What is the include for text variable?

Question

Dear Friends
I am trying to add a customer exit for text variables.
I have done variable exits for things like fiscal period but not for customer exit TEXT variables.
I could not find any text variable code in the include ZXRSRU01  .
Please advise what should be the program name?
Is it found in a different include?
regards
Bass

Hi Bass,
Customer exit for text variables is also the same how we create customer exits for characterisitics variable. As per the clarity what i got from ur question.
I'll just explain a small program in customer exits which will act as a text variable.
Go to SE38 -->
Display the program ZXRSRU01 --> (This can be done only if you have added the enhancement of the system from CMOD)
Then add ur following case statement to the existing code.
After all the data declarations start ur main program
when 'YEAR_CUST'.
  if i_step = 2.
    l_year1 = sy-datum+2(2). //Data declaration
    l_mon1 = sy-datum+4(2).  // Data Declaration
   l_date1 = sy-datum+6(2). // Data Declaration
     case l_mon1. //case statement which has the technical name of ur Exit variable
     when  '01'. // This statement generally checks the whether the given variable entry has a value '01' then enters the statement here and returns the value as JAN //
          CONCATENATE 'JAN' l_year1 into dat.
          l_s_range-low = dat.
          l_s_range-high = l_s_range-low.
          l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
          l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
          APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
          endcase.
         ENDIF.
Hope this helps u and have given the explanation as per the understanding of your questionand can give more clarity to you.
