<b>The FM -> META_INFORECORD_GETLIST uses Business Object- BUS3003 to accomplish this job.</b>

Here is the sample code for the FM.


  DATA lt_return          TYPE TABLE OF bapireturn.
  DATA ls_ctr_header_data TYPE bbp_pds_ctr_header_d.


  CALL FUNCTION 'META_INFORECORD_GETLIST'
    EXPORTING
      info_type      = '0'
      purchorg_data  = 'X'
      general_data   = 'X'
      logical_system = ls_ctr_header_data-logsys_fi
    TABLES
      return         = lt_return.

  APPEND LINES OF lt_return TO ct_return.
  FREE lt_return.

Hope this will help.

Please reward suitable points.
