How to fetch the data from a PE03 feature

1. Find the feature in PE03.
  Go to transaction PE03 in sap t code and identify the feature you would want to use. For this document purpose we would try to use the feature NUMKR.
2. Click on attributed in the subobject and click on change. Once that is done, we would see the next screen
3. Click on Struct. Button as shown above. Once you click on the button the next screen shows up. Please look at the highlighted box.

This structure could change for every other feature, there are few features which would use the similar structure .
To fetch the data from this feature you can use the function module : “HR_FEATURE_BACKFIELD” . The problem with this is – we can not run this function module in tcode se37 since this FM would expect a structure we need a simple report to use this.

Sample abap report –

"create structure type
data lt_pm01 type pme01.
data lt_pa0001 type p0001.
data lv_value type string .

"move the data from pa0001 to lv_pm01.
select single * from pa0001 into lt_pa0001 where pernr = '8960' .
MOVE-CORRESPONDING lt_pa0001 to lt_pm01.

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_FEATURE_BACKFIELD'
  EXPORTING
    FEATURE                           = 'NUMKR'
    STRUC_CONTENT                     = lt_pm01
*   KIND_OF_ERROR                     =
 IMPORTING
   BACK                              = lv_value .
          .
IF SY-SUBRC eq 0.
* Implement suitable error handling here
  write :/ lv_value .
ENDIF.
