How to convert one data type to another data type in ABAP programing

[Former Member]

Hi expert,

I am facing the problem while data is moving is from one data type(I, P, F) to CHAR data type then I am getting '#' and not getting proper value.

So how to get the proper value ?

either any Function module for conversion exit avilable or any other alternate avilable.

Could anyone suggest me on this.

Waiting for quick response.

Check the length of your CHAR data type...................its length might be less than ur value.........

Dear Bansi,

Declare Character Type Data with length as follows:

DATA M_FIELD(100) type c.

It will automatically adjust the other data type values.

Hi,

To Convert Float value to char value to send in final file use following FM:

CALL FUNCTION 'FLTP_CHAR_CONVERSION'
          EXPORTING
            decim = 2
            expon = 0
            input = char_value
            ivalu = 'X'
          IMPORTING
            flstr = v_char.

In input youu can specify value with float data type

Hi,

Firstly, check the length of the character field. It should be adequate. And also use write or move statement instead of '='.
