* sign in ABAP code

Hi Experts
I found in SAP code the usage of * sign but it wasnt in select statement. Anyone knows how below statement works?
i_frggr = *ekko-frggr
Thanks in advance.
az

Hi,
the statement with *
i_frggr = *ekko-frggr
you can find in the declarations that they would be declared in this way
Tables : *ekko,
ekko.
These kind of declarations are used in the programs which has updates in it...
so *ekko keeps the older value and it is treated as a normal work area only, It has no special meaning attached to it.
ekko holds the modified or updated value which has to be updated in the database table.
so to differentiate between older values and modified values
they used '*' to differentiate them thats all,

Date range selection in abap code in infopackage

Hi!
I have a field called "OPEN_DATE".
When the infopackage is runned, I need the abap code to fint the current date, and from that, make a date range from the first day of current month to the last day of current month
Ex:
Current date = 12.12.2008
Abap code should extract 01.12.2008 - 31.12.2008
Thanks!

Hi helge,
Data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
Data: date_low like sy-datum,
         date_high like sy-datum.
Date_low = sy-datum.

EXPORTING
    DAY_IN                  = Date_low
IMPORTING
   LAST_DAY_OF_MONTH       = date_high
read table l_t_range with key
fieldname = 'OPEN_DATE'.

Formula Variable with customer Exit (ABAP Code)

Hi Experts,
Please advise me wether i am going in the right way to achieve my requirment else please advise me any alternate approach and update me with the abap code for my customer exit as i am not familiar with ABAP.
My Requirment:
Data :
Emp_ID----Start_Date(DATS)---End_Date(DATS)
I had a user entry (intreval) VARIABLE created on Start_Date
User will enter the date intreval he want to analyze...
Ex: 01.01.2008 to 01.02.2008
Now i want to use the No of Days between user entered date intreval in my calculaction of a keyfigure
In the above example it is 31 days
So i created a Formula Variable of Customer Exit now i need a code that will
pass the user entered dates to
FM: FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARSImport parameters Value
I_DATE_FROM 01.01.2008
I_DATE_TO 01.02.2008
I_FLG_SEPARATE ' '
Export parameters Value
E_DAYS 31
E_MONTHS 1
E_YEARS 1
and need to pass the E_DAYS (31) to the result of formula
User Entry Variable (Intreval) : ZST_VAR
Formula Variable (Customer Exit) : ZND_EXIT
Code
WHEN 'ZND_EXIT'.
    DATA: low_date2 TYPE d,
    high_date2 TYPE d,
    num_days TYPE N,
    new_low_date2 TYPE d.
    IF i_step = 2.
      LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO ls_varrange WHERE vnam = 'ZST_VAR'.
        CLEAR l_s_range.
        l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
        l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
        ls_varrange-low = low_date2.
        ls_varrange-high = high_date2.
CALL FUNCTION 'FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARS'
EXPORTING
    I_DATE_FROM          = low_date2
    I_DATE_TO            = high_date2
    I_FLG_SEPARATE       = ' '
IMPORTING
    E_DAYS               = NUM_DAYS
l_s_range = NUM_DAYS.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
EXIT.
ENDLOOP.
endif.

Hello,
Before the WHEN statement it shoud have a CASE statement. In the user exit coding place your WHEN statement anywhere between CASE...ENDCASE statement.
your code should look like
DATA: low_date2 TYPE d,
high_date2 TYPE d,
num_days TYPE N,
new_low_date2 TYPE d.
Case i_vnam.
WHEN 'ZND_EXIT'.
IF i_step = 2.
LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO ls_varrange WHERE vnam = 'ZST_VAR'.
CLEAR l_s_range.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
low_date2 = ls_varrange-low.
high_date2 = ls_varrange-high.
CALL FUNCTION 'FIMA_DAYS_AND_MONTHS_AND_YEARS'
EXPORTING
I_DATE_FROM = low_date2
I_DATE_TO = high_date2
I_FLG_SEPARATE = ' '
IMPORTING
E_DAYS = NUM_DAYS
l_s_range-low = NUM_DAYS.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
EXIT.
ENDLOOP.
endcase.

ABAP Code for SAP exit varaibles?

Hi,
i) Where can I find the abap code for SAP exit variables
OP_KEYDT used for the net due date
OP_KEYD2 used for the posting date
OP_KEYD3 used for the clearing date, which are used in FI AR aging report(0FIAR_C03).
Based on the Net Due Date, which is key date(0NETDUEDATE), entered by the user at runtime, the posting date and celaring date are populated.
II) The problem is we want to simulate a similar scenario, but with key date, which user enters is based on the custom Net Due Date(ZNETDUEDATE).And this date is populated to posting date and clearing date variables.
How do we acheive that.
Thanks.

Hi Kumar,
Try this below mentioned example where default date is current date.
Step1: Create a variable(ex: cur_date) on requrired characteristic with Processing type "Customer Eixt" and check the check box for ready for input(if this variable need in selection screen).
Step 2: Goto T Code : CMOD and provide appropriate Project and choose components and click on display.
Step3: Double click on exit "EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001" you can see include "ZXRSRU01", double click on include.
Step4: Sample code to populate.
WHEN 'CUR_DATE'.
Data : l_p_range_SSS TYPE rrrangesid.
IF I_STEP = 1.
l_p_range_SSS-Low = sy-datum.
l_p_range_SSS-Sign = 'I'.
l_p_range_SSS-Opt = 'EQ'.
APPEND l_p_range_SSS TO e_t_range.
Endif.
The following values are valid for I_STEP:
· I_STEP = 1
Call up takes place directly before variable entry
· I_STEP = 2
Call up takes place directly after variable entry. This step is only started up when the same variable could not be filled at I_STEP=1.
· I_STEP = 3
In this call up, you can check the values of the variables. Triggering an exception (RAISE) causes the variable screen to appear once more. Afterwards, I_STEP=2 is also called up again.
· I_STEP = 0
The enhancement is not called from the variable screen. The call up can come from the authorization check or from the Monitor.
Also, refer this link..

ABAP Code Date Selection for InfoPackage Scheduler

Hello Group
I need to automate the selection of valid condition records for an extraction that have a From and To date range.
I noticed there is an option (Routine for time interval) to write ABAP code along with a template that is available in the InfoPackage.
I think the logic for the selection would be any record
Valid from       <= today
Valid to           >= today
Can anyone help with the ABAP code?
The template is as follows:
program conversion_routine.
Type pools used by conversion program
type-pools: rsarc, rsarr, rssm.
tables: rsldpsel.
Global code used by conversion rules
$$ begin of global - insert your declaration only below this line -
TABLES: ...
DATA:   ...
$$ end of global - insert your declaration only before this line   -
form compute_time_dependent_dates
changing p_datefrom type d
           p_dateto   type d
           p_subrc like sy-subrc.
      Insert source code to current selection field
$$ begin of routine - insert your code only below this line        -
          p_datefrom =
          p_dateto   =
          p_subrc = 0.
$$ end of routine - insert your code only before this line         -
endform.
Thank You for your help!!
Frank

I resolved the problem . I have changed the order of read table l_t_range because I need the header .
In the loop at datos I add the line l_t_range-iobjnm = 'ZXGE_UNO'.
The problem wasn't the call RFC it was that I built l_t_range bad. I need the infoObject name.
This is correct!!
READ TABLE L_T_RANGE WITH KEY
         FIELDNAME = '/BIC/ZXGE_UNO'.
LOOP AT DATOS.
      L_T_RANGE-FIELDNAME = '/BIC/ZXGE_UNO'.
      L_T_RANGE-IOBJNM = 'ZXGE_UNO'.
      L_T_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
      L_T_RANGE-OPTION = 'EQ'.
      CONCATENATE '00' DATOS-WA+3(4) INTO L_T_RANGE-LOW.
      APPEND L_T_RANGE.
    ENDLOOP.
*READ TABLE L_T_RANGE WITH KEY+
+*FIELDNAME = '/BIC/ZXGE_UNO'.+
+*    L_IDX = SY-TABIX.+
+*    MODIFY L_T_RANGE INDEX L_IDX

# sign in postal code field.

Hi Experts,
In ADRC table entry for an addr number, there is # sign in postal code field (NG26BJ#).
And due to this incorrect # sign, there are issues occuring in the system.
Can you suggest where do I search for this # sign in the system?
I mean I searched for customer master, vendor master, etc but could not find out # sign in any partner data postal code field.
Please suggest.
-Chetan.

Check all the tables that are on 'where used' list for ADRNR data element in dictionary (SE11).
If it is an "orphaned" record, BW interface should not be actually pulling it in. I would recommend to base the interface on the main table (e.g. KNA1) and only pull ADRC records that are referenced.
The easiest solution would be to write an ABAP report to update the record directly in the database. I wouldn't delete it though, just removed the # sign. Also check the OSS notes or send a message to SAP and they might provide such report for you.

ABAP Code Required to remove #

Hi,
I have 2 characteristics 0COORDER and 0WBS_ELEMT value for which do not exist for all the data records. As a result I get # in the report. How do I replace # in the report with blank? I dont want to use the VB Script, need a permanent fix. Where should I write ABAP routine for that and also please can anyone give me the ABAP code too.
Thank you,
sam

in bex, you can use vba macro. in web, use table interface
replacing '#'-sign for 'not assigned' in queries
SAPBEXonRefresh()
Dim c as range
For Each c in resultArea.cells
if c.Value = "#" then c.Value = "-"
Next c
or
by Jens (consider to performance)
put in SAPBEXonRefresh()
resultArea.Select
Cells.Replace What:="#", Replacement:=" ", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows,
MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
table interface, redefine CHARACTERISTIC_CELL method...
if I_CHAVL = '#'.
c_cell_content = ' '.
endif.
Hope it helps.

ABAP code is not shown in SQ01

Hi,
can somebody help us to understand why ABAP code inserted in a query is shown in SE38 but not in SQ01?
The query was probably created with Quickviewer. How can we correct this?
Thank you.

Hi Suneel,
MOVE l_calweek TO loc_s_range-low.
loc_s_range-sign = 'I'.
loc_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
MOVE l_week_temp TO loc_s_range-high.
APPEND loc_s_range TO e_t_range.
CLEAR: loc_s_range,l_calweek,l_week_temp.
ENDIF.
In the last few lines of your code(given above), where you assign 'EQ' to the range options, please assign 'BT' and check. I think as you are giving 'EQ', it takes only the value given in range-low. If you give 'BT', it should take values between range-low and range-high.
Correction suggestion given below.
MOVE l_calweek TO loc_s_range-low.
loc_s_range-sign = 'I'.
loc_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
MOVE l_week_temp TO loc_s_range-high.
APPEND loc_s_range TO e_t_range.
CLEAR: loc_s_range,l_calweek,l_week_temp.
ENDIF.
Thanks,

Hi,
The following code will help you, there is one variable ZVAR, it is user input variable on 0CALDAY, if user won't give any input it will take System date else it will process user input Date.
Note: Write this code at the end of the ENDCASE. i.e. below
IF i_step = 3.
      LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range WHERE vnam = 'ZVAR'.
          CLEAR: l_s_range.
     IF loc_var_range-low EQ '' or
        loc_var_range-high EQ ''
           l_s_range-low = sy-datum.
           l_s_range-high = sy-datum.
        l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
           l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
           APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
        ELSE.
           l_s_range-low = loc_var_range-low.
        l_s_range-high = loc_var_range-high.
        l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
        l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
        ENDIF.
