Dump during fileld symbol assignment.

Former Member — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 14:53:08 GMT

Hi,

Below is the piece of code which is causing a dump:

MOVE : <fs_temp> TO <fs_work> .

Here <fs_temp> is an dynamically created field symbol it has a character type of 'C' and <fs_work> is a dynamically created field symbol of type 'P'.

<fs_temp> has a value '1,001.00' .

Now I want to move this value to <fs_work>, it gives a dump saying it can not recognize 1,001.00 as number. Bothe the filed symbols are dynamically assigned.

Is there any possible way to overcome this.

Regards,

Ravi Kasnale

Dear Ravi,

Data type P will take decimal it will not identify comma.

Please do the string operations remove the comma then please try to move in <fs_work>.

Hope it helps you.

Please let me know your feedback.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Ravi,

Is it possible for you to remove the dynamic assignment of typing to the field symbols and use the generic type of ANY, instead?.

For example:

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_temp> TYPE any

<fs_work> TYPE any.

{{{..then your code assigns values to <fs_temp> and then you can....}}}

ASSIGN <fs_temp> TO <fs_work>.

If you can use"TYPE ANY", you just need to be careful if you then move to a statically defined data type.

You will need to ensure the data is compatible before the move.

Hi Ravi,

you are trying to move the value of character format to pact value. so try to convert character format value to pat format and then move it.

Thanks.

Hi Kim,

No I can not use the 'Type Any' .

<fs_temp> will be always of CHAR type.

<fs_work> will be assigned dynamically with the properties of any ztable field.

In this case it got assigned as type P, so is there any way availabe to copy vallues from Char data type to any other type field symbol.

Hi Ravi,

As you are trying to convert a character value into type P , and since the

<fs_temp> has a value '1,001.00' , it is giving dump because it does not recognize the comma(,) in the value 1,001,00.

Try the following code:

replace all occurence of ',' from <fs_temp> with '.' .

<fs_work> = <fs_temp>.

Now, it would not give you any dump

To be on a safer side , you can also catch the exception:

try.

<fs_work> = <fs_temp>.

CATCH cx_sy_conversion_no_number.

endtry.

Hope this helps,

Thanks,

Hi Ravi,

I looked for a solid coversion exit and method but I could not find one.

I suggest you try Nitin's suggestion.

Be sure to follow his suggestion about CATCHing potential system exceptions.

Before you move the value, you may also want to add a statment to check for characters.

For example:

lr_ref_desc = cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( p_data = <fs_work> ).

CASE lr_ref_desc->type_kind.

WHEN cl_abap_typedescr=>typekind_packed.

IF <fs_temp> CO ' 0123456789'. "include a space in the string

{{ ...then move value..}}}

ELSE.

{{{ raise exception }}}

ENDIF.

ENDCASE,

If you find a conversion method, please let us know.

Kim

Hi Ravi,

As Kim said

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_temp> TYPE any

<fs_work> TYPE any.

ASSIGN <fs_temp> TO <fs_work>. " Here the <fs_work> is of type <fs_temp>.

<fs_work> = <fs_temp>. "Value of fs_temp is moved to fs_work.
