Hi,
first find and analyse the report program executing while executing the Tcode MD4C.
you can directly call that standard report program from your z-program using below statement.
Follow the below steps.
Call the below FM to prepare selection table
  W_REPORTID = SY-REPID.
  CALL FUNCTION 'RS_REFRESH_FROM_SELECTOPTIONS'
    EXPORTING
      CURR_REPORT     = W_REPORTID
    TABLES
      SELECTION_TABLE = W_SEL_TAB.
  Call the standard program
SUBMIT 'Standard program name' EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY WITH SELECTION-TABLE W_SEL_TAB  AND RETURN.
use the below function module to get the contents from memory
Use the function module to get the data from memory.
  CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
    TABLES
      LISTOBJECT = I_LIST.
then use the below function module to convert the downloaded data
Use the function module to convert raw data to asci format
  CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_TO_ASCI'
    TABLES
      LISTASCI           = I_INITIAL
      LISTOBJECT         = I_LIST
    EXCEPTIONS
      EMPTY_LIST         = 1
      LIST_INDEX_INVALID = 2
      OTHERS             = 3.
  IF SY-SUBRC NE '0'.                                       "#EC *
    MESSAGE E056."Unable to convert data.
  ENDIF.
now I_INITIAL will contains the standard report data; now you can analyse this internal table and you can do the coding towards your requirement.
Reward if useful.
