number convert

[Former Member]

hi,

if want to convert posnr from 500001 to 000010, 500002 to 000020 and so on what can i do?

i need to loop through an internal table for this and how do i know when it meets 500001 until maybe 500100 as i need to convert it to 000010 to 001000.

thanks

Hi,

Check this.

DATA: i_posnr LIKE vbap-posnr VALUE '500001',
      o_posnr LIKE vbap-posnr.

o_posnr = ( i_posnr - 500000 ) * 10.

You can write the below given statement inside you loop.

o_posnr = ( i_posnr - 500000 ) * 10.

Lets do a little math, if the number always starts with 5.

data: posnr(6) type n value '500001'.

posnr = posnr - 500000.
posnr = posnr * 10.

hi,

let say i already have the number until 000040. i need to continue and start from 000050 for 500001.

i need to loop to check until which number it stops and continue with this 500001 as 000050.

how should i do so?

thanks

Hi,

In that case your code would be like this.

*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*

DATA: i_posnr LIKE vbap-posnr VALUE '500001',
      o_posnr LIKE vbap-posnr.

DATA: l_posnr LIKE vbap-posnr VALUE '000040'.

o_posnr = ( i_posnr - 500000 ) * 10.

o_posnr = o_posnr + l_posnr.

*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*

So, if you are looping the internal table, then write these statments in loop. Here l_posnr holds the starting line item number, let's say 000040

o_posnr = ( i_posnr - 500000 ) * 10.
o_posnr = o_posnr + l_posnr.

Let me know if you have any question.

hi,

how do i know it stops at 000040 before i convert the 5series to continue as 000050.

Hi,

you do not need to know anything.

See,

o_posnr = ( i_posnr - 500000 ) * 10.

always gives '000010' saying your internal table always start from 500001. That means o_posnr always has value '000010' to begin with.

Now, let say you have already reached to '000040' before converting 5 series nos. Let's say whatever current line item number you have is store in variable l_posnr.

So, now o_posnr = '000010' and l_posnr = '000040'.

When you do <b>o_posnr = o_posnr + l_posnr.</b>, it will give you '000050'. Which you want/

Now, say you already have l_posnr = '000100'. In that case you should start with '000110'. Now based on my formula above, o_posnr begin with '000010'

So, o_posnr = o_posnr + l_posnr means ( 000010 + 000100 ) = 000110.

Let me know if you still have any question.

Hi,

This works for u. Check out this sample code :

DATA : i TYPE i,

j TYPE i.

DATA : BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 0,

text TYPE string,

END OF itab.

i = 1.

DO 100 TIMES.

itab-text = 500000 + i.

APPEND itab.

i = i + 1.

ENDDO.

CLEAR i.

LOOP AT itab.

i = 0.

i = i + 1.

WHILE itab-text+i(1) EQ '0'.

i = i + 1.

ENDWHILE.

j = itab-text+i.

j = j * 10.

WRITE 😕 j, itab-text+i.

ENDLOOP.
