Field symbols are not asssigned

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have to us field symbols instead of work area, i am getting an error as field symbols are not assigned,

This is how i declared filed symbols.

DATA:TS_BKPF TYPE TABLE OF y_bkpf ,

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_y_bkpf> TYPE ANY TABLE.

.FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs> TYPE y_bkpf.

.

.

.

.

LOOP AT ts_bkpf ASSIGNING <fs>.

    e_struct1-bukrs = <fs>-bukrs.

when i debug, fs has no value assigned to it.

Please Help.

Hi Anisha,

This error could be due type mismatch of structures y_bkpf and ts_bkpf. Declare <fs> as TYPE ANY and try again.

Hello,

1. IF ts_bkpf IS NOT INITIAL.
2.   LOOP AT ts_bkpf ASSIGNING <fs>.
3.     e_struct1-bukrs = <fs>-bukrs.
4.   ENDLOOP.
5. ELSE.
6.   WRITE: 'The table TS_BKPF is empty'.
7. ENDIF.

Hi Anisha,

If you are working in ABAP 7.40, you could use the new pattern:-

LOOP AT t_bkpg ASSIGNING FIELD-SYMBOLS(<fs>).

ENDLOOP.

Could you please list the structure type y_bkpf fields?

Check if the <fs> is assigned.

IF <FS> IS ASSIGNED.

     e_struct1-bukrs = <fs>-bukrs.

ENDIF.

Thanks,

Declare as below and try,

Field-Symbols:<fs> like line of ts_bkpf.

loop at ts_bkpf assigning <fs>.

     e_struct1-bukrs = <fs>-bukrs.

endloop.

Also check if the table ts_bkpf is not initial.

Hope this helps.

That question has already received several positive response, I believe that can already be closed.

You should make a check on ts_bkpf internal table if it is empty, does not enter the loop.

The declaration of the field symbol is either declared as:

field-symbols <fs> type y_bkpf.

or

field-symbols <fs> like line of ts_bkpf.

In both situations will be handled as a line.

Hi Anisha,

if ts_bkpf is initial.: then it will go in short dump.

after loop statement.

if its initial then assing some dummy value, later u can unassign that.
