Parameter cannot be converted to anumber

[8it8]

Hey,

I've created in include SEL this sum parameter:

PARAMETERS: p_sum type i.

In the CLI include I WROTE THIS select:

CLASS lcl_main_sfp IMPLEMENTATION.

  METHOD select_data.

    SELECT mara~matnr, mara~mtart, makt~maktx, mara~ersda
      UP TO p_sum ROWS
      FROM mara
      INNER JOIN makt
      ON makt~matnr = mara~matnr
    INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE @mt_table.

  ENDMETHOD.

and I get the following error:

What can be the problem? is't this from the same type?

Hi,

Try like this:

  SELECT
    *
    UP TO @p_num ROWS
    INTO TABLE @DATA(it_tmp)
    FROM mara INNER JOIN makt
    on mara~matnr = makt~matnr.

You activated the strict mode for ABAP SQL statement as soon as you used the @ in the resulting internal table. So use also @p_sum for the host variable.

It works in S/4HANA 1909(ABAP Platform 1909). what is the version of your system?

[8it8]

so how to deal with this?

Thanks.

I really had to get rid of the @ from the table and actually there was another issue (very simple...)

the SEL INCLUDE was below the the CLI include.....

To answer your quote "how to deal with this", did you realize what Raymond and Eduardo have said before you ask? (@p_sum instead of p_sum)

Hello 8it8

Your SELECT statement would be syntactically correct if:

• P_NUM is indeed of I type,
• P_NUM is escaped with @ as you have already escaped MT_TABLE with @ thus using the new Open SQL syntax.

You have declared P_NUM as a parameter with I type, still you get the error about P_NUM not being a number. That is strange and I suspect that you have also defined P_NUM as a parameter of the SELECT_DATA method.

Would you be able to share the declaration of the method?

Best regards
