Replacing Special Chars with Space in BI 7.0 Transformation

Posted on Dec 04, 2007 at 06:22 PM 10 Views

Hi Experts:

I am getting data from External Source (DBConnect MSSQL) where the DataSource field name is WORK and in BI the filed is mapped to InfoObject Z_WORK which is 40 in Length. These fields has Specials charas like ' # - etc. I want to replace the Speicals chars with Space = ' '

In Transformation for InfoObject Z_WORK, I wrote this Routine but getting error:

<b>E:The data object "SOURCE_FIELDS" does not have a component called

"/BIC/Z_WORK".</b>

*******************************************************

DATA: l_d_offset LIKE sy-index.
CONSTANTS: c_allowed(40) type c
 value 'ABCDEFGHJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890_'.
 RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/Z_WORK.

*Only Capitals are permited, hence convert to Capitals.

TRANSLATE RESULT TO UPPER CASE.
DO 60 TIMES.
l_d_offset = sy-index - 1.
  IF RESULT+l_d_offset(1) CO c_allowed.

*  Character allowed, don't do anything
  ELSE.
* Character not allowed, replace with blank space
RESULT+l_d_offset(1) = ' '.
  ENDIF.
 ENDDO

    Double click on SOURCE_FIELDS and find the fieldname for Z_WORK ..it shd be different from /BIC/Z_WORK. have the correct fieldname in code.

    Sonali,

    It would be

    <b>SOURCE_FIELDS-Z_WORK</b> instead of SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/Z_WORK

    simple 😊
