Hi i have a variable of type packed decimal whose value is 1.1. I move this value into a variable of type char length 6 and when i display, it displays 1.1, i want it to be displayed as 0001.1 How can i do that?

Hi Kantheri,

<b>Use TYPE N variable and assign packed decimals value to this.</b>

DATA V_PDEC TYPE P DECIMALS 1 VALUE '1.1'.

DATA V_LNUM(4) TYPE N.

V_LNUM = V_PDEC.

WRITE:/ V_LNUM. <b>--->0001</b>

Thanks,

Hi ,

you can use his FM

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

input = lv_var

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = lv_var

.

use <b> type n</b> instead of char.

Hi

Pass the decimal value to variable quant type char6

quan1 type char4

quan2 type char2.

split quan at '.' into quan1 quan2.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

input = quan1

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = quan1.

concatenate quan1 quan2 into quant separated by '.'.

This should solve it
