Module Pool Error: Calculation Field is too Small.

Former Member — Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:25:54 GMT

Hi all,

I am making a module pool program in which I have to capture the gross weight and tare weight.

I am importing the weight from the weigh bridge and the Importing medium is .net.

I have made an internal table with two fields.

cl_gui_frontend_services=>clipboard_import(

IMPORTING

data = it_weight

EXCEPTIONS

cntl_error = 1

error_no_gui = 2

not_supported_by_gui = 3

LOOP AT it_weight INTO wa_weight.

ST_REF-GROSS_WEIGHT = wa_weight-in.

ST_REF-TRUCK_WEIGHT = wa_weight-out.

ENDLOOP.

Both the fields are of type P.

But I am getting this error.

Calculation Field is too Small.

Hi,

when you define a variable type P you could specify the size. Witch size did you define, what it is the value SAP try to put in it ?

Hi Frederic,

I have define the variable type P decimals 5.

Still it is giving error.

I cant declare the variable length in Module pool screen so in that screen i have maintained the field as type decimal.

You define the dynpro ? you could make a reference to the dictionary and you could define the size of the field with the dictionary

no ?

hi Yash

the length of GROSS_WEIGHT or TRUCK_WEIGHT can`t small than wa_weight-in or out.

i think the module pool screen can define the length.

you can choose D16D as type. only large than wa_weight-in or out.

Hi Dengyong.

I didnt get you.

What is D16D.

Actaully I am getting the values in clipboard but it is some junk value.

E.g if i copy 6000 3000 in notepad and when my code gets executed the system show some 36600000.00000 333000000.00000 value.

does the dynpro have anything to do with this? Is it an error message on the dynpro, or a dump, generated from the method clipboard_import( )?

Hi Yash,

As you told in module pool screen you defined type as Decimal better to define it as UNIT because Quantity all ways need to refer to type QUAN. And in program you define type as p length 13 decimals 3.

For more refenece abt type you can see domain MENG13.

Thank You Vineesh.

But I am capturing weight in this module pool.

Re: Module Pool Error: Calculation Field is too Small.

Former Member — Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:23:45 GMT

Dynpro has nothing do with this. But when I capture the weight it is giving runtime error.

Hi,

what is the content of wa_weight-in and wa_weight-out. Maybe there is a conversion issue with decimal points or something like that ...

Regards,

Klaus

Former Member — Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:31:17 GMT

Hi Klaus ,

But both the types are same.

In which line processing of your code do you get the error?

Re: Module Pool Error: Calculation Field is too Small.

Former Member — Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:45:59 GMT

LOOP AT it_weight INTO wa_weight.

ST_REF-GROSS_WEIGHT = wa_weight-in.

ST_REF-TRUCK_WEIGHT = wa_weight-out.

ENDLOOP.

when I get some junk value in the itab (IT_WEIGHT).

When the value which i am getting is transfferd to the ST_RED-GROSS_WEIGHT

the junk value also have 6 decimal place and in my declaration it is also having 6 decimal place.

By default type P has 8 Byte which is 15 digits. If you have DECIMALS 6 then you will have 9 digits before decimal point and 6 digits after it.

But you can increase ST_REF-GROSS_WEIGHT to ST_REF-GROSS_WEIGHT(16), then you have place for 31 digits with 25 digits before and 6 after decimal poitn.

Make sure, that you hve no unicode conversion issue (every second Byte will contain '00'.

I have define the variable type P decimals 5.

So implicitly a length 8 (P) so maximum is 9999999999.99999, should be enough for a truck. If not use a bigger length.

Else I could only suppose the clipboard contains some thousand separator(s) and/or an unrecognized decimal separator, you could try to remove unwanted character and condense the string before the compute.

Also how did you define the internal table it_weight ?

Raymond

Klaus the problem is as below. :

the value which i copy for clipboard import is different and the value which is imported is different.

the value which I have copied is a 4 digit value. but system returns some other value with 6 decimal plac and 10 before decimal.

hi,

you can try change the type of the field 'IN' and 'OUT' to c, length 4.

then

LOOP AT it_weight INTO wa_weight.

MOVE wa_weight-in to ST_REF-GROSS_WEIGHT.

MOVE wa_weight-out TO ST_REF-TRUCK_WEIGHT.

ENDLOOP.

but previous that, you must know the length of GROSS_WEIGHT and RUCK_WEIGHT. you can debug to check it.

Archer

Hi Yash,

I have also worked in the Iron Ore and Mining Industry as an ABAPer for more than 1 year. I had exactly the same requirement. I used WS_EXECUTE and CLPB_IMPORT function modules to execute the 3rd party software.

Anyway in the above code, there are 2 fields, for which field it is showing too small?
