converting string to numeric

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I want to convert string to numeric for some calculation and want to pass the calculated amount back to string. I am using the below given code:

METHOD get_percent_inc_amt.
data: lv_percent TYpe numc3,
      lv_base_sal TYPE i,
      lv_cal_amt TYPE i.

*WRITE iv_base_salary to lv_base_sal.
*WRITE iv_percent to lv_percent.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_STRING_TO_INTEGER'
  EXPORTING
    p_string            = iv_base_salary
 IMPORTING
   P_INT               = lv_base_sal
* EXCEPTIONS
*   OVERFLOW            = 1
*   INVALID_CHARS       = 2
*   OTHERS              = 3
          .
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.


CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_STRING_TO_INTEGER'
  EXPORTING
    p_string            = iv_percent
 IMPORTING
   P_INT               = lv_percent
* EXCEPTIONS
*   OVERFLOW            = 1
*   INVALID_CHARS       = 2
*   OTHERS              = 3
          .
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.

  lv_cal_amt = ( lv_base_sal * lv_percent ) / 100.
   ev_calculated_amt = lv_cal_amt.

ENDMETHOD.

I am getting dump in my application. Can anyone suggest me on how should I do the conversion.

Thanks,

Hello,

Change the type of lv_percent from numc3 to interger (i).

Dump occuring due to type mismatch conflict.

Hi,

What is the dump?

By the way, the FM accepts data type of Integer for theexporting parameter.

You have specified

data: lv_percent TYpe numc3.

Change the data type to integer.

Hi Shilpa

Change the type and it will run fine

Use this

DATA: lv_percent   TYPE i.

It should work fine.
