Hot to conver text to number....i.e char to key figure

If so kindly give me the ABAP code....

Hello venu,
Ur problem can be solved using Virtual Char. And Virtual Key Fig.
U need 1 Virtual Key Fig. and Chara. each.
U can move last par "WAGONS" inot cha. and numeric part to Key Fig.
After which u can sum up key part at query level.
Any futher details required let me.

Number of days required in Key Figures

how to take "number of days" from date characterisstic to key figure for giving formula's on that?

Hi,
you can define date as a Characterstic/Key Figure. It all depends on how you would like to use it in a query.
For example: By having dates defined as Key Fig. you can restrict them and use them as variable for the other Key Fig. While defining them as characteristics you have the advantage of query analysis with respect to dates.
Hope this helps,

How to change Text to Number in Excel 2013

Hi,
I imported and parsed a large CSV file (75000 rows) with 4 columns as numbers. They arrive in Excel as text with a "." as decimal separator. In Excel options, I set the decimal separator to "." but data remains as text. I could edit and
enter each cell to convert it as number but I have 4 x 75000 cells...
Any idea ?

Interactive report sort text as number

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible in an Apex interactive report to sort text as number?
For example, a series of text rows:
4
10
2
would sort as:
10
2
4
if it were text. What I would like to see is:
2
4
10
How could this be done?
Thanks.

If your column contains numbers only, you could use TO_NUMBER (column_name) column_name to convert it to a numeric value and it will sort it properly.

Hi,
One thing's to be clarified :
If you need sometimes number & sometimes text in a particular target field, then it has to be a char field and you cant do any mathematical operation on that later.

Left justify text in number field

Hi,
I would be grateful if someone could tell me how to display the text (returned from a loop) in a number field
so that it is left justified - also where would it have to be set?
The 'justification' setting when set to 'Left' doesn't achieve this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Tom

First i dont think so in Number field u can set TEXT
Create a field with CHAR type and u can put alpha numeric text in it
set the justification Property of Text item to Start or Left

My iphone 5 will not text one number

Have seen previous threads on this issue but none have resolved this matter for me.
There is one number that I cannot text, the other p contact a Samsung GT-S3350(Tesco) mine is on Vodafone. I can receive texts and calls and can call the number, but texts fail to send and are all marked as Not Delivered.
I have turned both phones on and off, turned on/off iMessage, 3G, data roaming and have reset network settings. I have also deleted the contact from my phone and the other phone.
My wife has an iphone 5 and doesnt have any problems texting the number.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

I did solve the problem. I assumed because the message bubble was green that my friend had another type of phone. I was completely wrong! After I just made sure iMessage was on and restarted my phone it works just fine! So I guess iMessage was the problem ☺️

I cannot text one number in my phone that I have in the past...

Since last week I cannot text one number in my phone, yet if I move my SIM into another phone it sends... any ideas? have tried wiping the SIM, re-starting the phone...

Nevermind! I found out I can get a docking station that you can hook up from there to charge it! YEAH!

Cannot text one number

I can not text one number and it is driving me crazy!! I recieved a message that says "you can only send messages to fixed dialing numbers". I do not know what that means. I can send texts to Verizon, and T-Mobile phones. I can send and recieve calls from the number but I can not text.
This is recent that this has happened. I was able to send and recieve texts from this one numbers, but it seems as of OCtober, I can not.
Is anyone else having this issue?? It is truely driving me crazy!!

Try checking Menu / Settings / Call Settings / FDN and make sure fix dialing option isnt enabled, if this is on this can restrict in and out going items..
Another thing to check with Verizon and make sure no restrictions is setup on your accounts or you can check and make sure you havent added that number to the block list on the MyVerizon area of your account.

Display Text as a Key Figure

Hi peeps,
I would like to display a text half way along my bex report
i.e. would like to display 4 chars ,then 5 kfs then some text and then some more kfs.
i am currently doing this using a Formula Variable to Replace a KF value with a char, and this works to an extent.
The char value is diplayed, but the formula variable only allows me to set the output to Number so if the char contains anything other than a number it fails to display. It also contains the number formating in bex.
any ideas.
e.g.
if a char contains week no, 200450, when using a formula var to display this as a KF, I get 200,450 formatting in Bex.
If the char contains 10/20/30 I get a display error in bex as it will not alow the '/' to be displayed
any ideas.

You could create your query as a tabular query. To do this just click on the 'Tabular Display' Button (left beside the technical Name button. There you can arrange the columns as you like and you are not restricted to characteristics/key figures order.

How to influence the text display of key figures in the interarctive DP

Hello all,
Does anyone know if there is a possibility (BADI, etc.) to change the text display of key figures (not characteristics!) in a planning book/data view?
I know that you can define a free text in the data view but still, this is only one fixed text and it cannot be changed.
Reason for the request: We would like to use the same key figure (and hence, indicate 2 different texts) for two different purposes (in different selections) without having to create a new data view.
Kind regards,
Klemens

if you dont want a new data view and might even go to the extent of creating a user exit for this ... here is an idea
- just create auxillary KF ( or use spare Temp KF depending on what you want to do with the data in the view) for each of these KF with the text
lets say you have KF1 and KF2 - create KF1A and KF2A
Make sure KF1A = KF1 and KF2a = KF2
Now depending on user you can display KF 1 and KF2 or KF1a and KF2a depending on the user by using macros USER() and ROW_VISIBLE(0)

Experience with creation of a large number of key figures

Hi:
I have a need to create a large number of Key Figures (at least about 50 of them) for DP use. Do you have any experience with automating this task if so, can you share your experience? Thanks.
Satish

Hi,
So far we have not come across a need to automate KF creation. And 50 KF is not a huge number, it would take may be a couple of hours to create them. Also, since it is a one time activity, developing an automation script for the same does not sound useful. You might want to consider creating them manually so that you can ensure all settings are proper.
Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards
