If you do not want to use structure binding, you need to explicitly specify the relationship in the model provider class. The Euro (EUR) has two decimal places to refer to cents. You would expect that such a framework would support currency amounts. A currency would be considered with the following filter expression: $filter=TotalNetAmount gt 123 and TransactionCurrency eq JPY. These two field names represent two fields in structure VBAK. We also specify the SAP function module. Call transaction SE37 with function module CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY. It just checks whether the string contains a valid value and inserts the formatted result into the XML/JSON http response. However, I coudn't add the converted file itab1 to lt_file. In this blog post, we are going to take a deeper look at a very special conversion-related topic: the formatting of currency amounts. Next, we establish the SAP connection using pyrfc.Connection and call the function module with the selection parameters to extract the sales data. using different rounding rules from ABAP. In ABAP-based SAP software, currency information is stored in the TCUR* tables and it makes sense to handle the described formatting in the backend. Different processes need to observe different update frequencies. Below is the pattern details for this FM showing its interface including any import and export parameters, exceptions etc as well as any documentation contributions (Comments) specific to the object. I think it is a good idea to post those topics as 'Ask a Question' in the 'Answers' section of the community. https://blogs.sap.com/2020/11/03/how-to-check-the-maximum-length-of-a-function-import-parameter-in-segw-based-odata-services. See you in the next post. We then define the selection parameters such as the date range for sales data. 3. To know more details on handling the currency conversions, its roles and limitations, please check the ABAP Keyword Documentation. is also performed using the function module UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE. DESCRIBE FIELD lv_amount_1 LENGTH lv_length IN CHARACTER MODE. CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY' EXPORTING CLIENT = SY-MANDT DATE = sy-datum FOREIGN_AMOUNT = lv_foramt FOREIGN_CURRENCY = lv_forcurr LOCAL_CURRENCY = lv_loccurr RATE = 0 TYPE_OF_RATE = 'M' READ_TCURR = 'X' IMPORTING * EXCHANGE_RATE = * FOREIGN_FACTOR = LOCAL_AMOUNT = lv_locamt * LOCAL_FACTOR = * EXCHANGE_RATEX = * FIXED_RATE = * After the conversion, the result is divided by 10 to the power of the number of decimal places of the target currency. To connect to SAP and get sales data using Python, we can use the pyrfc library which allows Python to interact with SAP systems through Remote Function Calls (RFCs). Thanks. The value of that attribute denotes the name of the currency (code) property that must be part of the same entity type. I was just challenging this since we actually delegate this control/check to the GW Framework for typical EntitySets. "ITAB1" cannot be converted to the row type of "LT_FILE". The result has the data type Finally, we close the SAP connection using conn.close(). Hang on, isnt that a pure user interface topic? These include the following: Conversion of currency amounts into the required external or internal format, Conversion of internal and external keys, for use for example by WBS elements (work breakdown structure). TRANSLATE lv_amount_1 USING lc_con. Please help keep this info upto date and use the comments section below to add useful hints, tips and information specific to this SAP function. For OData version 2.0, SAP services use a specific property attribute sap:unit at the amount property. Client whose rules are used to perform the currency conversion. Data Formats and Structures. 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. Displays the fields of the internal structure to which/from which mapping is to be carried out. *" The Curr field, which is the required format PARAMETER :w_tgt type BAPICURR-BAPICURR. As a comparison, the same conversion is also performed using the function module CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY. ***Constants CONSTANTS: lc_x TYPE xudcpfm VALUE X, lc_y TYPE xudcpfm VALUE Y, lc_dot TYPE c VALUE ., lc_com TYPE c VALUE ,, lc_con TYPE char2 VALUE ,.. I can tell you that I noticed an error: I wrote the code in Italian and then translated it. Thanks for reading Analytics musings by Karteek! I have an issue with Function Import parameters length. Do you know if and how that can be changed to show 2 decimals only? For all currencies according to ISO 4712, the field WAERS contains the alphabetic ISO code, that is, the content of WAERS is equal to the content of ISOCD. But those amounts are decimal values. As a prerequisite for the example, the currencies and their number of decimal places must be available in the corresponding database tables. Answer is to use the BAPI function designed for that purpose: Data: Result type bapicurr-bapicurr CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_CURRENCY_CONV_TO_EXTERNAL' EXPORTING currency = 'JPY amount_internal = '10' IMPORTING amount_external = Result. CONVERT_AMOUNT_TO_CURRENCY is a standard SAP function module available within R/3 SAP systems depending on your version and release level. This function module does not define any Exceptions. REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF lc_com IN lv_amount_1 WITH space. Did I mix it up with currency conversion? With 3 decimal places, most currencies can be covered. Cannot answer off the top of my head but I am looking for an expert. Is it just a parameter of /iwbep/if_mgw_appl_srv_runtime~execute_action? must be passed as a parameter. Exchange rate date for column GDATU of the DDIC database table TCURR. In ABAP, currency amounts are typically stored in the so-called BCD format based on dictionary data type CURR. To use the CONVERT_CURRENCY function, the currency conversion tables TCURV, TCURX, TCURN, TCURR, and TCURF must be available in the SAP HANA database. At this point in time, the formatting is done using function module CURRENCY_AMOUNT_SAP_TO_IDOC. With the annotation term SAP__measures.ISOCurrency, an amount property (annotation target) gets a path assigned that points to the currency property. No additional Philips Hue hub required. statement. At this point in time, the formatting is done using function module CURRENCY_AMOUNT_SAP_TO_IDOC. Since I last published a blog post on this topic, SAP Gateway Foundation has continued to evolve. actual parameter passed to amount. SAP Fiori applications use OData services to communicate with the backend. Convert between internal and external data structures. The automated service metadata determination described in the previous section looks precisely for such a configuration. library which allows Python to interact with SAP systems through Remote Function Calls (RFCs). The table below shows the actual parameters p1, p2, and their meaning. Conversion functions for converting between units and between currencies in a The target currency The table below shows the parameters p1, p2, and their meaning. 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. In addition to the source text for the function module you can have a blank FORM routine added for your own program code if you have to make manual modifications. 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. Next, we establish the SAP connection using, and call the function module with the selection parameters to extract the sales data. This will then be available for you and other users to easily find by simply searching on the object name SD_CONVERT_CURRENCY_FORMAT or its description. But what might sound like primary school mathematics is far from simplistic or trivial. The FORM routine contains the same parameters as the generated function module. Contains the field names of the external BAPI structure. Seems like that with Function Import it doesnt work. As We convert the sales data into a pandas dataframe and filter out irrelevant columns such as material and plant. The intermediate result of the conversion is rounded to the end result using commercial rounding; otherwise, it is truncated. Pay attention that neither FM SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT nor your code (which simply adds the field separator, ";" in your case, after each field) are a complete/correct implementation of CSV file (according to the RFC) because they don't handle more complex like escape character or quotes. In addition to the source text for the function module you can have a blank . If VBAK-WAERK contains EUR, the JSON response is shown as: If VBAK-WAERK contains JPY, the JSON response is: Please observe that the 2 decimal places in the backend are not interpreted as such. This bundle includes Echo Dot (3rd Gen) Charcoal and Philips Hue White A19 Medium Lumen Smart Bulb, 1100 Lumens. Currency conversions are now possible in ABAP SQL as well as ABAP CDS. As a prerequisite for the example, the currencies and conversion rules must be available in the corresponding DDIC database tables. Ask Alexa to control Zigbee-compatible devices. In the appropriate input fields, enter the names of the external BAPI structure and the internal working structure you are making the conversion between. The target currency is passed here. In the past, SAPGUI as a user interface technology had similar formatting requirements. DECIMAL_SHIFT( p1 => a1, p2 => a2, ). "https://github.com/abap2xlsx/abap2xlsx" has been around for quite awhile and has more than passed the acid test. Ex 5000000 should show up as 50,00,000. IF lv_internal IS NOT INITIAL. Use method SET_UNIT_PROPERTY at the property that represents the currency amount. It does, and it has also been decided to include some of the formatting features in that layer. UNIT_CONVERSION( p1 => a1, p2 => a2, ) Lets start by shedding some light on those questions. on the basis of the client-specific rules saved in the database tables TCUR of package SFIB. CURRENCY_CONVERSION( p1 => a1, p2 => a2, ). Not Released Using the same input, the output is similar as the above example. Hello everyone, I want to share with you some information (hopefully useful) about exporting a table to a .csv file in ABAP. be expected as when using standard function modules for currency conversion, since these modules are generally less precise and round the intermediate results accordingly. (You can also define your own headings in a so-called "field catalog".) No matter how the conversion is made, the same results cannot be expected as when using standard function modules for currency conversion, since these modules are generally less precise and round the intermediate results accordingly. You may receive the converted information for a specific property in the table of select options in the following ways: Internally, this method uses a two-step approach. The formatting is executed at runtime when the SAP Gateway Foundation framework transfers the data between the data container used in the data provider class and the framework-internal data container. As a comparison, the same conversion is also performed using the function module CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY. 2. is a standard Function Module in SAP ERP and Ext. While debugging, I noticed that many people dont use the standard SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT Function Module to export tables to a .csv file. SD_CONTRACT_READ_CONDITIONS- These rules can be edited using transaction OB08. 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. But a primitive property for an amount does not make sense without reference to the currency. ELSEIF lv_dcpfm EQ space. You also need to consider that table TCURC may contain entries that do not correspond to ISO currencies and may specify any number of decimal places, for example, USDN with 5 decimal places. It needs to be part of the filter expression, too. The program DEMO_CDS_CURRENCY_CONVERSION accesses the view in a SELECT It is not a topic for a framework in SAP Gateway Foundation that purely deals with specifics of the OData protocol. This function module does not define any Exceptions. The first lines of code in the metadata provider class would create the two properties in the entity type the currency amount and the currency. CONVERT_AMOUNT_TO_CURRENCY Convert an amount from a currency to another (exchange rate taken from database tables) CONVERT_CURRENCY_BY_RATE Convert an amount from a currency to another, according to the passed exchange rate BAPI_CURRENCY_CONV_TO_EXTERNAL Conversion of Currency Amounts into External Data Format SD_CONTRACT_PROPOSE_CONDITIONS- 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. If it does not work as just described, ensure that you check the data type used in the backend, the reference field information in the ABAP dictionary, and the structure binding or the unit property setting in your metadata provider class. It is more likely to get a quick answer. CURR with the same technical attributes as the Rates might not be available for currency pairs, and so on. This function module does not define any TABLE parameters. value1;part2, value2 should be generated as "value1;part2";value2 (and not value1;part2;value2). It is however part of the conversion functions provided by SAP Gateway Foundation to ease UI client development and to efficiently and consistently access the currency specifications in the backend.
