problem with 'append' syntax in ECC 6.0

Former Member — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 00:05:09 GMT

i am upgrading a old report i got a unicode error

actually the report has the followig structure

tables: arc_buffer.

DATA: BEGIN OF class_package OCCURS 0.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE arch_packa.

DATA: END OF class_package.

now the report has following syntax

APPEND arc_buffer-segment TO class_package.

when i try to execute it it gives error that

'a line of class_package and arc_buffer-segment are not mutually convertible in a unicode program.'

can any one help me to resolve this.

Hi,

just check data definitions in SE11. You will see that structure ARCH_PACKA does not match with ARC_BUFFER-SEGMENT. The difference is in data type as well as length.

Cheers

Hi Elinuk,

Use field symbols to make it compatible.

Hope the below code helps.


REPORT  zvk_test.

TABLES: arc_buffer.

DATA: BEGIN OF class_package OCCURS 0.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE arch_packa.
DATA: END OF class_package.

DATA:lw_arch_packa TYPE arch_packa.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:<fs_arch_packa>.

arc_buffer-segment = 'krishna999988jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj'.

ASSIGN arc_buffer-segment TO <fs_arch_packa> CASTING TYPE arch_packa.
MOVE <fs_arch_packa> TO lw_arch_packa.

APPEND lw_arch_packa TO class_package.
