Can we use Navigational attributes as Virtual Characteristics

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to derive the virtual characteristic based on 2 infoobjects in the multiprovider. One of the infoobject is a navigational attribute. I am using the BADI approach to create the virtual characteristic. Can we use navigational attributes to pass values to derive the virtual Char or is there any limitation.

Basically can I use the below code to read navigational attr

when <b>'0EMPLOYEE_0JOB'</b> OR '0PROFIT_CTR'.

l_s_chanm-chanm = <chanm_used>.

l_s_chanm-mode = rrke_c_mode-read.

append l_s_chanm to c_t_chanm.

Thanks,

Kal

Hi Kal,

I think you model a virtual KFig in the way you have suggested.I think the routine will work.Its looking similar populating a field using read masterdata.I think it will work.

I have tried using the method above but nothing is read for 0JOB. So wanted to know if we can use navigational attributes in virtual characteristics or is it just limited to characteristics in a multiprovider.

Thanks,

Hi Kal,

Try the same adding 0JOB as a charecterstic in your infoprovider then.Hope then it will work.
