KEFC error

[Former Member]

Hello,

Sender Structure is defined using ZCOPA database table

Sender and Receiver rules are defined

In ZCOPA Database table Value fields are data types of ‘DEC’

But when trying to upload the data in text format in KEFC, it’s showing Unicode error

I am unable to find out what should be the format for this file.

kind regards

Hi Pari,

  Unfortunately in UNICODE system fields with type I or F and even P in sender strucure are not supported. Only fields with type character are allowed. Please change your sender structure in such a way. There is no possibility in an unicode system to have in sender structure data type packed or floating numbers. Therefore, please change its definition to CHAR or NUMCHAR.

  Usually the sender structure is referencing some user-defined dictionary structure . Then this dictionary structure has to be changed in SE11: For the respective component of the structure you use the type CHAR or you select the data element of structure CHAR instead of P.

The sender structure depends on the dictionary structure. Please check out the contents of this structure since the sender structure contains these fields. There should be only C, N, D or T type
fields. Please check the transfer rules in the transaction KEFD, if there are still fields which are still in the format P (8) which is packed format.  This cannot be used for EDT in an unicode system.

Maybe the transfer rules have not been regenerated after the sender structure has been changed.  Everytime the sender structure undergoes a change, it is necessary that the corresponding transfer rules be created again.  But of course, just record the current receiver field <-> assignement, delete the current transfer rule and create it again. This should create the transfer rule correctly for the updated sender structure.
