Convert input into an output

Former Member — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 12:55:48 GMT

Hi,

i get an external value in this format:

1.4651 and will convert it to this 0001.4651000

551.46 and will convert it to this 0551.4600000

which means 4 digits befor '.' with leading '0'

and 7 digits behind '.' with ending '0'

Any idea?

Regards, Dieter

Hi,

try this.

Split the varaible at '.' into 2 local variables.

now find the length of the first variable.

if its is less than 4, then keep concatenating 0 in front of the variable.

Pusedo code.

split l_org_value at '.' into l_num1 l_num2.

l_size = strlen(l_num1).

l_size = 4-l_size.

while l_size LT 4 and l_size GT 0.

concatenate '0' l_num1 into l_num1.

l_size = l_size - 1.

end while.

concatenate l_num1 '.' l_num2 into l_org_val.

Reward points if useful,

Regars,

Hi,

try this code..


DATA : var TYPE char20 VALUE '551.46',
       var2 TYPE char20,
       var3 TYPE char20,
       len TYPE i.



SPLIT var AT '.' INTO var2 var3.
len = 4 - STRLEN( var2 ).
DO len TIMES.
  CONCATENATE '0' var2 INTO var2.
ENDDO.
len = 7 - STRLEN( var3 ).
DO len TIMES.
  CONCATENATE  var3 '0' INTO var3.
ENDDO.
CLEAR var.

CONCATENATE var2 var3 INTO var SEPARATED BY '.'.
WRITE :/ var.

Hi,

As I understand you've got (internal) value like 1.4651 and you'd like to display it in external format 0001.4651000.

In such case you should use the coversion routines (function modules). Have a look the at domain KUNR (transaction SE11). It uses routine ALPHA which contains function modules: CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT and

<b>CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT</b>.

You can implement the similiar procedure which adds 7 digits after.

Best Regards

Adam

Hi,

thanks for your answers.

I have solved it in this way:

DATA: C01(12) VALUE '12.56'.

DATA: C04(04).

DATA: C07(07).

DATA: C12(12).

DATA: POS TYPE I.

DATA: LEN TYPE I.

C01 = '12.56'.

SPLIT C01 AT '.' INTO C04 C07.

C12 = '0000.0000000'.

LEN = STRLEN( C04 ).

POS = 4 - LEN.

C12+POS(LEN) = C04(LEN).

LEN = STRLEN( C07 ).

C12+5(LEN) = C07(LEN).

WRITE: / C01, C12.

C01 = '5512.567'.

SPLIT C01 AT '.' INTO C04 C07.

C12 = '0000.0000000'.

LEN = STRLEN( C04 ).

POS = 4 - LEN.

C12+POS(LEN) = C04(LEN).

LEN = STRLEN( C07 ).

C12+5(LEN) = C07(LEN).

WRITE: / C01, C12.
