Datatype Conversion [NUMC5 to NUMC6]

Dear All,

Is there any way to connect EKPO-ebelp to KONV-kposn [the two fields are type incompactable; one is numc5 and the other is numc6].

Hi,

it is completely false that the fields are type incompatible. They have a different length but it is not an impediment to move values from EKPO-ebelp to KONV-kposn and both are of type NUMC.

DATA: var1 TYPE ekpo-ebelp VALUE '45',
      var2 TYPE konv-kposn.


MOVE var1 TO var2.
WRITE:/10 var2.

in the other way it is not possible, because you´re losing one digit.

Thers is a option to do that. Please follow the belo things in your code.

declare L_ebelp type KONV-kposn.

Move the data EKPO-EBELP to L_EBELP.

while you extact the data from KONV in the where condition you can compare Where KPOSN = L_EBELP.

This will not show any error. It will works fine. Please check and let me know.

Hi UllasU,

for what purpose do you want convert the data types?

below statement works fine - table konv cannot be uses in JOIN.

SELECT *
      FROM konv
      WHERE knumv = ekko-knumv
      AND   kposn = ekpo-ebelp.

regards
