Effect

If the field f has a conversion routine in the ABAP Dictionary, this is placed in the field mask in the form "==conv". " conv" stands for the name of the conversion routine; for example, " ==ALPHA" for the conversion routine " ALPHA". You can use the contents of mask in this form in the USING EDIT MASK mask addition of the WRITE statement.

Example

Check whether the "Customer number" field in the table SBOOK has a conversion routine:

TABLES SBOOK.

DATA: CONV_EXIT(10).

DESCRIBE FIELD SBOOK-CUSTOMID EDIT MASK CONV_EXIT.

IF CONV_EXIT <> SPACE. ... ENDIF.

Result: CONV_EXIT contains the value "==ALPHA".

The following example that uses editing template EDIT MASK for the WRITE command

DATA TIME TYPE T VALUE '154633'.

WRITE (8) TIME USING EDIT MASK '__:__:__'. "Output: 15:46:33

In this example, the internal length (of type T) is six characters, while the output length is eight.
