you can't convert float data. better use packed data. TYPE P.

that can be changed to string easily bys using uppack statement.

refer F1 help for UNPACK statement.

Hi,

Use THis FM

&----

*& Form sub_fltp_to_char *

&----

This form converts cycle from floating to character format *

----

FORM sub_fltp_to_char .

*--Local constants

CONSTANTS: lc_dec TYPE i VALUE 0.

*--Clear Variable

CLEAR v_cycle.

IF NOT v_unit IS INITIAL.

*--Call function module to convert cycle & offset from floating to

character

CALL FUNCTION 'FLTP_CHAR_CONVERSION_FROM_SI'

EXPORTING

char_unit = v_unit

decimals = lc_dec

fltp_value_si = v_offset

indicator_value = c_check

IMPORTING

char_value = v_cycle

EXCEPTIONS

no_unit_given = 1

unit_not_found = 2

OTHERS = 3.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

ENDIF.

ENDIF. "IF NOT v_offset IS INITIAL.

ENDFORM. "sub_fltp_to_char

to convert float data to int their is no need use any function module just assign float type to int type in your program for e.g if you have float column in table then assing that column to int column in internal table in your program.

Try to use next FM 'CEVA_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_CHAR'.

You can try this code:

DATA:

lv_measure TYPE imrc_recdv,

lv_format(16) TYPE p DECIMALS 1,

lv_value(16) TYPE c.

CALL FUNCTION 'CEVA_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_CHAR'

EXPORTING

float_imp = lv_measure

format_imp = lv_format

IMPORTING

char_exp = lv_value.
