ABAP Select data from SAP table TCY66 into internal table



Get Example source ABAP code based on a different SAP table
  

Below is a number of ABAP code snippets to demonstrate how to select data from SAP TCY66 table and store it within an internal table, including using the newer @DATA inline declaration methods. It also shows you various ways to process this data using ABAP work area, inline declaration or field symbols including executing all the relevant CONVERSION_EXIT routines specific to TCY66.

Sometimes data within SAP is stored within the database table in a different format to what it is displayed to the user. These input/output conversation FM routines are what translates the data between the two formats.

There is also a full declaration of the TCY66 table where each field has a char/string type for you to simply copy and paste. This allows you to use processing that is only available to these field types such as the CONCATENATE statement.

DATA: IT_TCY66 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF TCY66,
      WA_TCY66 TYPE TCY66,
      GD_STR TYPE STRING.

DATA: lo_typedescr type REF TO cl_abap_typedescr.
DATA: lv_fieldname type fieldname.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FIELD> TYPE any.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <TCY66> TYPE TCY66.


*Original SAP ECC Select statement 
SELECT *
*restrict ABAP select to first 10 rows
 UP TO 10 ROWS      
  FROM TCY66
  INTO TABLE IT_TCY66.

*Select data and declare internal table using  in-line method @DATA 
SELECT *
  FROM TCY66
  INTO TABLE @DATA(IT_TCY662).

*You can also declare the header/work area using the  in-line DATA declaration method 
READ TABLE IT_TCY66 INDEX 1 INTO DATA(WA_TCY662).


*Latest ABAP cloud SELECT statement using the FIELDS syntax. But note to following the clean core principles you should not select directly from an SAP table 
* and should instead use a CDS view or create you own CDS and use that.
SELECT FROM TCY66
  FIELDS *
*  WHERE would go here
  INTO TABLE @DATA(IT_TCY662).
