Hi joseph,

If ur variable is of type C and size 10 and the value of that variable is 3456.

when u display it it will come by 3456.

but if u use unpack var to var.

then the value will be 0000003456.

Hi Frankln,

Please find the piece of code .

LOOP AT it_mara INTO wa_mara.

************************************************************

this syntax is used for truncating leading zeros like
'0000000018' = '18'. but if data is like 'ABCD' then
it gives Dump.

**pack wa_mara-matnr to e_matnr.

************************************************************

******************************************************************

this function module changes matnr '00000018' = '18'

'ABCD' = 'ABCD'

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

input = wa_mara-matnr

IMPORTING

output = e_matnr.

*******************************************************************

WRITE:/ e_matnr ,

25 wa_mara-mtart ,

45 wa_mara-meins .

ULINE.

WRITE:/65 'Plant' .

LOOP AT it_marc INTO wa_marc.

WRITE:/65 wa_marc-werks.

ENDLOOP.

Reward Points if Helpful .
