Role Resolution Function Module and Container elements

[ASSY, SOSTHENE]

Hi Dave
I don't know if your problem is alreday solved.
 
*       define a multi-line container attribute Approvers
*       Define in your role function  an attribute which
        include structure swhactor.
 
       refresh approver. Clear approver.
         LOOP AT ACTOR_TAB.
            APPROVER-NAME = ACTOR_TAB-OBJID.
            APPEND APPROVER.
          ENDLOOP.
 
          SWC_SET_TABLE AC_CONTAINER  'Approvers'  APPROVER[].
 
 
        I hope that can help you
