Processing a Specific Infotype Record (PA-APP)

You often only require the most recent or earliest infotype record, not all infotype records.

In this case, use one of the following statements:

PAP_PROVIDE_FROM_LAST Pnnnn SPACE PA$BEGDA PA$ENDDA.

or

PAP_PROVIDE_FROM_FIRST Pnnnn SPACE PA$BEGDA PA$ENDDA.

These statements make the newest or oldest record in the PA$BEGDA to PA$ENDDA data selection period available in the structure Pnnnn .

If the infotype has subtypes, replace the SPACE parameter by the appropriate subtype number.

When a record has been successfully read, the return code PAP-SW-FOUND = 1 is transferred.

Sample report:

REPORT RPDEMO02.

TABLES: APPLICANT.

INFOTYPES: 0001.

GET APPLICANT.

PAP_PROVIDE_FROM_FIRST P0001 SPACE PA$BEGDA PA$ENDDA.

IF PAP_SW_FOUND eq ‘1’.

WRITE: / APPLICANT-APLNO, P0001-BUKRS, PA$BEGDA, PA$ENDDA.

ELSE.

REJECT.

ENDIF.

The above statements are ABAP macros.
