numc field and initial checking

[Former Member]

numeric field as default state , do we still use the logic to check the field for inital?

field type numc.

if field is inital.

...

else.

endif.

please tell whether it is recommended to check the numc field or not . if not then how can i check wheter the data exists n this field.

Hi,

INITIAL is going to work for all DATA TYPES.The check depends on data type ur using.

So ,go Ahead.

hi govaabaper,

try out the below code

report zars no standard page heading

line-size 170

line-count 65(4).

data : zdate like sy-datum.

data : zdatechar(10) type c.

move space to zdate.

write zdate using edit mask '__ __ ____' to zdatechar.

write zdatechar.
