Read first some documentation like [Character String Processing|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/79/c554d9b3dc11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm], usually hexadecimal fields contain control characters (line feed, carriage return, tabulations and the like), so use constants of class [CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENCL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES.htm].

Need to assign a multi datatype struct to a single field in Unicode system

Hi all,
I had posted an earlier question related to this to understand what the issue is. Few responses helped. Then now I have gone thru the conversion rules in Unicode systems related to assigning a structure (with different data types) to a single field and looking for a solution for my case. The current code written in 4.6 says
l_bapiparex-valuepart1 = l_bape_vbap
where
l_bape_vbap is a structure of type bape_vbap and
l_bapiparex of type bapiparex.
So according to the rules, when I do this kind of an assignment in ECC , the first field's length (i.e. VBELN) must be min 240 characters long. Only then this assignment will be error free, am I right ?
Or Is this an inadmissable assignment situation ?
If not then is there any other way how I can achieve the same result by fixing this issue ? I am not able to think of any !! Has any one come across this kind of an issue during upgrade? Please do suggest.
Just for your reference I have pasted the rule details from SAP help..
Conversion in Unicode Programs
The following rules apply in Unicode programs when converting a flat structure to a single field and vice versa:
If a structure is purely character-like, it is processed during conversion like a data object of the type c (Casting). The single field can have any elementary data type.
If the structure is not purely character-like, the single field must have the type c and the structure must begin with a character-like fragment that is at least as long as the single field. The assignment takes place only between this fragment and the single field. The character-like fragment of the structure is treated like a data object of the type c (Casting) in the assignment. If the structure is the target field, the remaining character-like fragments are filled with blanks and all other components with the initial value that corresponds to their type.
No conversion rule is defined for any other cases, so that assignment is not possible.
Note
If a syntax error occurs due to an inadmissible assignment between flat structures and single fields, you can display the fragment view of the corresponding structure when displaying the syntax error in the ABAP Editor by choosing the pushbutton with the information icon.
thanks

Try this way
      call method cl_abap_container_utilities=>fill_container_c
        exporting
          im_value               = l_bape_vbap
        importing
          ex_container           = l_bapiparex-valuepart1
        exceptions
          illegal_parameter_type = 1
          others                 = 2.

Converting DECIMAL field in R/3 into CHAR field on BW

Hi all,
   We have a field in R/3 which is defined as :
      Data Type : Decimal
      Length      : 6
      Decimal Places : 2
     I want to receive it into CHAR field on BW side.
     How could I convert it, please. What should be length of this CHAR field in BW?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Venkat,
Create a character infoobject of length 18. Include the infoobject in your data target and map the key figure value to the character infoobject by writting the following update routine for the character infoobject.
Result = comm_structure-xxxxxx (xxxxxx = key figure infoobject you want to map for example say comm_structure-net_price if key figure is 0net_price)
Please assign points if it helps,

Dear Veerandra,
I have already checked in R/3 as you had mentioned. But as I said earlier, could not catch the correct record, since, did not had proper info. UMSA1 refers to Annual Sales, which are empty in R/3 and BW as well.
I have undertaken the following actions but all failed.
1. Replicated the data source, activated the transfer structure through a program and the load was run but the load failed with the same issue.
2. Pushed the data till PSA and tried to edit it in the PSA, but here too the load failed with the same issue.

Converting from NUMC field in R/3 into CHAR field on BW

Hi all,
We have a field (COST) which is defined as NUMC 6 with DECIMAL 2 like12.50 in R/3. I want to receive it into CHAR field on BW side.
What is the simplest way to convert it, please. What should be the CHAR length in BW?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Hi Venkat,
I don't have any sample code for this. You will create one local variable in the trasnfer routine. Accept the NUMC value in that local variable and then assign that local variable to the final destination i.e. to CHAR InfoObject.

Can't format a char field as a date

I have a char field coming in from a table that really is a date. I wanted to display the YYYYMMDD char field as MM/DD/YYYY.
I could not get any conversion (CDate) to work and I can't figure out how to set field[0,4] = year and so on, so I could come back and build the string.
Can somebody help me?

I have a field that should be a DATE type, but is instead a VARCHAR2(8). The data in the VARCHAR2(8) field is displayed as what looks like a date -- EX: 09/18/09. I need to be able to convert the VARCHAR2(8) field so that it brings back the spelled out month plus the numeric day and year -- EX: September 18, 2009.
I've been able to successfully convert a DATE type to the needed format (September 18, 2009) using the following syntax line, but now need to convert the VARCHAR2(8):
to_char(jud_report_hear_off_v.incdate,'fmMonth dd, yyyy,') as INCDATE
Your help is appreciated!!!

Joining RAW field with CHAR field

Hi fellows,
I need to join two tables within one view. In table 1 there is a ID of RAW/16. The same value but in different type (char/70) is placed in table 2. How can I manage a join on that IDs with these tables? I tried to convert the types by using FM SCMS_TEXT_TO_BINARY. Unfortunatly this converts not only the type but also the value which has to be the exactly same after "type conversion".
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers
Tobias

Since the referring ID has to be the key field I am not able to use another one. Furthermore I cannot change the type of the RAW16 field as it is a SAP standard table.
With which type do I fill RAW fields through Open SQL statements? Char / String doesn't work.
Cheers
Tobias

HOW TO TRANSFER DATA FROM CHAR TYPE TO NON CHAR TYPE

HI EXPORTS,
THIS IS SASIDHAR, I HAD UPLOADED DATA FROM FLAT FILE INTO DYNAMICAL INTERNAL TABLE NAME <T_UPLOAD>. THIS INTERNAL TABLE FIELDS ARE CONVERTED INTO CHAR TYPE FIELDS. NOW I HAVE TO TRANSFER THIS DATA INTO ANOTHER INTERNAL TABLE <DYN_TABLE> WHICH CONTAINS BOTH CHARACTER AND NON CHARACTER FIELDS. PLEASE ANY ONE GUIDE ME REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
THANKS AND REGARDS
SASIDHAR.V

there is no specific CASTING operation in ABAP, so just do following:
non-char-field = char-field.
as long as it is possible ABAP does implicit casting and you dont have to care about anything.

At run time you can see all the data........ like what i have shown...
but if you clearly see, DATE will be in the internal format..but if you print it, it will be in dd:mm:yyyy
can you suggest me if i have a dynamic field symbol (table data) ,,,, How can i convert data types dynamically..
if it is a static internal table i am achieving with WRITE TO statement.....but i have huge data in field symbols...
Instead of all these , please specify the exact problem your are facing . What is it with date field ? . In SAP while printing the internal format will be converted to external. What is your requirement with this date field?
My output looks some thing like this:
04 36876 15.09.2011 39600 1999
06 36960 15.09.2011 39600 2632
07 36874 15.09.2011 39541 9232
My expected output
04 36.876 15.09.2011 39.600 1.999
06 36.960 15.09.2011 39.600 2.632
07 36.874 15.09.2011 39.541 9.232
I dont see any problems mentioned in your date field. Both your actual and expected outputs reflects the same in date field.
In SCN you will only get solutions if your question is precise.

Unicode Program : # is appearing for data types declared as char type

Hi friends,
I have copied one program on unicode system to unicode system. As only char type data types are allowed, i converted structure EP to char type only. Now during execution it is giving dump because it is showing value as '#' for 2 fields whos original data type was P and currency. How shall i convert them? Any suggession will helpful.

Hi Sandeep,
This is my piece of code : Initially structure EP was used in read dataset which is of different datatypes. so i created similar structure ep_c with data type as char. As u suggested, i tried to declare field BETRG as type currency. Then also it gave dump. (Runtime errors: UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE). For 2 fields BETRG and POHRS which is of currency and dec type originally, i am getting values as '#' causing in dump. In non unicode program both fields have values as '0.00' If i put these values in debugging then after execution, program comes to selection screen! Kindly advise.
Data : komok(2) type c,

Hi,
It is sure some where in transferrules the mapping wasdone wrongly , like char --char of info object but in ur case some where data element is not same for field and info object.
check throughly transfer rules correctly field level and infoobject mapping and activate.
it is some where currency and unit fields the difference is there for data elements

Hi,
did you show the id-value in the user interface as a input-component, and did the input-component include a converter?
If yes, show the id as output-text and remove any existing converter-components.

Hi Ashley,
And yet, apparently you have a cmp-field with type <b>char</b> in one of your CMP entity beans. This is not supported.
