Hello,
You cannot change the datatype at runtime.
Start with a CHAR item then do the corresponding cast (NUMBER or DATE)

Hi Rohit,
You can change the material type in MMAM trxn code if the material dosenot conatain any open purchase requisitions, open reservations & open purchase orders. Also material stock should be zero.
Remember the new material type should have same attributes same as old material type.
OLD Material New Material
1) Standard Price 1) Standard Price
2) Manufacture part 2) Manufacture part
profile actvated profile actvated
3) Quantity & Value 3) Quantity & Value
Updation in all areas Updation in all areas
4) should have same GL 4) Should have same GL acs
acs
It is not possible to change Industry sector once created.
If you want to delete the Material, you can flag it in MM06 trxn code.

How to change data type from Integer to Double?

In a data set, BIP treat Oracle number type column as Integer. How to change it to double?

Hi,
This could be possible with the tcode RSD2 in BW.
But before you do this you need to remove this KF from the cubes/dso in which they are used.Otherwise i don think you can do this.
Once the change is done you could add them back to the DataTargets and load the data as required.

How to change data type of content type column.

Hi all,
I am having one content type. I have 10 columns in it. There are two rich text columns in my content type. I have attached this content type to pages library. I want to change the data type of this rich text column to "Full
HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing".
Please assist me with this issue.
amol

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to change the data type for rich text column in content type.
The field type of Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing is "Invalid", you could refer to this article:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spfieldtype.aspx.
You also could test it by create a Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing column and get the its type with C# code below:
//change the URL to your SharePoint site
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://sp/sites/sharepoint2013"))
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
SPFieldType type = web.Fields["Column name"].Type;
I have tested it with the PowerShell, it cannot hange the rich text column to “Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing” column. If you want to edit the rich text column, you could not change the type of the column as the screenshot
below:
As a workaround, you could follow these steps to accomplish your requirement:
Create a “Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing” type column in the content type.
Enter your site columns by clicking gear icon -> Site Settings -> Site columns under Web Designer Galleries under section.
Find and delete the rich text column you want to change.
Find the column you have created in step 1, and change the column’s name to the name of the text column you have deleted in step 3.
But you will lose the data of the rich text column in pages library with this method.

How to Change Date-Type to Char-Type with Format?, When it.....

I'd like to Change format Data from Date-Type Column to char-type
especially, as 'YYYYMMDD' Format, But There are some Error Message.
I already know, to_char(sysdate, 'yyyymmdd') from dual,
But When it Applied my Table (has Date Type Column )....
That SQL was Error...
Table Description
===================
GUBUN     NOT NULL     NUMBER(7)
POLCD     NOT NULL     NUMBER(7)
TITLE          VARCHAR2(200)
VALUE          NUMBER(7)
SIDATE          VARCHAR2(20)
SQL
================================
SELECT TO_CHAR(SIDATE,'YYYYMMDD') as V_SIDATE , -- <== Error
TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYYMMDD') as V_TODAY -- <== Ok
FROM T_POLL
Error Msg
================================
ORA-01722: invalid number
.....I don't know Why... plz. help me, it's Urgent...-_-;
ICQ : 40751557
MSN : [email protected]
Finally, sorry for my poor English...

The reason for the error is you are applying a TO_CHAR function to a character datatype. SIDATE is a character. That field should be a date field. If for some reason, you need it to stay as a character field then you will need to change it to a date then change it back to a character.
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SIDATE,'put format here'),'YYYYMMDD')

How to use same Data Type and Length for two fields

How to use same data type and length for two fields when using 'FOR ALL ENTRIES IN' in a select statement? For instance the select queries are :
SELECT bukrs gjahr belnr lifnr budat bldat zlspr dmbtr waers shkzg
FROM bsik
INTO TABLE it_bsik
WHERE bukrs = p_bukrs
AND lifnr IN s_lifnr.
IF it_bsik IS NOT INITIAL.
SELECT belnr gjahr awkey awtyp
FROM bkpf
INTO TABLE it_bkpf
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN it_bsik
WHERE belnr = it_bsik-belnr
AND gjahr = it_bsik-gjahr.
IF it_bkpf IS NOT INITIAL.
SELECT belnr gjahr lifnr xblnr
FROM rbkp
INTO TABLE it_rbkp
FOR ALL ENTRIES IN it_bkpf
WHERE belnr = it_bkpf-awkey+0(10)
AND gjahr = it_bkpf-awkey+10(4).
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
Here it gives an error in the 3rd select query that 'When you use the addition "FOR ALL ENTRIES IN itab", the fields "GJAHR" and "IT_BKPF2-AWKEY+10(4)" must have the same type and the same length.'
Kindly clarify.

Hi Saurabh,
Please see the example code that I have developed for you. It will help you solve the problem.
REPORT ZTEST_3 .
tables : BKPF.
data : begin of it_bkpf occurs 1,
         belnr type RE_BELNR,
         awkey type awkey,

       into table it_bkpf
       where BUKRS = 'TELH'.
loop at it_bkpf.
it_bkpf1-belnr = it_bkpf-belnr.
it_bkpf1-awkey = it_bkpf-awkey+10(4).           "Here only append the required length.
it_bkpf1-awtyp = it_bkpf-awtyp.
it_bkpf1-gjahr = it_bkpf-gjahr.
append it_bkpf1.
clear it_bkpf1.
endloop.
select belnr
        gjahr
        lifnr
        xblnr
        from RBKP
        into table it_rbkp
        for all entries in it_bkpf1

This is just an example. Change the fields according to your requirement.

How to change data source name and context root during deployment

Hi,
Env:
WLS 10.1.3
JDev 11.1.1.6
Hudson
I need to deploy two instances of my ADF application on the same development enviroment. We are using Hudson to deploy. My question is how to change data source name and application context root before second deployment.
Kuba

I don't believe there is an inbuilt facility to do this.
Previously how I've done this is when checking files out using Hudson jovs, before the build I then use an Ant extension called XmlTask (http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/) to modify the required XML files.
Can I ask why you're doing this in the first place please? Multi-tenancy? 2 versions of the same app?
