Data objects in Unicode programs cannot be converted

Former Member — Wed, 08 Jun 2011 07:45:47 GMT

Hi experts,

i am an SAP BW consultant. However i am trying to enhance a standard datasource and i have written a customer exit code for that.

DATA : ZHR_EXTRCT TYPE HRMS_BIW_PY1,

L_TABIX TYPE SY-TABIX.

CASE I_DATASOURCE.

WHEN '0HR_PY_1'.

LOOP AT C_T_DATA INTO ZHR_EXTRCT.

L_TABIX = SY-TABIX.

SELECT ABWTG ENDDA BEGDA SUBTY FROM PA2001 INTO ZHR_EXTRCT

WHERE PERNR = ZHR_EXTRCT-PERNR

AND SUBTY = ZHR_EXTRCT-ZSUBTY.

ENDSELECT.

MODIFY C_T_DATA FROM ZHR_EXTRCT INDEX L_TABIX.

ENDLOOP.

WHEN OTHERS.

EXIT.

ENDCASE.

However, i am getting a short dump saying "Data objects in Unicode programs cannot be converted." and the arrow is pointed at the line LOOP AT C_T_DATA INTO ZHR_EXTRCT.

Can you please tell me if there is a data -type mismatch.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You can do this by yourself, double click on C_T_DATA and check if it is referring to the same data type as that of "ZHR_EXTRCT" that is HRMS_BIW_PY1 (as you have declared "DATA : ZHR_EXTRCT TYPE HRMS_BIW_PY1,").

If you are not sure paste the part of the code where C_T_DATA is declared.

Chen

Type of C_T_DATA and ZHR_EXTRCT is not same and hence you are getting dump.

Please check.
