Create a Conversion Exit?

Former Member — Wed, 27 Jun 2007 12:01:49 GMT

Is it possible to create a

conversion exit

and assign a domain? If yes how I can do it? I could copy a conversion exit function it is ok but when I try to add it in a domain I got errors, which says conversion routine z***** does not exist. How can I create it?

Hi,

Yes you can create customer routines. According to OSS Note 41474 it is safe to create a function module that has the conversion exit naming standard (Begins with CONVERSION_EXIT*). You will get a warning that you can ignore. The important part is to have the first letter of your rountine name begin with Z or Y. That way you won't have a conflict with SAP. An example would be:

CONVERSION_EXIT_Z0001_INPUT

Thanks for your help my problem has been solved.

I want to add one more answer for it. You should create 2 FM for Conversion Exit, for input and output. Like this CONVERSION_EXIT_Z***INPUT , CONVERSIONEXIT_Z***_OUTPUT. If you don't create both of then you get an error like me.
