negative value into positive value

[Former Member]

hi,

may i know how to make the negative value to posiitive value?

when negative value, then in abap, i have to convert the value to positive value and assign the posting key as 50.

when positive value, then in abap, no conversion needed and assign posting key as 40.

thanks

Hi Eliana,

This is pretty basic question could be done with a simple if condition.

This is one simple or simplest way

parameters : p_number type i.
data : p_newno(8) type n.

if p_number le 0.
    write:/ 'Before Conversion', p_number.
    write:/ 'After Conversion'.
    write p_number to p_newno no-sign.
    write:/ 'New number', p_newno.
endif.

hope this would help you.

Thanks & Regards,
