Hi,

Why are you looking for function module, you can write simple logic.

IF variable < 0.

variable = variable * -1.

ENDIF.

HI = '-asdas'.

WRITE HI.

REPLACE ALL OCCURreNCES OF '-' IN hi WITH '+'.

hi,

You can use ABS (var). It will give you all the positive values.

Concatenate all with '+' symbol.

I hope this will help.
