Reading BusinessObject's key values in the task

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a object in my container which is of type BUS2081.

I need to read its key values(InvoiceDocNumber, FiscalYear) in my task method for further processings.

I have found these macros swc_get_object_type, swc_get_object_key. But not getting how could i use these for my scenario.

Could anybody explain how can i achieve this ?

Regards,

Hi Anbarasan,

1.Declaring the variable Object as an object reference with type SWC_OBJECT

Call: DATA <Object> TYPE SWC_OBJECT.

The variable <Object> declared holds the object reference in the form of an "object handle", that is, in a runtime structure that only exists within a program context.

But containers passed via a function module interface always contain persistent object references. Before you read an object reference from a container and store it in the variable <Object> , you must make all object references in the container into handles. The macro SWC_CONTAINER_TO_RUNTIME does this for you.

This note only applies to you if:

o You read a role parameter container for role resolution.

o You read an event parameter container within a check function module or a receiver type function module.

If you are within the object type program, the container does not have to be converted.

2.Reading an object reference from a container

Call: SWC_GET_ELEMENT <Container> <Element> <Object>.

Container describes a container instance created with the macro instruction SWC_CONTAINER .

Element is the ID of the container element, under which the object reference was stored.

Object is the object reference declared with TYPE SWC_OBJECT .

3.Separating the object type-specific key from the object reference:

Call: SWC_GET_OBJECT_KEY <Object> <ObjectKey>.

4.Separating the ID of the object type from the object reference:

Call: SWC_GET_OBJECT_TYPE <Object> <ObjectType>.

Object type is the ID of the object type and is declared with

DATA <Object type> LIKE SWOTOBJID-OBJTYPE.

Thanks Pari & Pavan.

I got it with the following code.

DATA: l_bus2081 TYPE swc_object,

l_bus2081key TYPE swotobjid-objkey.

swc_get_element container 'InvDocObject' l_bus2081.

swc_get_object_key l_bus2081 l_bus2081key.

L_BELNR = l_bus2081key+0(10). "InvoiceDocNumber

L_GJAHR = l_bus2081key+10. "FiscalYear

Thank you.

Hi Anbarasan,

In order to retrieve the Key Values (Invoice Doc # and Fiscal Year), you need to use the below fields in your code:

"object-key-invoicedocnumber" for Invoice Doc #

"object-key-fiscalyear" for Fiscal Year.

e.g., if you want to concatenate the Invoice Doc # and Fiscal year into one variable, you will write the following piece of code:

concatenate object-key-invoicedocnumber object-key-fiscalyear into varialbe1.

Hope this helps.

No, the macros right one you have to use is

• SWC_SET_ELEMENT conatiner <name> <value>

• SWC_SET_TABLE conatiner <Name> <value>.

In your case you have to use SWC_SET_ELEMENT this will pass the values from BO--to task container

make sure that you make the task conatiner elements as Import Export Enabled.
