The reverse is also not possible. We will then move on to discuss modeling aspects in OData version 2.0 and version 4.0, before digging deeper into the corresponding data handling in SAP Gateway Foundation. To regenerate an existing function module you must first manually delete the function module and then generate it afresh. Hello everyone, I want to share with you some information (hopefully useful) about exporting a table to a .csv file in ABAP. I noticed the lv_testata. The currency conversion is performed Due to rounding, the result can be different from a unit conversion performed using ABAP methods, such as a standard function module. Convert between internal and external data structures. Nevertheless, the sap:semantics attribute will be there it is purely derived from the data type of the field in the ABAP structure and not regarded as conversion-related. I cannot provide one ad hoc. The output that we get is in the required format. SD_CONTRACT_READ_CONDITIONS- "ITAB1" cannot be converted to the row type of "LT_FILE". As a prerequisite for the example, the currencies and their number of decimal places must be available in the corresponding database tables. Thanks, Nils. To repeat: the result is a string with the formatted currency amount. DECIMAL_SHIFT( p1 => a1, p2 => a2, ). And thanks for your contribution. But you can easily translate the statements and examples to quantities, for example. The automated service metadata determination described in the previous section looks precisely for such a configuration. As you will see in the links I have been challenged to try and fight this by writing a series of blogs myself about ABAP2XLSX, as clearly even after ten years no-one has heard of it. Nevertheless, other (locale-dependent) formatting features would still be implemented in the UI client, for example, a user-specific decimal separator setting to choose between 100.00 EUR and 100,00 USD. Default: Content of the client column of the current row, If "X" (default value), the intermediate result of the conversion is rounded to the end result using commercial rounding; else it is truncated. To use the CONVERT_CURRENCY function, the currency conversion tables TCURV, TCURX, TCURN, TCURR, and TCURF must be available in the SAP HANA database. Using the same input, the output is similar as the above example. Here's an example code to get started: import pyrfc import pandas as pd # SAP connection parameters params = { 'user': 'username', 'passwd': 'password', 'ashost': 'hostname', 'sysnr': 'system_number', 'client': 'client_number . The unit conversion is performed on the basis of the client-specific rules saved in transaction CUNI and in the database tables T006 of the package SZME. CLEAR: lv_length. For more information, choose F1 help for columns Status and Conv. It is not yet possible to use this transaction to regenerate an existing function module. [1] P LENGTH 8 can store 2 * 8 1 (the sign) = 15 digits. CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY translates a foreign currency amount into the desired local currency. I will create a blog on this one for future colleagues. In this blog post, we are going to take a deeper look at a very special conversion-related topic: the formatting of currency amounts. For example, $filter=TotalNetAmount gt 123 would still appear as. See you in the next post. This bundle contains Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite and Mission USB Power Cable. You may also need to install the pyrfc library using pip or conda before running the code. The SAP Gateway Foundation framework offers a method to retrieve filter information as select options in GET_ENTITYSET methods of the data provider class. To do this, select Form to edit. This site requires JavaScript to run correctly. If the function module is being used to convert currency amounts, the fixed point arithmetic for the selected function group must be switched on. is a literal that is cast to the required type. As a prerequisite for the example, the currencies and conversion rules must be available in the corresponding database tables. SAP Business ByDesign, for example, stores currency amounts as decimal floating points (mainly dictionary type DF34_DEC). Call transaction SE37 with function module CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY. Andre Fischer : do you know someone who could have a quick look? The decimal places of the source value are moved as specified by the decimal places of the source currency (see below). for the column AMOUNT of the database table DEMO_PRICES in accordance with The following is an excerpt of the program DEMO_ASQL_CURRENCY_CONVERSION. We then define the selection parameters such as the date range for sales data. The result has the data type SELECT SINGLE dcpfm FROM usr01 INTO lv_dcpfm WHERE bname EQ syuname. But with the OData version 4.0 stack the complex annotations are created automatically. We then define the selection parameters such as the date range for sales data. With the ABAP RESTful Programming model and OData version 4.0 you just need to specify appropriate CDS annotations and the formatting works out of the box. These are the CHANGING parameters of this function module. And you would then simply through an error message as the SAP Gateway framework does it using the new model feature which is by the way called USE_STRICT_FUNCTION_PARAM_CHK and not USE_STRICT_FUNCTION_PARAMETER_CHECK. value1;part2, value2 should be generated as "value1;part2";value2 (and not value1;part2;value2). The OData standard does not provide a specific primitive type for properties that represent currency amounts. The result has the data type a prerequisite for the example, the units and their conversion rules must be available in the corresponding database tables. The Function Module AIA_TOOL_CURRENCY_SAP_TO_EXTER (Convert currency amount and code from SAP into external format) These exceptions are described in. The result has the data type CURR with the same technical attributes as the actual parameter passed to amount. Optional (if the current data source is client-specific). The table contains the following columns: Indicates if the conversion is possible or if data is missing. Later versions of SAP Gateway Foundation allow for creation of OData services based on CDS (Core Data Services) through mapped data sources (MDS), referenced data source (RDS), or auto exposure. Ask Alexa to control Zigbee-compatible devices. The table below shows the actual parameters p1, p2, and their meaning. Formatting? Displays the fields of the internal structure to which/from which mapping is to be carried out. Lets start by shedding some light on those questions. I think it is a good idea to post those topics as 'Ask a Question' in the 'Answers' section of the community. The Function Module AIA_TOOL_CURRENCY_SAP_TO_EXTER (Convert currency amount and code from SAP into external format) is a standard Function Module in SAP ERP and is . Investigating the reason I saw that in the versions of SAP I use there is a comment according to which the standard FM does not manage the possibility of inserting a header line in the .csv file. We also rename and convert the date and time columns to pandas datetime format. length check on and off? At this point we can hang the converted file with the FM SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT to lt_file. If we apply structure binding. lv_amount_2 = lv_amount_1. This characteristic can be set for function import parameters in the model provider class. Add a Comment Alert Moderator Vote up 1 Vote down Former Member Dec 05, 2006 at 07:14 AM Hi, Please use the following FM. Finally, we close the SAP connection using, Note that the actual selection parameters and function module may vary depending on your SAP system configuration and data requirements. Because the primary key field WAERS in currency code table TCURC is the SAP-specific coded representation of currencies. To know more details on handling the currency conversions, its roles and limitations, please check the ABAP Keyword Documentation. within the package AIP. @AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: 'DEMO_CDS_UNTCNV', @AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: 'DEMO_CDS_CURRCO', @AbapCatalog.sqlViewName: 'DEMO_CDS_DCSHFT', Source currency from column MSEHI of database table, Target unit from column MSEHI of database table, Client whose rules are used to perform the unit conversion. Hang on, isnt that a pure user interface topic? CURRENCY_CONVERSION( p1 => a1, p2 => a2, ). https://blogs.sap.com/2020/11/03/how-to-check-the-maximum-length-of-a-function-import-parameter-in-segw-based-odata-services. ***Fetch records from USR01 CLEAR: lv_dcpfm. Do you know if and how that can be changed to show 2 decimals only? Currently, there are only two exceptions: CLF and UYW with a minor unit of 4. Please note some of the newer syntax such as the @DATA is not available until a later 4.70 service pack (SP8). Existence of an installed Excel program on the PC or app server is not required. As a prerequisite for the example, the currencies and conversion rules must be available in the corresponding DDIC database tables. I forgot to replace, As for using the standard FM, I wrote the following code before the. These two field names represent two fields in structure VBAK. You can use a max length which is even bigger, say 100, but you would nevertheless check in your application code that the payload does not exceed 18 characters. Do you have any suggestion for this case? I described it in some more detail in the following blog post. The source unit Two choices for easy smart lighting - Start setting the mood with Hue Smart bulbs and your Echo device, supporting up to 5 Hue Bluetooth & Zigbee smart bulbs. Seems like that with Function Import it doesnt work. As a comparison, the same conversion At this point in time, the formatting is done using function module CURRENCY_AMOUNT_SAP_TO_IDOC. However, examining the code I found this comment within the FM SAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT (called within the FM SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT): *-**Local Interface:* IMPORTING* REFERENCE(LV_WAERS) TYPE WAERS* REFERENCE(LV_AMOUNT) TYPE CHAR30* EXPORTING* REFERENCE(LV_EXTERNAL) TYPE CHAR30*-***Variable DATA: lv_dcpfm TYPE xudcpfm, lv_amount_1 TYPE char23, lv_amount_2 TYPE bapicurrbapicurr, lv_internal TYPE bsegwrbtr, lv_length TYPE i. To generate the function modules, the relevant internal and external data formats must have been created in the ABAP Dictionary. See here to view full function module documentation and code listing, simply by entering the name SD_CONVERT_CURRENCY_FORMAT into the relevant SAP transaction such as SE37 or SE80. To repeat: the result is a string with the formatted currency amount. The determination of the reference currency property works with structure binding only because reference fields information is tied to ABAP structures.
