Conversion error

Former Member — Tue, 12 May 2009 18:52:37 GMT

Hi,

I'm working on an upgrade project and we have a conversion error in relation to a structure.

In 4.6c we have:

- A variable type c. It has several values concatenated (including a dec type). The value included in the variable is obtained from a UNIX file. Following, an example of a value:

Variable = 2000090010000600000000069999999###

Note: ### is equal to 0.20. In hexadecimal = 02C

- A structure type customer table. This customer table includes a dec field.

In 4.6c version, we can assign directly the value of the variable to the structure.

Most important, the system converts without problems the ### by 0.20 value.

In ECC 6.0 (new version) we can't make this assigment any more.Then, we use C147_CHARFIELD_TO_WORKAREA function module. However, the function can't resolve ### to 0.20 value any more.

Anyone knows the way to resolve the ### to 0.20?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best Regards,

Leonardo

ECC 6 you need to use the class


call method cl_abap_container_utilities=>read_container_c
    exporting
      im_container           = variable  " Your character variable
    importing
      ex_value               = custom_table   "Your custom table type
    exceptions
      illegal_parameter_type = 1
      others                 = 2.

Hi,

I tried with the method cl_abap_container_utilities=>read_container_c

However, the field type DEC is equal than 0.

MANDT 310

BUKRS 0090

ZZ_RED_SOC_F 0100

VONKTO 0060000000

BISKTO 0069999999

ZZ_RED_PCOM 0.00

It should be equal than 0.20.

This is my problem. All functions/method that i have used are no able to convert ### to 0.20.

I need to find the way to make this convertion: ### to 0.20.

Thanks anyway for your answer.
