Link between PLKO and PLPO

This section will cover the relationship between PLPO and PLKO.
The link between PLKO : Routine Header and PLPO Routine Post is done in the table PLAS.

An example of SAP Select how to retrieve PLAS : Link between PLPO and PLKO

An ABAP sample code to retrieve the different link between PLKO and PLPO using PLAS can be :

READ TABLE lt_plko INTO ls_plko
    WITH KEY plnnr = IV_plnnr " Input 
             plnty = IV_plnty " Input .
IF sy-subrc = 0 .
" write your ABAP Custom Logic 
ENDIF.


" LINK BETWEEN PLKO AND PLPO -> PLAS
LOOP AT lt_plas INTO ls_plas WHERE plnnr = ls_plko-plnnr
                               AND plnty = ls_plko-plnty.

  READ TABLE lt_plpo INTO ls_plpo
   WITH KEY plnty = ls_plas-plnty
            plnnr = ls_plas-plnnr
            plnkn = ls_plas-plnkn
            zaehl = ls_plas-zaehl.
  IF sy-subrc = 0 .
  " CUSTOM LOGIC HERE
  ENDIF.
ENDLOOP

READ TABLE lt_plko INTO ls_plko

WITH KEY plnnr = IV_plnnr " Input

plnty = IV_plnty " Input .

IF sy-subrc = 0 .

" write your ABAP Custom Logic

ENDIF.

" LINK BETWEEN PLKO AND PLPO -> PLAS

LOOP AT lt_plas INTO ls_plas WHERE plnnr = ls_plko-plnnr

AND plnty = ls_plko-plnty.

READ TABLE lt_plpo INTO ls_plpo
