Function module to read domain value table texts (not fixed value)

[Former Member]

Hi,

i'm looking for an function module or method to read from a known domain the text of a value which is defined in a value table (not as a fixed value).

(All I found is to read the fixed values - but this i don't need.)

AFAIK there are only FMs for single value text. But you could use same tools than SQ01 generated queries, look for method if_text_identifier_obj-read_text in forum.

The closest I got was CL_TEXT_IDENTIFIER which did not suit my purposes. So I ended up writing my own... here are some key code snippets.

Some notes:

• The opt_crit is for additional key fields, which some domain text tables have. For example T336T has LGNUM and KZDIF as keys.
• Reading this now, I would think the DD03L selections should have an ORDER BY POSITION to ensure that it is getting the same field consistently... but apparently this worked for me 🙂

        SELECT SINGLE * INTO l_dd1
          FROM dd01l
          WHERE domname = domname
          AND as4local = 'A'
          AND as4vers = ''  ##WARN_OK.
         
        ...IF sy-subrc....
         
        CALL FUNCTION 'DDUT_TEXTTABLE_GET' ##FM_SUBRC_OK
          EXPORTING
            tabname   = l_dd1-entitytab
          IMPORTING
            texttable = l_chktab
          EXCEPTIONS
            OTHERS    = 1.          
       
        ...IF sy-subrc...  
        
        SELECT SINGLE fieldname position INTO (l_txtfield, l_position)
          FROM dd03l
          WHERE tabname = l_chktab
          AND as4local = 'A'
          AND as4vers  = ''
          AND keyflag = ''  ##WARN_OK.
        IF sy-subrc = 0.
          l_position = l_position - 1.
          SELECT SINGLE fieldname INTO l_chkfield
            FROM dd03l
            WHERE tabname = l_chktab
            AND as4local = 'A'
            AND as4vers = ''
            AND position = l_position  ##WARN_OK.
          IF opt_crit IS NOT INITIAL.
            l_position = l_position - 1.

            SELECT SINGLE fieldname INTO l_optfield
              FROM dd03l
              WHERE tabname = l_chktab
              AND as4local = 'A'
              AND as4vers = ''
              AND position = l_position  ##WARN_OK.
            IF sy-subrc = 0.
              CONCATENATE l_optfield ` = '` opt_crit `' AND ` INTO l_entered.
              APPEND l_entered TO li_entered.
            ENDIF.
          ENDIF.

          " Assemble WHERE clause
          CONCATENATE l_chkfield ` = '` chk_value `'` INTO l_entered.
          APPEND l_entered TO li_entered.

          SELECT SINGLE (l_txtfield) INTO e_text
            FROM (l_chktab)
            WHERE (li_entered)
            AND spras = sy-langu.
          IF sy-subrc <> 0.
            l_error = abap_true.
          ENDIF.

... And I had my method setup to be able to call it like this

      field_text = my_class->chk_dd_value(
                                           domname      = 'KZDIF'
                                           chk_value    = l_kzdif
                                           opt_crit     = l_lgnum
                                         ).

Hi

review the FM DOMAIN_VALUE_GET

This only works for fixed values, not from a value table. For example check the domain WERKS.
