Round up character data?

[Former Member]

I am a newbie in SAP.

I have a variable declared like this:

DATA y_dots(6) TYPE c.

I performed some mathematical operation on this variable and it ends up as 56.5.

So do I round up this variable so that it becomes 57 or 56?

Please help and I will reward you.

Thanks

Hi,

DATA N TYPE P DECIMALS 2.

DATA M TYPE P DECIMALS 2 VALUE '5.55',

DATA c_var TYPE I.

N = FRAC( M ).

IF N GE 0.5.

c_var = FLOOR( M ). WRITE: / 'FLOOR:', c_var.

ELSE.

c_var = CEIL( M ). WRITE: / 'CEIL: ', c_var.

ENDIF.

Hi,

Just do like this,

define one local variable with type p then move your field (type c field) into this variable and display this.

sample code shows here how to do that,

DATA: data(5) TYPE c VALUE '12.60',

data1 type p.

data1 = data.

WRITE: data1, data.

it'll solve your problem.
