Questions on Structured table

Hello ABAP Gurus,
Kindly explain the difference between the Structured table and transparent table.
and how to add field in a structured table?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you very much!

hi,
Structure does'nt hold any data.it is just a collection of fields.
Table Holds data.it contains fields and data.
Fields are contained in table.
In structure-only runtime values can be stored
In table-can store data permanently
In fields-group of entry/data which r placed in ordered manner within table

Conversion Table Questions: problems converting tables to structured

I'm in the process of converting unstructed FM8 docs to structured docs using FM10 and DITA structure. Right now I'm trying to build a conversion table to structure the docs, but I'm having a lot of trouble with the tables. The main problem seems to be with the tgroup element since I can't figure out how to get the thead and tbody to wrap in the tgroup element.
Here is an example of one of the tables I'm trying to structure:
This is the Table section of the conversion table I've had the most success with:
And this is the result:
As you can see, the thead and tbody elements are not wrapped in tgroup and the structure is invalid. I've been playing around with the conversion table for several days now and can't seem to figure out how to fix this. If anyone has any suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
D'Arcy

D'Arcy,
Here are a few observations that might help:
1) The structure you use within FM (which is what the conversion table helps create) need not be exactly the same as the structure you use in XML.
2) Do not confuse the element named table with a FrameMaker table.
3) As Michael has pointed out, the CALS table model used by DITA is a five-level structure:
table
tgroup
    tbody
       row
         entry
while the FrameMaker table model has 4 levels:
table
tbody
    row
      cell
4) FrameMaker can map between the 5-level structure and the 4-level structure in one of two ways, controlled by the element definitions (usually specified in an EDD), the read/write rules, and the DTD:
a) The element named table can be a container while the element named tgroup is the actual table. This model has a closer correspondence between the FrameMaker and the DITA table structure. Michael has pointed out one of its biggest weaknesses. If a FrameMaker table (regardless of its element name) has a title, then FrameMaker repeats the title on each page of a multipage table. However, if the element named table is a container and the actual table is an element named tgroup, the title is a container preceding the table and this automatic repetition does not happen.
b) If you are sure that your tables will always consist of a single tgroup, you don't have to use the tgroup element within FrameMaker. Make the element named table a FrameMaker table and include the read/write rule:
element "tgroup" unwrap;
FrameMaker will recreate the tgroup element whenever you save a document as XML. This model allows you to make the table title a FrameMaker table. However, you cannot use the element named title as both a FrameMaker table title and a container. Typically, therefore, people use the element named title as a container that is the title of things like chapters and sections and use an element named something like tabletitle for the title of tables.
Read/write rules like:
element "title" is fm element:
element "title" is fm table title element "tabletitle"'
let you save your documents as XML with both title and tabletitle represented as <title> in XML. You'll need to use a custom client or XSLT to map the XML element named title to either title or tabletitle depending on whether the XML element occurs within a table or not.
5) Your conversion table had one row with T: in column 1 and another with T:Format A in column 1; one mapped to table and the other to tgroup. The row with T:Format A would apply to all tables with the specified format, the other row would apply to all tables with other formats. These conversion table rows do not define a relationship between table and tgroup. Map T: to table if you want the model in 4b) above and to tgroup if you want the model in 4a). In the latter case, use an additional row with:
title?, tgroup
in column 1 and table in column 2.

How to call a BAPI when there are structure tables as Input.

Environment: Data Services 3.1 SAP ECC 6.
I can run simple BAPI's where I just populate the Input Parameters.
My question is around more complex BAPI's.
I created a data flow that looks like:
Row Generation > Query > Unnest Query > Template table.
Inside of the query I created a new Function and called the BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN.
This BAPI requires adding data as part of the Structure Tables in the BAPI. I see these tables in the SAP Data Store and I also see a single input field in the Data Services Function Wizard that desribes the Structure.
My question is - how do I populate the fields when it comes from a Structure Table in the BAPI?

A table parameter is a schema, so you need an upfront query where you create that schema with the nested data. The schema is then mapped to the table parameter, the columns of the schema have to match by name.

CALL function to extract data from a structure table

Hi Gurus,
Anyone knows how to write a call function to extract data from a structure table?
Your help is very much appreciated.
Thanks alot.

Hi,
structure doesnot hold any data. instead of it you can check the stucture in which table it is used, find the table name,use select query to extract the data u needed.
you can use where used list option to find the structure in which table it is used.

PR counterparts of PO structure/tables

Hi gurus,
Do you know what are the PR counterparts of these PO structure/tables?
mepoheader

Thanks!

EBAN is the table where PR gets saved (BANFN - PR no , BNFPO - Item no )
EKKO , EKPO ...are the PO tables and PR number also will be updated in these tables for cross reference.

Question on using table types in methods

Hi
I have a simple question involving passing table types in method
I want to pass an internal table by reference - to a method and within the method populate the internal table (t1) using a select * into the internal table and then sort t1 by f1 and f2. t1 is an internal table based on a ABAP dictionary table ( at1 )
Question is : If I use a generic type TABLE declaration , it does not allow sort operation specifically by fields. If I use type at1 as in
the METHODS M1 exporting t1 type at1statement, syntax error is - t1 is not an internal table.
How do I achieve the above using the method implementation ?
Sample code that I try
CLASS C1 DEFINITION
PUBLIC SECTION
METHODS M1 exporting t1 type table
ENDMETHOD
ENDCLASS
CLASS C1 IMPLEMENTATION
METHOD M1
select * from at1 into t1.
sort t1 field f1 f2
ENDCLASS

You should define a TABLE TYPE based upon the data dictionary type (at1) either in the data dictionary using SE11 or in the TYPES section of the class.
Then define the parameter of this new type.
Cheers

Trouble controlling structured table alignment

I can control my linked unstructured tables via table format alignment in FM...
However, when linking structured tables, my tables are preceded by
<?rh-align_start align="right" ?>
Any thoughts?
-Matt
@mattrsullivan

You're right...the formatting in a structured doc is generally handled with an EDD.
However, to map into RH, you need to have paragraph tags, which means the EDD calls out the tag used on the content, and then that tag is mapped to the CSS in RH. (Still with me???)
<rant>RH need to be able to map to elements and not just paragraph styles. RH needs to be an XML editor. RH needs a better DITA solution</rant>
UPDATE: It seems the application of the FrameMaker template in the conversion forces the <?rh> formatting. If I remove the conversion template, then the formatting from the FM document applies. Unfortunately, when applying the FramaMaker template, I am unable to control the table alignment from the template file.
It appears for now that I'll have to avoid applying the FrameMaker template with my linking process.

How to update toplink if i change structure table

Step 3:
How do i can update toplink which don't lost data.
Please help me!!!

The mapping tooling for TopLink/EclipseLink in JDeveloper, Eclipse IDE, and the standalone Workbench provide support for importing new table structures and then assiting you with updating your mappings to reflect the changes in the database and the corresponding changes you will make in the persistent domain model.

Question about Update Tables

Hello Gurus,
I have a question about "update table" entries. I read somewhere that an entry in update table is done at the time of the OLTP transaction. Is this correct? If so, does this happen on a V1 update or V2 update? Please clarify. Similarly, an entry in the "extraction queue" (incase you are using "queued delta" will happen on V1 update. I just want to get a clarification on both these methods. Any help in this matter is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sreekanth

Hi
update tables are temporary table that are refreshed by v3 job.update table is like buffer, it gets filled after updation of application table and statistical table through v1 v2 update . we can bypass this process by delta methods.
