Type Declarations

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I have a issue with the Declarations of fields:

1st Condition:

Data: CALRATEGC type P decimals 5.

if calrategc gt '9999.99999'.

calrategc = '9999.99999'.

endif.

2ndCondition:

Data:f_cal_rate_gc like BAPIACCR09-AMT_DOCCUR.(DEC 23 Decimal 4)

shift exch_rate_gc left deleting leading space.

exrate_gc = ( p_line_item-dmbtr1 / p_line_item-wrbtr ).

ftact_gc = ( ffact_gc / tfact_gc ).

f_cal_rate_gc = exrate_gc * ftact_gc.

calrategc = f_cal_rate_gc. <b><--</b>

So, at this point as f_cal_rate_gc (Value 12,117,999,990.0000)is moved to calrategc i am receiving an Dump. How can i overcome this issue.

Please provide certain pointers to overcome this.

Hello Chandrasekhar,

I receive the message :

A calculation field is defined too small.

The reason for the exception is:

A value generated during processing is too large for the

field "CALRATEGC" of the program "ZJVUPLOAD".

shift exch_rate_gc left deleting leading space.

exrate_gc = ( p_line_item-dmbtr1 / p_line_item-wrbtr ).

ftact_gc = ( ffact_gc / tfact_gc ).

f_cal_rate_gc = exrate_gc * ftact_gc.

>calrategc = f_cal_rate_gc.

if calrategc lt '0'.

calrategc = calrategc * -1.

else.

calrategc = calrategc.

endif.

This is how my Code looks and the Arrow mark pointed above indicates the line the Dump occured.

Hi Sravan,

For TYPE P , maximim allowed length is only 16, and u rassigning more than that to the field calrategc , declare <b>calrategc</b> also as type BAPI<b>ACCR09-AMT_DOCCUR</b>

Hi Chandrasekhar,

Thanks for the posting.

Declaring 'calrategc' as like BAPIACCR09-AMT_DOCCUR would solve the issue but,

I have a rule that needs to be considered which comes right after the code that i have provided in my earlier posting:

if calrategc gt '9999.99999'. <-- 9999.99999 is Hardcoded

calrategc = '9999.99999'.

endif.

So, by declaring calrategc as like BAPIACCR09-AMT_DOCCUR will the above condition get validated.

Hi,

declare calrategc also as type BAPIACCR09-AMT_DOCCUR

Currently u declaed as TYPE p.

For TYPE P , maximim allowed length is only 16, and u reassigning more than that to the field calrategc.

Mr.Sravan,

Dump is caused because of data type/length mismatching.

In the declararion of fields, U defined a variable of type P decimals 5. A Packed data type can accomidate a max. lenght of 16, where as field f_cal_rate_gc has (DEC 23 Decimal 4). Because of length mismatch, it is causing short dump.

If helpful, reward points.
