
LOOP AT ITAB1. " assigning <fs_itab1>.
 ASSIGN COMPONENT 'RACCT' OF STRUCTURE <DYN_WA> TO <DYN_FIELD>.
 <DYN_FIELD> = ITAB1-RACCT.
 ASSIGN COMPONENT 'ERGSL' OF STRUCTURE <DYN_WA> TO <DYN_FIELD>.
 <DYN_FIELD> = ITAB1-ERGSL.
 ASSIGN COMPONENT 'TEXT' OF STRUCTURE <DYN_WA> TO <DYN_FIELD>.
 <DYN_FIELD> = ITAB1-TEXT.
 I = 4.
 CLEAR COMP_ITAB.
 LOOP AT COMP_ITAB.
 ASSIGN COMPONENT I OF STRUCTURE <DYN_WA> TO <DYN_FIELD>.
 LOOP AT ITAB WHERE RACCT = ITAB1-RACCT.
 IF ITAB-RBUKRS EQ COMP_ITAB-RBUKRS.
 IF ITAB1-RBUKRS EQ COMP_ITAB-RBUKRS.
 <DYN_FIELD> = ITAB1-REPVAL.
 SUB_TOT = ITAB1-REPVAL.
 ELSE.
