Don't use character operations. There's no need.

As you present the query, it seems you have a decimal number and you want it to become an integer. You don't say how the decimal number is stored - it could be string, character, floating point or packed decimal. In any case, use the inbuilt function "trunc". Here's a sample program to show how it works.

DATA: my_pd  TYPE p LENGTH 8 DECIMALS 2,
      my_fp  TYPE f,
      my_char TYPE c LENGTH 8,
      my_str TYPE string.

my_pd = '12.34'.
my_fp = '12.34567'.
my_char = '12.34567'.
my_str = `12.34567`.

PERFORM to_int USING: 'PD' my_pd,
                      'FP' my_fp,
                      'CHAR' my_char,
                      'STR' my_str.


FORM to_int USING desc TYPE clike
                  valu TYPE any.

  DATA: my_int TYPE i.

  my_int = TRUNC( valu ).

  WRITE: / desc, valu, my_int.

ENDFORM.                    "to_int

Hi,

Please refer to the below code:

data : num1 type p decimals 2 value '10.20'.
data : num2 type i.

num2 = num1.

write : num2.
