Generate sequence numbers

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am looking for an algorithm to generate alphanumeric sequence numbers in ABAP.

The sequence numbers should be in the following format

AAAA

AAAB

AAAC

.

.

.

AAAZ

AABA

AABB

AABC

.

.

.

AABZ

.

.

.

ZZZZ

Is there any built-in function module provided by SAP to accomplish this? Or something like a FOR statement as in C/C++?

Please help.

Helpful answers will be immediately rewarded.

Thank you.

Hi,

I'm not sure, but maybe you can create a number range with SNRO for alphanumerical values

otherwise you have to create your own logic (you can use hexadecimal to ascii conversion in ABAP to increment the alphanumerical values)

Kind regards, Rob Dielemans
