Hi ,

You can use the function module


DDIF_DOMA_GET .

This function module takes the name of the data


element / domain and gives in back its Dictionary
information.

I hope this will help you .

Do the following 2 steps. Then create your ABAP


program accordingly with the SELECT statement.

1. From table DD03L, give your tablename and get


all of its field names and corresponding data
element names.

2. From table DD03T, get the description of each


data element you have got in step 1.

Then Use Function Module


DDIF_FIELDINFO_GET

The sample program will look like this:


REPORT ZTABLEFIELDNAME.

TABLES: DFIES,

X030L.

DATA: BEGIN OF INTTAB OCCURS 100.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE DFIES.

DATA: END OF INTTAB.

PARAMETERS: TABLENM TYPE DDOBJNAME


DEFAULT 'MSEG',

FIELDNM TYPE DFIES-FIELDNAME DEFAULT


'MENGE'.

call function 'DDIF_FIELDINFO_GET'

exporting

tabname = TABLENM

FIELDNAME = FIELDNM

LANGU = SY-LANGU

LFIELDNAME = ' '

ALL_TYPES = ' '

IMPORTING

X030L_WA = WATAB

DDOBJTYPE =

DFIES_WA =

LINES_DESCR =

TABLES

DFIES_TAB = INTTAB

FIXED_VALUES =

EXCEPTIONS

NOT_FOUND = 1

INTERNAL_ERROR = 2

OTHERS = 3.

if sy-subrc <> 0.
WRITE:/ 'Field name not found'.

endif.

LOOP AT INTTAB.

WRITE:/ INTTAB-TABNAME, INTTAB-


FIELDNAME, INTTAB-FIELDTEXT.

ENDLOOP.

End of Program

OR

Step 1.

Run the transaction and click on System -> Status.


Note the program name shown under the
transaction code.

Step 2.

Run SE49 and enter the program name you


identified in step 1 (SAPLCSDI) and then press
enter.

This will identify the tables used, however, as you


want to know the fields used as well then you may
have to resort to looking at the actual code (get a
developer involved if you're not one) using
transaction SE80.

In this case the transaction CS03 is assigned to a


screen with a function group so it's a slightly tricker
process, hence the need for a developers service.

For all the tables, descriptions and fields you can


refer to these tables:

DD02L : ALL SAP TABLE NAMES

DD02T : DESCRIPTION OF TABLE NAMES

DD03L : FIELDS IN A TABLE.

Regards,

Jagadish

Deepali,

Use function module RSD_DTEL_GET to get the field labels for a data
element.

*****Reward points if useful
