Hi all,

I have a BSEG-PROJK type NUMC(8) variable and one xyz type CHAR(50) variable.

I have to pass value from xyz to BSEG-PROJK

my e.g is that while I am passing

xyz= 'M-000064'

BSEG-PROJK = xyz

then the value of BSEG-PROJK is 00000064 but i need M-000064

Common sense tells me the 'M' in 'M-000064' is not numeric. Why do you expect this to be copied to a numeric field ?

First check the field definition in the dictionnary, BSEG-PROJK. the data element is PS_PSP_PNR, and the domain is PS_POSNR. This domain uses a conversion exit ABPSP, so from domain definition we can see that

- the internal value has a 8 numeric length format

- the external value has a 24 character length format

You can use the FM CONVERSION_EXIT_ABPSP_INPUT and CONVERSION_EXIT_ABPSP_OUTPUT to convert between the two formats.

BUT BSEG table has PROJK field with value M-000064.

and in my requirement i have to put that value to BSEG-PROJK

Hi,

The value M-000064 is showing in field PROJK of BSEG, due to the conversion routine ABPSP attached in the domain level of this field.

- To check the actual value stored in data base level

- SE16 Give table name=>to see the table contents Press F7=>settings=>user parameters=> uncheck the check box check conversion exit.

- now the value in field PROJK will show in numeric.
