Convert integer into string

HI,

How to convert integer into string in ABAP.

Is there any function module or there is a way to do in ABAP itself.

Thanks.

If you want from INTEGER to STRING like '10' to 'TEN' than you can use FM SPELL_AMOUNT.


data: p_amt type I,
l_amt like spell.

p_amt = '10'.

CALL FUNCTION 'SPELL_AMOUNT'
 EXPORTING
   AMOUNT          = p_amt
   CURRENCY        = 'USD'
*   FILLER          = ' '
   LANGUAGE        = SY-LANGU
 IMPORTING
   IN_WORDS        = l_amt
 EXCEPTIONS
   NOT_FOUND       = 1
   TOO_LARGE       = 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.

write: l_amt-decword.

If you want a var. with I data stored in C format :

DATA int_var TYPE i.

DATA chr_var(5) TYPE c.

Write int_var to chr_var.

Thanks Naimesh! I didn't have idea about the existence of FM you've just mentioned.

Hi Carlos,

The FM that Naimesh mentioned is usually used to spell amount and display it to cheques... I have seen that FM works in a few of my colleagues assignment on cheques...

Thanks

Hi,

ABAP Supports automatic type conversion for all the data types except for type T and D.

ie..you cannot convert type T to D or viceversa.

eg.converting integer to string.

DATA: val1 TYPE i,

val2(10) TYPE c.

val2 = val1.

Cheers,

Hakim

Hi Naimesh,

I think the FM 'SPELL_AMOUNT' will work for '0-99'.

If we want to print more than '99' then what is the solution?

Thanks,

Anil

If you use the amount variable type like PAYR_FI-RWBTR as in the [Spell_Amount function module|http://www.kodyaz.com/sap-abap/convert-numeric-value-currency-using-spell_amount.aspx] sample, you can convert amounts bigger than 100
