Code Page Conversion Problem

Former Member — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 06:46:33 GMT

HI All,

I have one small query regarding code pages.

in the Port defination of idocs there is a facility to replace special character to any other i.e. code conversion.

Is there any way to set these port definations so that if a character cannot be converted that it will just

be ignored and dropped from the output?

or there is any other way to do this............

thanks in advance.

Vinod

It depends...

if IDOC creation runs through FM MASTERIDOC_DISTIBUTE (or the implementation was done right another way) EXIT EXIT_SAPLBD11_001 should be processed (change of versions). Here you may scan idoc_data for unwanted characters and remove or replace them (i.e. by using FM SCP_REPLACE_STRANGE_CHARS).

have fun!
