how to get values

[Former Member]

Hi,

Iam trying to get values from IE02->class overview->charecteristic values using BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL.

In this BAPI iam getting date values in char format like

2.0050922000000000E07,2.0050923000000000E07.

How can i convert these values into date format?

Hi Kaki,

You can use Function module :

CTCV_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_DATE

Please pass you float value(2.0050922000000000E+07) and this will convert your float valueto internal date format(as 20050922).

Hope this will help you.

Lanka suggestion works good too. Basically does the same thing.

report  zrich_0001.


data: char(30) type c value '2.0050922000000000E+07'.
data: f type CAWN-ATFLV.
data: date type sy-datum.

f =  char.
call function 'CTCV_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_DATE'
  exporting
    float = f
  importing
    date  = char.

date = char.
write:/ date.

If that value is truly coming in a character field, you can do something like this.

report  zrich_0001.


data: char(30) type c value '2.0050922000000000E+07'.
data: f type f.
data: p(5) type p.
data: date type sy-datum.

f =  char.

p  = f .
char = p.
shift char left deleting leading space.
date = char.

write:/ date.
