populating info object from another info Object

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I have  added a new info Object in a DSO, I have to populate this newly added info object with an existing info object.

However, my issue is the existing info object is of length 45 and my new info object is of length is 26. Now my issue is I have to read bit of existing IO into the new one.

ex: existing info object contains the following

000000010000000000200011021511075816072414

my new IO should be populated with 4 values from 6th position and 2 values from position 19, 4 values from 23rd position.

My abap knowledge is very basic, can some one please suggest me how to achieve this in the end routine?.

Regards

Naveen

Hi Francis/PJ,

I tried writing the code as mentioned by you. However, my source field does not exist in the source DSO but it is derived in the target DSO by field routine. In this scenario can you suggest me how to acheive this?.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

Regards

Naveen

You can use this code in the Endroutine

LOOP AT result_package ASSIGNING < result_fields >.

        CONCATENATE < result_fields >-char45+6(4)

                                    < result_fields >-char45+19(2)

                                    < result_fields >-char45+23(4)

                             into < result_fields >-CHAR26.

    ENDLOOP.

Hi Naveen,

Glad to see another issue solved. Don't worry about points they come automatically when you mark your question as answered or mark any reply as helpful answer.

Try this

say your long value is in <source_field>-char45 and your target is RESULT.

* assuming <source_field>-char45 has value '000000010000000000200011021511075816072414',

This is the code for the transformation field update rule

CONCATENATE <source_field>-char45 +6(4)

                            <source_field>-char45 +19(2)

                            <source_field>-char45 +23(4)

                     into RESULT.

Hello Naveen,

You have to use Field Routine and in that you have to use the CP* ( Contains pattern) to achieve your requirement

you have to declare 3 local variables in the field routine which can store the values as per your requirement

IF SOURCE_FIELDS-(YOUR EXISTING FIELD NAME) CP '00000*'.

xxx = source_fields-Existing Field+6(4).

yyy = source fields-existing Field+19(2).

zzz = source fields-existing field+23(4).

then concatenate all 3 into another one then finally

[former_member241605]

you have to concatenate all 3 into one local variable and then

RESULT =  LOCAL VARIABLE.

ELSE.

CLEAR LOCAL VARIABLE.

hope it may answer you.

PJ
