Hi Experts,

I need clarification regarding the following statement.

IF lv_temp EQ 's'.

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+0(12).

endif.

The above if condition while check whether that 12th character is 's' or not. If not,please provide your solutions.

Best Regards,

Bharat.

Hi,

IF lv_temp EQ 's'. "Will check for lower case value 's'

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+0(12). "Will move the first 12 characters from prps-posid to lv_wbs_temp.

endif.

Please make your question more clear

The above if condition while check whether that 12th character is 's' or not.

IF lv_temp EQ 's'.

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+0(12).

endif.


IF lv_temp EQ 's'.
lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+11(1) ."this will check if 12 character is 's' i.e small s .. 
endif.

There is no check happening for the 12th character in the specified code.

It just moves the value based on Offset position.

Hi Bharat,

The code checks whether lv_temp = 's' and not whether the 12th character of lv_temp is equal to s.

If you want to check the 12th Character of lv_temp, the code should be as follows:

if lv_temp+11(1) = 's'.

...

endif.

Secondly, the statement:

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+0(12).

will move the first twelve characters of prps-posid into lv_wbs_temp.

If you want only the twelfth character to be moved, use this statement:

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+11(1).

Hope this helps! Please revert if you need anything else!!

Cheers,

Shailesh.

yeah .keshav . i was about to alter my answer but system went for a reboot

the comparision she is looking for is a match to 's' but no where it was looking for 12 character ..

//IF lv_temp EQ 's'.

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+11(1) ."this will check if 12 character is 's' i.e small s ..

//endif.

instead it should be the first case like

if psps-posid+11(1) = 's' . makes sense that 12 character is 's' .. question was not clear ..

 lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+0(11). 

This will send first 11 characters of prps-posid to that variable.
 
 lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+11(1).

This will send only 12th character of prps-posid to that variable.

Hello,

As mentioned above for

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+0(11). - copy first 11 characters from prps-posid into the variable

For

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid+11(1) - it will copy 1 character on the 12th position.

Sachin

I think you're tyring to say....

if prps-posid+11(1) eq 's' .

lv_wbs_temp = prps-posid(12).

endif.

Hi,

In your code,

you are first checking whether LV_TEMP EQ 's' or not? If it is 's'then you are passing first 12 characters of PRPS-POSID to

LV_WBS_TEMP.

If you want to check whether 12th character is 's' or not, use following code:

if LV_TEMP+11(1) = 's'.

endif.

Thanks,

Hemant
