Convert to Internal format

[Former Member]

I do have 3 parameters...

Tabname

fieldname

fieldvalue

I want the fieldvalue to be converted to internal format according to the 3 values

The values are determined at runtime so It can not hard code the convertion exit!

These are the input parameters.. right??

[Former Member]

right!

I should give that to the fm and get the internal value!

for example pa0001 - begda - 22.03.2006

ouput should be 20060322

use the fm CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL

Dynamically u can do by writing a program

Use any of the foll. FM

HRGPBS_HESA_DATE_FORMAT

Format a date valid for HESA: DD/MM/YYYY

HRGPBS_TPS_DATE_FORMAT

Format a date valid for TPS: DDMMYY

SLS_MISC_GET_USER_DATE_FORMAT

get the date format the user has defined as his/her default

========================================

REPORT ZES .

data: v_date type char10.

CALL FUNCTION 'HRGPBS_HESA_DATE_FORMAT'

EXPORTING

p_date = sy-datum

IMPORTING

DATESTRING = v_date.

replace all occurences of '/' in v_date with '.' .

write v_date.

Stephan,

You can use fieldcatalog and do something like:

CALL FUNCTION 'LVC_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE'
                  EXPORTING i_structure_name       = tabname
                            i_client_never_display = 'X'
                  CHANGING  ct_fieldcat = t_fieldcat.
READ TABLE t_fieldcat ASSIGNING <fcat>
                       WITH KEY fieldname = fieldname.
CALL FUNCTION 'G_CONVERT_INPUT'
      EXPORTING CONVERTED_LENGTH    = <fcat>-intlen
                CONVEXIT            = <fcat>-convexit
                DATATYPE            = <fcat>-datatype
                INPUT_LENGTH        = <fcat>-intlen
                INPUT_VALUE         = fieldvalue
*               LENGTH              = 0
*               LOWERCASE           = 'X'
*               FLAG_CONVERT_SPACE  =
      IMPORTING CONVERTED_VALUE     = new_fieldvalue.

Got your point.

Go to the table DD03L .. Get the Domain by passing the tabname & fieldname.

Now go to the table DD01L.. Pass the Domain which you have got from the previous step, and get the Conversion routine name.

concatenate CONVERSION_EXIT_<conv routine name>_INPUT and make use of this function module.

I hope it solves your purpose. Get back to me in case of doubt
