Concatenation with space

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Need ur kind help in concatenating as below.

L_MATERIAL(18) = LQAMCANO240033. "Material no length varies upto 18 char

L_BATCH = T91.

Output should be LQAMCANO240033&&&&T91

& denotes space

Pls note that there should be space in case the material no is smaller.

Regards,

U can use WRITE statement with offset to get the requiremd result.

WRITE l_material to l_text+0(18).

write l_batch to l_text+18(3).

L_text will have the required result.

Hi Karthik,

Try the following statements.

l_out = l_material.

l_out+18(3) = l_batch.
