In this IMG activity, you specify the data collection routines for the text variables used and specify whether a variable is mandatory for the output of the form or not.

The variables used in a form must be defined in a structure of the repository. You can find the variables that are defined in the standard SAP R/3 System in the structure PPVAR.

If you want to create your own variables, you can copy a routine from the program RHKMIT30_LSO into your own program. The transfer parameters must be the same for all routines.

This requires the following actions:

  1. Definition of the text variables in the customer include of the Repository structure PPVARC.
  2. Definition of the data collection routines for the text variables in a user-specific main program (subroutine pool).

    Please ensure that the interface for the new routines corresponds to those of the standard routines.

  3. Creation of the entry for the text variables and their data collection routines in the IMG activity Define format for Text Variables.
  4. Insertion of the text variables at the right place in a text element of a form.

To insert existing text variables, proceed as follows:

In the IMG activity Edit Forms, in the text element editing menu, choose Insert -> Symbol -> Program Symbols. You can display the available structures (PPVAR, PPVARC) with the function DDIC Fields. When you select the structure you want, the system displays the fields of the structure that can be selected. When you choose 'Transfer', the text variables are transferred to the text.

Example

The variable PPVAR-F_PLZ means 'postal code of the course location'. It is filled using the data collection routine GET_F_PLZ in the program RHKMIT30_LSO.

Standard settings

The data collection routines for the variables in structure PPVAR are delivered with program RHKMIT30_LSO.

Activities

  1. Specify the relevant program and data collection routines for your text variables.
  2. Specify whether the variable is required for output of the form.
