hello experts,,

im currently modifying object for unicode checking im encoutering this error

Error Message: "XBKPF1" and "BUFFER-SEGMENT" are not mutually convertible in a Unicode program.

This is the syntax:

data: begin of xbkpf1 occurs 0.

include structure bkpf.

data: end of xbkpf1.

data: begin of buffer.

include structure arc_buffer.

data: end of buffer.

move buffer-segment to xbkpf1.

How to convert this to a unicode syntax.

Thank You

Hi,

The structure of ARC_BUFFER-SEGMENT and BKPF are not same.

You can split the values in the ARC_BUFFER-SEGMENT field based on the offset values according to BKPF structure and then move each splitted values to the corresponding fields of BKPF structure.

If you are retrieving archived documents, retrieve them directly into a table with the correct structure.
