Question about SAPScript

[former_member220801]

I need to display 2 fields value in a line, so I add two sysmbol '&field1&' and '&field2'. But '&field1' sometimes needed to suppress in some situation.

I handle it by creating 2 two text element 'Item1' and 'Item2'. Item1 contains only field2 while Item2 contains both. So I check it in my ABAP program, and determine which text element will be used.

Is there any better way to do this?

Can I use 'IF...ENDIF' in this case? How to use it if field1 is a numeric field and suppress when it is zero?

Thanks!

You can use conditional statements in SAPScript:

Visit <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/d1/80318f454211d189710000e8322d00/frameset.htm">SAP Script - Control Commands</a> for more details..

Any other problem please let us know.

i THINK YOU CAN DO:

IF &FIELD1& = 0.

&FIELD2&

ELSE.

&FIELD1& &FIELD2&

ENDIF.

I am using the graphical form painter.

When I click the insert command icon,

there are sysbols, command, text element, comment, sap characters and link for me to choose?

I have chosen 'Command' and type the following command

IF &FIELD1& <> 0. &FIELD1&. ENDIF.

but there is error....

You have to do multiple commands...line 1 has

IF &FIELD1& <> 0.

line2:

&FIELD1&

line3:

ENDIF.

Hi Vinayak,

I think this is because the variable has decimal places and sapscript gets confused. Declare a constant in your abap say, c_zero, of the same type as field1 but with a value of 0. Change your sapscript to:

IF &FIELD1& <> &c_zero&.

line2: service tax &FIELD1&

line3: ENDIF.

Yes, I think there is something confused when passing value to SAPScript form.

I have field1 of data type CURR(13,2).

IF &field1& <> 0.

&field1&

ENDIF.

It doesn't work

But

IF &field1& <> ' 0.00'. <- 9 space before 0.00

&field1&

ENDIF.

It works.

Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks!
