Working with Reports

Naming a Report (R/Z + M/F... + Name(6))  Creating Reports  Changing Reports


Report Syntax and Layout

Structure of the ABAP/4 Programming Language  ABAP/4 Report Layout  Inserting Ready-Made Strucures


Key Words
   

Declaratives (DATA,.) Events (GET,...) Control (IF,...) Operational (WRITE,)

Declaring and Processing data

Constants/Variables  Assigning Values  Arithmetic Operations  Processing Text Fields  System Fields (SY-UZEIT, SY-DATUM)

Subroutines
Definition  Calling Subroutines  Passing data between subroutines/reports (INCLUDE, PERFORM X(Y),...)  Function Modules


Reading and Processing Internal Tables/Databases

Definition (Internal Tables)  Filling Internal Tables  Reading/Changing and Sorting  SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/MODIFY/ DELETE


Simple Reading
SELECT * FROM T005T WHERE LAND1 EQ 'D'. WRITE: T005T-SPRAS, T005T-NATIO. ENDSELECT. SELECT * FROM <dbtab> INTO TABLE <itab> [WHERE ...] [ORDER BY ...]. Note that there is no ENDSELECT here. SELECT * FROM <dbtab> APPENDING TABLE <itab> [WHERE ...] [ORDER BY ...]. If the operation was successful, the system field SY-SUBRC is set to 0, otherwise to 4. SELECT SINGLE * FROM <dbtab> WHERE ... In this case, the WHERE condition may contain only equality conditions linked using AND. You have to specify the primary key in full.
