Data type selection Problem in ztable to use in the Module Pool Program

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I have created a z-table which is used in Module Pool Program in which i have to save the information saved by the endusers in z-table. But the problem comming is that the amount of information saved by the endusers is so havey & our table is just limited for the 50 characters which is not sufficiet. So I urge you to please tell me what & which type of data type should I have to use to store maximum amount of information in our zt-able which is available in SAP ECC6.0.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Nabheet,

Actually I have to store the maximux amount of information "in characters (CHAR)" to the fields in z-table through Module Pool Program. Module Pool is working fine and also it is saving the information in the ztable. But main problem is to store only 50 CHAR & my requirement is to save that information more that 50 CHAR & also more than 255 CHAR. Plz suggest.

Hello

please explain it clearly...

what type of data you are going to store . what is the datatype of the field you are using.

if you need a field to store more than 50 characters , then use this field type >> SOLISTI1-LINE ,

it can store upto 255 characters.

please let me know if u need any further info..

Hi friend,

You can use the data type string for saving the data. String variable will be getting more that 50 Char. Also you can store it in the table.

I think you must be using a Ztable IE a customizing table so you can change that field alone to string.

If you don't want string char just go for char255 data type. Which will store more than 50 char.

I think this will solve your issue. If you have queries please revert back to me. I will help you.

Thanks,

Dear Akg,

u can resolve ur problem in following ways,

1. You can declare the field in a table without an Data element.

i.e. In the length field . using F4 help in length field how many characters u want u enter.

2. In the same u can search for an standard data element and use the same.

3. Creating an custom data element .

Reward if helps to u!!!

Hi,

Use Data element AKB_LONGNOTE to your field. For this data element there is no length restriction since it is of type string.

Hello Supriya,

AKB_LONGNOTE data element is used like an string but my requirement is to store the characters not in strings but like character which is just limited for 255 characters. But thanks for kind consideration.
