Hi all,

We will upload data from ascii files to BW system.

In the txt files we have amount field .Amount field length is 17 in the BW system.To upload data in the ascii format we have to use fixed lenght data in the txt files.But in the txt file amount field is not fixed,stable ,also containd decimal places, for example 4500,58.

How can we fix its size to 17.

We know there is a function CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT but we can not be able to use it for amount key figure.

Does anyone solve such a problem like this?

Thanks for your help.
