strange problem

Former Member — Fri, 21 Apr 2006 12:18:31 GMT

I had declare a constant like

C_AST_VAL LIKE PRPS-ASTNR VALUE 'INCRC300',

when i trying to move into internal table like

MOVE C_AST_VAL TO i_FINAL_COM-ASTNR.

i_final is same as a custom table which is prps-astnr.

but it is always passing this value 00000300 .

even i tried to replace C_AST_VAL WITH hardcode value still it has same value 00000300 .

I THINK problem is with PRPS table , which has 2 fields

with same name . plz some body who has worked help me.

Thanks,

sridhar .

Hi,

It is because PRPS-ASTNR is a numeric character(Character string with only digits).

You cannot store alphabetical characters in that.

When you declare

C_AST_VAL LIKE PRPS-ASTNR VALUE 'INCRC300',

C_AST_VAL is filled with '00000300' becose is a NUMC field.

Hi,

As per SAP help definition -

NUMC

Character string that may only contain digits. The length of a field of this type is limited to a maximum of 255 places.

hi sridhar

with numc can have only digits not alphabetic char's that is y it is not accepting characters and it is taking it as 0's.
