Former Member — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 12:02:50 GMT

my requirement is to create a function module for EBCDIC conversion for -ve quantities. this is for Accounts Payable Invoices Record

for example a Quantity Received, S9(8), of -1150 ... will be passed as 0000115}

For example an A/P Invoice Amount, S9(10)v9(2), of -592.52 ... will be passed as 00000005925K

Negative

0 = }

1 = J

2 = K

3 = L

4 = M

5 = N

6 = O

7 = P

8 = Q

9 = R

with regards,

srinath.

Hi,

Have you considered using the ABAP command TRANSLATE?

You can disassemble the value (WRITE into a character structure with 8 + 1 character fields) and then TRANSLATE the second field using the dictionary you wrote in your post.

TRANSLATE ls_value-last_digit USING '0}1J2K3L4M5N6O7P8Q9R'.
