Hi,

This option will come into picture while viewing the entries in the table.

While showing the results, it will execute the conversion routines.

eg for table MARA ( With Conversion exit option )

Matnr will appear like 000000000000011 ( only Nummeric MATNR )

With out Conversion exit, same MATNR will apper as 11

Hope this helps,

hi

We use a conversion exit to define a jump to a conversion routine for a column of your output table. As the exit we specify the <conv> part of a function module called CONVERSION_EXIT_ <conv> _OUTPUT .

For example, you can use conversion exit ALPHA (see function module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT ) to suppress leading zeros of account numbers.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

input = '00000123'

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = data

.

Dta will contain 123 as output .

hope this helps

actually it will be the opposite:

with conversion exit: 11

without conversion exit: 000000000000011 (==> this is the format the data is stored in the table)
