The example includes an example of converting this floating-point decimal into a character field.

data:

floatout like qmih-auszt,

floatp type p decimals 0,

printhr(10).

CALL FUNCTION 'UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE'

EXPORTING

INPUT = qmih-auszt

UNIT_IN = 'S'

UNIT_OUT = 'H'

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = floatout

EXCEPTIONS

CONVERSION_NOT_FOUND = 1

DIVISION_BY_ZERO = 2

INPUT_INVALID = 3

OUTPUT_INVALID = 4

OVERFLOW = 5

TYPE_INVALID = 6

UNITS_MISSING = 7

UNIT_IN_NOT_FOUND = 8

UNIT_OUT_NOT_FOUND = 9

OTHERS = 10.

move floatout to floatp.

move floatp to printhr.

condense printhr.

CONCATENATE

'Number of hours on part at failure: ' printhr INTO text6-tdline.

APPEND text6.

Hello,

I don't know a function module. However, the method I have used to achieve it is:

G_NUM_TEMP TYPE P DECIMALS 2

G_S_IMP_MOM TYPE /GEX/255 --> CHAR of 255

WRITE G_NUM_TEMP TO G_S_IMP_MOM NO-GROUPING LEFT-JUSTIFIED.

"NO-GROUPING in order to not to add thousand separator

"LEFT-JUSTIFIED for correctly doing if the sign is at the end of the number (maybe you shouldn't use it).

Then it is important to:

REPLACE ',' IN G_S_IMP_MOM WITH '.' . "SAP undertands decimals with '.' and not with ','

I hope it will help you.
