SAP Script : Split an element and concatinate

Former Member — Tue, 25 Apr 2006 17:09:42 GMT

Dear All,

In SAP script, I have to split a text element into 2 parts, eg &matnr&, and then concatinate these 2 elements with a constant value in between how can I do that

To make clear say my Matnr is 12345678, I need an output like 1234 USA 5678. please suggest me in doing this.

Thanking you.

Regards

Venkat.

You need to call a subroutine with:

PERFORM rutine IN PROGRAM zprogram.

USING &MATNR&

CHANGING &NEW_MATNR&

ENDPERFORM.

Hi venkat,

If you want to dynamically split the material no. then you have to use a routine in the form & create a program & do that...

/:PERFORM SPLIT_MAT IN PROGRAM Z_SPLIT

/: USING &MATNR&

/: CHANGING &MAT1&

/:ENDPERFORM.

Or if you know where to split..like after first 4 characters..etc then try to use the below statements to do so...

MATNR+4& Offset - Output begins here. Offset refers to formatted value

&MATNR(5)& Length - Output data in the specified length

Dear Peluku, Nag & Phani,

Thanks for your information, I got it solved !

I am trying other one, but unable to get right output.

I would like to split date into Day, month and year.

So I am doing so.

but it is not working, year field shows only 1char.

/: Set date mask = 'DDMMYY'

&REGUH-ZALDT(2)& &REGUH-ZALDT3(2)& &REGUH-ZALDT5(2)&

Please let me know, where is the mistake.

Thanking you.

Regards

Venkat.

Your character indexing is wrong.

For example A+2(3) means 3 characters in field A starting after the character 2.

So you should be using

&REGUH-ZALDT(2)& &REGUH-ZALDT2(2)& &REGUH-ZALDT4(2)&

Regads,
