Filling the column values on clicking a button

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I have requirment where in

When user select the column and click on a custom button "FILL COLUMN"

then the first field value in the column needs to get copied

in all the row of the same column.

Ex:-

Suppose a table contain a A, B ,C columns with 3 line items

A B C

1 a x

2 c y

3 b z

When user selects B column then click on Fill column then

all the values in the column should become a

A B C

1 a x

2 a y

3 a z

How can we select a column?

How can we caputure the value in onactionFILLCOLUMN??

Please let me know how we can handle this requirement.

Regards,

Neelima

Hi Neelima,

You can't select Columns in table, you can select rows only. Are you talking about rows or columns?

Hi,

Expand the table UI element. Select the Column. it has event onAction. i think u can write the code for this event.

When u create the methid for it, check the 'Transfer ui element parameter'.

In the parameter list u will get a parameter 'ID' type string. U will get the column name .

hope this will helps u.

Hi Neelima

For every column we have ON_ACTION event, we can write coding in this based on requirement.

Or I Think ... i am trying this example.. just try

Select row and get the value of b and fil table with new valeus again.

1. Below code gives you selected record.

DATA lo_nd_pack_mat TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.

DATA ls_pack_mat TYPE wd_this->Element_pack_mat.

DATA lt_pack_mat TYPE wd_this->Elements_pack_mat.

• navigate from <CONTEXT> to <PACK_MAT> via lead selection

lo_nd_pack_mat = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_pack_mat ).

lo_nd_pack_mat->get_static_attributes_table( importing table = lt_pack_mat ). // t_pack_mat containes selected record.

suppose you want to change B column values.

loop at lt_pack_mat into ls_pack_mat.

ls_pack_mat-b = 'A'.

append ls_pack_mat to lt_pack_mat.

endloop.

lo_nd_pack_mat->bind_table( LT_PACK_MAT ).

Hope it helps..

Hello Kris,

This logic is working but it is not visible in the screen after saving it.

I have checked it in debugging

lo_nd_pack_mat->bind_table( LT_PACK_MAT ).

LT_PACK_MAT also the changed values but it is not visible in the screen.

Please let me know how i can resolve this issue.

Hi Neelima,

Try this by using set_initial elements.

lo_nd_pack_mat->bind_table( NEW_ITEMS = LT_PACK_MAT SET_INITIAL_ELEMENTS = ABAP_FALSE ).

cheers,
