GET: Event keyword for defining event blocks for reporting events.

GET <node> [FIELDS <fi> <f 2>...].
GET node LATE [FIELDS f1 f2 ...].

Only occurs in executable programs. When the logical database has passed a line of the node to the program, the runtime environment triggers the GET event, and the corresponding event block is executed. You can use the FIELDS option to specify explicitly the columns of a node that the logical database should read.

Here is a sample ABAP program using GET.

REPORT Zdemo_get. 
NODES: spfli.
 
START-OF-SELECTION. 
GET spfli FIELDS carrid connid cityfrom cityto. 
  SKIP. 
  ULINE. 
  WRITE: / 'Carrid:', spfli-carrid, 
           'Connid:', spfli-connid, 
         / 'From:  ', spfli-cityfrom, 
           'To:    ', spfli-cityto. 
  ULINE.
