ALE Conversion Rules

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to use ALE conversion rule to clear data from a field.I want to clear data from field ANRED from segment E1KNVKM.How do I clear data from a field using ALE conversion rule.I tried few things from transaction BD79 and no luck.Some other types of conversion rules worked for me like assigning constants and things like that.

Regards

Have you tried looking for an User exit?

YOu can clear the field there.

How about field reduction?

Hi Nilesh,

Is the message type DEBMAS in question.

You can set the data to constant '/' ( NODATA ) in the conversion rule ( without the quotes ) . This will mean that this field will not be filled/ changed when a Customer is created changed .

Hi Sanjay,

For me the "/" is not working for the desired BLANK. It appears with an actual "/" and not with a BLANK value. Any clue on this?

Thanks

Sanjay

go to the conversion rule you created for the segment. Modify it, select and double click ANRED field. select convert sender field. select the field ANRED and select conditions, in the receiver field enter # in the source criteria enter 0 to zzzz to catch all scenarios

Hi,

In bd79 select the field and change>set as initial value(default)>just save it.

1. create the rule for the idoc segment (BD62)

2. implement the rule for the field(s) in question (BD79)

3. assign the rule to your IDOC message (BD55)

Hi Nilesh,

Have you been able to solve this issue? I have a similar requirement ie to blank a field in the Idoc.

I am working with ORDERS05 IDOC but I guess it apply to your situation. Using BD79 transaction I set Receiver field as constant with the value: u2018#u2019 (only #) and the field is no longer in the IDOC.

Good luck!
