Macros
Example
Defining Macros
DEFINE arithmetic.
result = &1 &2 &3.
Write: / The result is , result.
ENDDEFINE.
Calling Macros
arithmetic 4 + 5.
Output
The result is 9
Include Programs
If we want to use the same sequence of statements in
several programs, we can code them once in an include
program and call it in the other programs wherever it is
required
Include programs cannot contain PROGRAM or
REPORT Statements
Include programs cannot call themselves
Include programs must contain complete statements
Using Include programs
Syntax
INCLUDE <name_of_the_include>.
Example
REPORT zrssales10.
INCLUDE zrsdecla10.
.
Write: / Date:, sy-datum.
Subroutines
Types of subroutine
internal subroutines
external subroutines
Defining and calling subroutine
Definition - Syntax
FORM <subr_name>.
<statement block>.
ENDFORM.
Calling - syntax
Internal Subroutines
PERFORM <subr_name>.
External Subroutines
PERFORM <subr_name> (<prog>) [IF FOUND].
<Prog> - Program name
IF FOUND - If this is specified and there is no
subroutine <sub> in the program <prog>,
the system ignores the PERFORM statement.
Defining and calling subroutine
Example
Defining the subroutine
PROGRAM formpool.
FORM show.
WRITE: / Program started by, sy-uname.
ENDFORM.
Defining
FORM <subr> [TABLES <formal table list>]
[USING <formal input list>]
[CHANGING <formal output list>].
Calling
PERFORM <subr>[(<prog>)] [TABLES <actual table list>]
[USING <actual input list>]
[CHANGING <actual output list>].
Methods of passing parameters
1. Calling by Reference
2. Calling by value
1. Call by reference
FORM..... [USING <fi1>... <fi n>] [CHANGING <fo 1>... <fo n>]...
PERFORM... [USING <ai1>... <ai n>] [CHANGING <ao 1>... <ao n>]...
Call by reference
Actual Parameters
2. Call by value
FORM..... USING...VALUE(<fii>)..
PERFORM... USING.......<aii>..
Tables
Specifies the tables that are to be passed to a function
module. Table parameters are always passed by
reference.
Exceptions
Shows how the function module reacts to exceptions.
The function definition is written in the editor (Source code)
Adding the function module to the program
[MESSAGE <mess>]
[FILTER <filt>].
<dsn> can be a logical or physical file names
File Handling READ DATASET
Reads a file
Syntax:
READ DATASET <dsn> INTO <f> [LENGTH <len>].
Syntax:
- Writing to a dataset
TRANSFER <f> TO <dsn> [LENGTH <len>].
- Closing a dataset
CLOSE DATASET <dsn>.
BDC - Batch Data Communication
SAP Database
SAP Database
BDC Methods
Classical Method
Call Transaction
Call Dialog
BDC Methods
Creating a session on the batch input queue
Standard method.
Call dialog
1) Outdated and more complex (Not Recommended)
Preparing a BDC Table
1) Program name
2) Screen number
3) Screen begin
4) Field name
5) Field value
