hi guys

i have a custom BAPI with a BDC within it..however im getting an error on process screen saying input value is longer than screen field. i added the code below to go around that error but now again another error occurs

DATA: BEGIN OF itab_amount OCCURS 0,

turnover_local(29) TYPE c,

turnover_export(29) TYPE c,

interest(29) TYPE c,

other_income(29) TYPE c,

tax_on_taxable(29) TYPE c,

credits(29) TYPE c,

provisional_tax(29) TYPE c,

history(1),

END OF itab_amount.

MOVE-CORRESPONDING assessment_import TO itab_amount.

the fields have he same definition data element which is a currency field of 21.2

now i get the error that i shud enter values in the format __,___,___,___,___,___,___.__ since the output length is 29 for the domain of the data element.

please can i have some ideas on how to go around this error??

regards

Hi,Prince,

Try to shorten the fields length in your definition , in sap the length of amount field is often 13.

unfourtunately Pole im in an environment with an inflation rate of 165 000% so within the next few weeks the fields currently accomodating 21 will have to take on more.

anyway i cannot reduce the lengths..

any more ideas??

Isaac,Which tcode you used in BDC? you can not fill data longer than the definition of the fields in standard tcode.
