PRODU Conversion Routine

Hi Experts,
We are loading data from APO to BW. However, the Material length in APO is 40 with PRODU conversion routine. In BW, the Material length is 18 with ALPHA conversion routine.
During data loading, if the value is '000000000000000000000000000000000001' in APO, it will display as '0000000000000000' in BW. Please advise on how to correct this. Thank you.

HI
first check in SPRO.. settings configures. 4.3.Specify Output Format of Product Number
IMG > Advanced Planning & Optimization>Master Data>Product> Specify Output Format of Product Number.
For example:
Product Number with Leading Zeros: 000000001234 (zeros up to defined length of product number)
Product Number without Leading Zeros: 1234 (leading zeros removed from product number)
Following the menu path or transaction code above:
u2022 Uncheck the u201Cleading zerosu201D box and save the setting.

PRODU Conversion Routines in APO ABAP

Hi Folks,
I am new to APO..
I wanted to change PRODU conversion routines for Product , Could you please let me know is there any user-exits or Badis avaialble..
I wanted to change both Input, output routines..
my req is :
Material number is .1234
when ever we create any material starting with (.) it should change to(0) 01234..
and internal format also should be only 01234 not all other leading zeros( as 40 is length).. and display format is as 01234
Thanks,
Smriti..

Hi Smriti,
Can you use the Replace command for the above issue.
Command
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '.' IN matnr WITH `0`.

WBS element conversion routines

Hey guys,
I recently added PS_PSP_PNR to 2LIS_11_VAHDR in order to extract the WBS element from the sales document header. So far so good and everything works fine. In the extractor checker I get the data as expected e.g. 'S-00017.02.09'.
The problem occurs as soon as the data is transferred to BW. In the transfer structure I see that PS_PSP_PNR har conversion routine ABPSP that converts the WBS from external format CHAR(24) to internal NUMC(8). And this is what is causing me the trouble! In the PSA the WBS from above is converted to '00029788'.
I tried several different approaches. If the field is mapped directly to 0WBS_ELEMT the value '00029788' is obviously also written to the DSO and further up the data flow.
I tried coding an ABAP routine in the transfer rules which does not seem to work:
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ABPSP_OUTPUT'
exporting
input = TRAN_STRUCTURE-ps_psp_pnr
importing
output = RESULT.
RETURNCODE = 0.
ABORT = 0.
Since the routine above did not help me at all I tested the FM in SE37 and it does not return any values for '00029788'.
Any clues on this? How to proceed?
BR
Stefan.

Well... Didn't want to wait any further for an answer, so I appended PS_POSID to the extract structure and filled this field in ZXRSAU01. In the exit I used 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ABPSP_OUTPUT' to convert to the correct format.

What is use of Conversion Routine in Abap dictionary

Hi,
Can any body please tell me the proper use of <b>Conversion Routine in Abap dictionary.</b>
Please give me a practical example where it has been used.
Thanks
prabhudutta

hi,
here is help for conversion routine
Conversion takes place when converting the contents of a screen field from display format to SAP-internal format and vice versa and when outputting with the ABAP statement WRITE, depending on the data type of the field.
If standard conversion is not suitable, it can be overridden by specifying a conversion routine in the underlying domain.
A conversion routine is identified by its five-place name and is stored as a group of two function modules. The function modules have a fixed naming convention. The following function modules are assigned to conversion routine xxxxx:
CONVERSION_EXIT_xxxxx_INPUT
CONVERSION_EXIT_xxxxx_OUTPUT
The INPUT module performs the conversion from display format to internal format. The OUTPUT module performs the conversion from internal format to display format.
If a screen field refers to a domain with a conversion routine, this conversion routine is executed automatically each time an entry is made in this screen field or when values are displayed with this screen field.

Raghavendra

How to write conversion routine for key figure?

Our customer has this requirment:
we need to know the last time of some TV program in BEx report, If a TV program last 500 seconds, we need show the key figure like this: 00:08:20, If a TV program last 100000 seconds, we need show the key figure like 27:46:40 (27 hours and 46 minitues and 27 seconds), If we define a key figure as time, BW system will report a error that say it is not acceptable time. If we want to define a integer, but we need display it like hhmmss format. We know we can write conversion routine for char. but I don't how to write conversion routine for key figure.   Please give me any hint if any other solutions?
Edited by: SY DONG on Dec 2, 2010 3:36 AM

If you want to do in Transformation Layer :
You can use routine ...break up the seconds into minute hour and seconds
you will have to handle few cases in this:
let say your variable lv_seconds holds the number of seconds you want to convert to hour min and seconds
DATA: lv_seconds type i,
           lv_hrs type i,
          lv_sec type i,
          lv_min type i.
lv_hrs = lv_seconds / 3600
if lv_hrs >= 1.
lv_min = (lv_hrs - trunc(lv_hrs))*60
here again handle seconds if min >60.
else.
lv_hrs = '00'.
lv_min = lv_hrs*60
It is just hint ..how you can manipulate the seconds to get it...you will have to think about the complete algorithm

Conversion routine for time key figure

Hi,
i have a filed in datasource which has length 5 ( of numeric char ).it may be coz time can be represented as "hh:mm" which has of course of length 5.
this particular field is mapped to a key figure of type time ( which is only 4 numc ).
because of this mismatches transfer rules are not getting activated.
what i need to do now? is it neccessary to write a conversion routine again?if yes, can any body write here the code required for it?
thanks,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Assuming time comes in 'HH:MM' , colon placed explicitly , Code should look like ...
bwtime(2) = r3time+1(2) .
bwtime2(2) = r3time3(2).
Where BW_Time stands for info object.
R3time stands for transfer structure field.
Normally time field is of type numc lenght 6 ( HHMMSS) and inthat case should not be any issue when used in BW system.
Hope that helps.

How to use conversion routine?

hi,
in my z-table i have a field called matnr for the material number say.
its domain defines it as 18 char.
say i have created an entry say 200.
so it will be saved may be as 000000000000000200.
i want it should be displayed with as 200.
and if i search for say 200.
so it should not look for the proceeding zero's.
it should not give me an error that record doesn't exists.
please tell me how to use exaclty conversion routine.
thanks

hi all,
the problem has been solved.
CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_OUTPUT   this FM module can only be used where the z-table has matnr of the type MATNR the standard matnr of the table mara.
so in my program it was not working.
my data element was not matnr.
i had used a popup for position finder.
so it could not read the material number which had zeros as prefixes.
thanks for all the help

How to remove conversion routine "ABPSN"

Dear gurus,
In my transfer rules, under the tab "DataSource/Trans. Structure", I have a field PSPID whose "Conversion Routine" has the value "ABPSN". This conversion routine converts the external format to the SAP format which, however, is not what I want. I want to remain the original format so I need to remove this "ABPSN" conversion routine. When I double clicked it, it linked to the InfoObject 0PROJECT maintanace screen. On that screen, I removed the conversion routine "PROJ" for 0PROJECT, but still ABPSN remains and the data loaded into the InfoCube have been converted.
So how can I remove this ABPSN convertion routine?
Thanks in advance.
Jin Ming

Hi Jin Ming,
Conversion Exit ABSPN is related to WBS element and not project at R/3 side.
But at BW side this routine internally calls Project routine .
The Process is,
1. Delete all transactional data , from related ODS & Cube wherever 0PRoject is used .
2. Delete master data from 0Project.
3. Change object 0Project remove the conversion using Tcode RSD1.
4. Load master data for 0Project.
5. Load transaction data.
Hope that helps.

How to "Custom conversion routine" in BW

Hi team,
The R3 table level field has converion routine which stores the value as "A" .
When you display this in application (or) using ALV, it shows as "AB". There are custom function modules behind this conversion routine.
In BW, when we extract until PSA, we are getting "A".
I see the option at Info object level to write" conversion routine" but how and where to start this conversion routine in BW.
In BW, we want to show "AB"
Thanks
Angelo

Hi,
this problem is solved in transformation PSA to InfoObject using formula or routine.

Conversion Routine problem

Hi,
In one of the info object there is a conversion routine. So, when the query is executed in BeX Query Analyzer the result is comming correct i.e. if in the database the value of info object is 0001234 then at display it is coming as 1234.
However, in case if its value is "STEP" in database , at output "Not Assigned" is comming. Dont know what is happening. If anybody already encouter this problem please help.

Hi,
It is not in the hierarchy.
I am using alpha routine so as to remove the leading zeros at the time of display.
There are two info objects, both are same, the only difference between them is one info object is having alpha routine and another one is without it.
The one info object without any routine is displaying values correctly but the another one with aplha routine is displaying 00123 as 123 but also displaying STEP as Not Assigned.

What is meant by matn1 conversion routine in info object

hi,
Can i know the exact meaning and usage of matn1 (type of conversion routine) in the infoobject level.
thanks in advance

Hi Sankar,
Conversion takes place when converting the contents of a screen field from display format to SAP-internal format and vice versa and when outputting with the ABAP statement WRITE, depending on the data type of the field.
Check the info here:
