How to convert amount data element to number data element

Dear Gurus,
I have a requirement to get the data by calling BRF+ and then pass them to BAPI 'BAPI_ASSET_ACQUISITION_POST', in the BRF+ export structure, there is a field 'AMOUNT', I bind it to DDIC element 'BF_ANBTR', the type is Number.
In BRF+, I call another global function to calculate the value, I define a local variant LV_VALUE to get export value from this function, this local variant's type is Amount, now I need to move this local variant value to the export field 'AMOUNT'.
But BRF+ doesn't allow to convert amount data element to number data element directly, and I find there is no formula function available. Only there is a function 'TO_AMOUNT' to convert number data element to amount data element.
Please help to get a solution for above solution.
Thanks.

Hi,
within the formula expression within the category "Mathematical functions" you will find the function "TONUMBER". This converts a data element of type currency to a number. According to the help of this function:
"The following conversion rules apply:
<Amount>: The number part is returned. The currency unit is omitted."
This is what you are looking for.
For the other way round you already mentioned the correct function "TO_AMOUNT"

Open conversions in data dictionary

Dear experts,
We have been trying to install an ST-PI package in an SAP system.However,it gives a warning saying "Open conversions in data dictionary". It says - Some open conversion requests still exists for the following ABAP data dictionary objects.To avoid inconsistencies and data losses you must process these conversions first.
Further it asks us to run the transaction SE14 which points towards the table GLPCA and says Index Z1 does not exist.
What can be the cause behind this?I do not have an ABAP background.So,hoping if you could help me out.
Regards,
Minuj

ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER got BINARY

ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER got BINARY
Hi,
Could anyone help in resolving my problem?
I m developing cmp beans in Jbuilder X,
My database is Oracle 10g, running on Linux and Application server is Oracle10gAs. Running on Windows.
I can deploy my Entity EJBs OK and look then up using finder methods as long as Ive created the data directly in the database using SQL*Plus for instance.
In the database I have my primary keys defined as type NUMBER
In my EJB the corresponding number fields get mapped as java.math.BigDecimal.
which according to the Oracle JDBC specification is how they are mapped.
Problem:
When I try to create a new database entity through my EJB entity bean I get:-
Error "ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected NUMBER got BINARY".
The value of the number being used as the primary key in this example is 10.
Eg:-
BigDecimal pk = new BigDecimal(10);
TestBean test = home.create(pk);
The datatype in my EJB Deployment descriptor ejb-jar-xml <pri-key-class> is java.math.BigDecimal>
The jdbc driver defined in my application.xml is
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriverand url="jdbc:oracle:thin..." in the connection.
Ive even tried mapping a datatype as described in the Oracle FAQs but this didnt work.
21.     I'm trying to deploy a CMP entity bean with a field type BigDecimal and the table creation fails with an error. How do I work around this?
You have to perform the following steps prior to deploy your application.
o     Define the mapping for java.math.BigDecimal in the database-schemas/oracle.xml as follows:
<type-mapping type="java.math.BigDecimal" name="number(20,8)" />o     Use this schema in your data-source as follows:-
<data-source
class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
name="OracleDS"
ejb-location="jdbc/OracleDS"
schema="database-schemas/oracle.xml"
connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
username="scott"
password="tiger"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:DEBU"
clean-available-connections-threshold="30"
rac-enabled="false"
inactivity-timeout="30"
/>

Further clarification of my problem.
Originally I said the error occurred when deploying EJB's
Correction: I can deploy them OK on the application server However the Error message occurs when I try to create a new EJB entity, the only value required is the Primary key which I pass as type BidDecimal.
If I create entries directly in the database my EJB findByPrimaryKey can find entities OK.
But I cant create new ones through EJB.
What realy baffels me is why I'm able to read data through the connection but not write.
The datatype in my EJB Deployment descriptor ejb-jar-xml <pri-key-class> is java.math.BigDecimal>
The jdbc driver defined in my application.xml is
oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
and url="jdbc:oracle:thin..." in the connection.

Implicit Conversion from data type sql_variant to datetime is not allowed.

Getting a odd error. This code was working perfectly before a SQLServer upgrade.
The linked database is working, I'm able to pull up data from it in separate queries just fine.
I'm getting the following error.
Implicit conversion from data type sql_variant to datetime is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.
Invalid column name 'TotalDay'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
can anyone spot the issue? I've tried sever variations of the same code, but still get the same thing.
If I put this section in a query by it self it works just fine.

>ANDCONVERT(VARCHAR(10),X3.TimeDate,101)=CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),@sdate,101)
It is not a good idea to use string dates for predicates in WHERE clauses.
Use DATETIME or DATE in predicates.
If you are not interested in the time part of DATETIME, use DATE datatype.
Example:
SELECT CONVERT(DATE, getdate());

Date from Day number and year

Dear experts,
i have day number and year ,i wanted to identify the date
ex: day number=203 year=2009
date:22/07/2009
please advice the best possible way to acheive this.
thanks

Florian:
Given that the OP said his fields were VARCHAR2, and his sample data showed leading zeroes, your original solution will work as posted. If the data had been numeric, another solution would be to just reverse the order of the components.
SQL> WITH t AS (
2     SELECT 2009 yr, 203 day_no FROM dual union all
3     SELECT 2006, 201 FROM dual union all
4     SELECT 1999, 99 FROM dual union all
5     SELECT 2000, 001 FROM dual union all
6     SELECT 1945, 100 FROM dual union all
7     SELECT 1921, 101 FROM dual)
8 SELECT TO_DATE(yr||day_no, 'yyyyddd') dt FROM t;
DT
22-JUL-2009
20-JUL-2006
09-APR-1999
01-JAN-2000
10-APR-1945
11-APR-1921It is the way that format masks are applied that causes his. With your mask and numeric iinput, it is taking the first 3 digits as the day number, in your example 902, then the remainder of them as the year, in your example 9. Obviously, the number of days in a year is never more than 366.
By reversing the mask, the first 4 digits are taken as the year, and the remainder are taken as the day number.

GR date as batch number

Hi Experts,
I have a situation where I should configure the system, so system should automatically create batches at the time of GR and the batch number should be GR date (27102001)
Please suggest.
R.S

I dont know for what reason you use batch managment. We are doing it for quality reasons.
if we get 2 batches of the same material from our vendor, we usually have slightly different quality data, hence we create as well 2 batches in our system.
I kow it is possible that each material can have the same batch number. but if you just use the date as batch number, then you can only have one batch per material and day. so you could never manage above mentioned case.
Maybe it is not a problem with your materials, and you just want 1 batch despite of having serval receipts of the same material on the same day.......but if you have to distiguish, then you need more than just the date, maybe an additional character like A or B or -001 and -002

Stock data of serial number not suitable for movement

We have a situation where we have had to put some serialized parts on a rework production order. When we are trying to bring them back into stock, we're getting a message that says "Stock data of serial number not suitable for movement." I'm guessing that this is because this serial number had existed in stock before (since this is a rework of an existing material/serial number.) We need to receive this back into stock using this same serial number. How is that possible?
Thanks in advance for your help.

IO231: Stock data of serial number &1 not suitable for movement

Hi experts,
I have unique problem with serialized material posting.We are having serialized managed materials which are posted to quality inspection stock.The user was able to post partial quantity to unrestricted after usage decision but when tried to post remainig quantity it is giving error 'IO231: Stock data of serial number &1 not suitable for movement".I checked serial number history in iq02 & it shows that same serial numbers were used for some order in the past which is already delivered.I am not able to understand how it allowed to post same serial numbers again for the same material and if it is normal why it is giving above error when we try to post remaining quantity?
I tried by changing serial profile in the material master with all optional fields and without stock check and equipment and try to post but its not working.
I want to somehow post material to unrestricted use from quality inspection with or without serial numbers.
I am working on 4.7 system
Can u guys help me.
Thanks & Regards,

"You can't compare a date with a number" in a formula that worked in Excel

I opened in Numbers an invoice file which was created in Excel. Formula returns hours worked. It has an "if" condition for the date field. I am assuming that that is the reason I get this "You can’t compare a date with a number because their data types are different." What do I do?
Formula reads =IF(SUM(A11)>0,(D11−C11),"") where A11 is a date and D11- C11 are times, ie 4PM and 5PM
Message was edited by: iamzoran

Jerrold Green1,
I agree with your words about using Sum with a single cell [have no idea why the "creator" of the file did that]; same for the parentheses enclosing subtraction. Yet cleaning it up as you showed me [=IF(A11>0,D11−C11,"") ] I got the same comment
"You can’t compare a date with a number because their data types are different."
Makes me think that t quinn is on to something with his "think the issue is with the expression ">0". Could it be that >0 is the number referred to and <>"" and ISBLANK are not numbers?!

Duration as a timestamp? How odd, most people would store it
as an integer. Or, if you want to build your own string, the syntax
is {ts 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss'}. The seconds might not be required.
In any event, use createodbcdatetime() for the value you want
to put into your table.
