Change of Data type in Fuction Module

Posted on Nov 18, 2005 at 11:10 AM 16 Views

Hi,

I have a Function Module XYZ and it contains field Custline of datatype char30.

Now I want to change it to Char65 i.e Character type with 65 length. I get a Error message stating that Type Char65 does not exist whereas when i check in se11. I can see that data type.

Thanks in Adv

    CHAR65 is a domain not a data element. TEXT_65 (as previously suggested) and TEXT65 are data elements with a domain CHAR65. There are others, but you can use one of these.

    Hi Sanjay,

    CHAR65 does not exist as a data type. Try CHAR69 or CHAR70. If your requirement is for 65 characters then you either have to create a new data type or declare a TYPE C variable of 65 length.

    HI all I found out that there is an include program in which all the Data type for that Function module is present, However it states that

    • THIS FILE IS GENERATED BY THE FUNCTION LIBRARY**

  • NEVER CHANGE IT MANUALLY, PLEASE!**

    • **********************************************************

    DATA ORG_XY TYPE CHAR30.

    Then how to go about Changing it, Its a Remote Function Call.

    Is it your custom RFC or SAP's? 

    *****************************************************************
*   THIS FILE IS GENERATED BY THE FUNCTION LIBRARY.             *
*   NEVER CHANGE IT MANUALLY, PLEASE!                           *
*****************************************************************

    This text you will see in the include that contains all the function module includes. How did this data definition end up there? Usually all the data definitions are either in the interface of the function module or in the TOP include.

    Can you please give us more details?
