EHS_SR_230_10_4 - Check and Specify Report Symbols
ABAP Short Reference ABAP Short ReferenceThis documentation is copyright by SAP AG.
In this IMG activity, you check the symbols you generated in the IMG activity Create Report Symbols. You can create new symbols if required.
The following example illustrates how you define a symbol:
You want to create a parameter symbol that transfers the name of a supplier.
- Specify a table field in the DDIC in which the supplier's name is stored (example: SWX_BANF-SUPPLIER).
- Choose New Entries and enter the following data:
| Report symbol type: | 02 | Input help exists | |
| Report symbol: | SUPPLIER | (Example) | |
| Report symbol group: | 02 | Input help exists | |
| Access key parameter: | Table | (Example, reference to table field) | |
| Value asset type: | _ | (Not applicable for table fields) | |
| Expansion time: | 20 | (10 = report body, 20 = final report) | |
| Expansion mode: | NM | (Numeric processing or processing method) | |
| Expansion parameter: | N | (Processing mask (numeric)) | |
| Expansion value: | Z999,99 | (4 places before the decimal point and 2 after) | |
| Report symbol desc.: | Supplier | (Example) | |
| Table name: | LIPS | ||
| Field name: | ARKTX | ||
| Class type: | _ | (Not applicable for table fields) | |
| Class: | _ | (Not applicable for table fields) | |
| Characteristic: | _ | (Not applicable for table fields) |
- Save your new symbol.
You can now use this symbol in document templates.
Note:
- Generated symbols are assigned an alphanumeric key. This key is generated from the keys of the referenced data object following a specific algorithm.
- Manually defined symbols can be assigned any alphanumeric key, for example, YCUST-NAME for customer name. We recommend that you use a self-explanatory key. The symbol table is of type G. Thus, the table contains both SAP entries as well as customer entries. The generic namespaces Y and Z are reserved for customer entries.
Once a symbol has been used in a document template it can no longer be deleted. Its attributes cannot be changed either.
