Table T006

Former Member — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 12:02:24 GMT

Hi,

I want to do volume conversion from CCM, CDM to M3.

So I have used the Function module UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE.

When I execute this FM through program, I get the output but how to check whether the output given by this FM is correct or not.

This FM is based on table T006. So I entered CCM in the field MSEHI of the table T006. Now what should I check so that I will come to know whether the output is correct or not?

Thanks in advance.

Nitin.

UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE is released to customers since more than ten years. It works OK based on what it finds in T006 and T006D, period.

Try converting units within the same dimension where you know the relation and confirm with your calculator.

Check table T006D for the base unit of each dimension.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the reply.

The units i.e. CCM & M3 belong to the same dimesion (Volume)

Let me describe it with an example:

In the FM UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE, I passed the following values:

Input quantity = 2

Input Unit = CCM (Since incoming unit is CCM)

Output Unit = M3 (Since I want to convert CCM to M3)

After executing this FM, I get the output as :

Output quantity = 1,9999999999999999E-06

Now I want to cross check whether this output is correct or not.

So I went to table T006 and I entered CCM in the MSEHI field. I can see one entry for this unit.

Now my question is : what should I check in this table T006 so that I will come to know whether the output is correct or not?

What I tried saying is that you don't need to check what T006 contains, because this FM works correctly with the values it finds in T006.

For your example, 2 ccm correctly translates to 0.000002 m3 (round about 1,9999999999999999E-06).

If you still must check the settings, you'll have to factor in ZAEHL and NENNR in T006 for unit CCM compared to target (and in this case dimension) unit M3 (should be 1 to 1,000,000)
