Error during transport: A DECIMALS specification must be made with P typesin the OO context

[Former Member]

Hi

I am transporting my Gateway request to our Q envorinment, but when we transport we got the error: "A DECIMALS specification must be made with P typesin the OO context"

In our gateway service, we call (and is mapping) our data to a FM from backend (FM: ZMM_VH_EQUNR_FROM_TPLNR_LIST). The fields we are mapping to, is

ZZ_KM_FROM  Datatype: DEC, Length: 7  Decimals 3

ZZ_KM_TO  Datatype: DEC, Length: 7  Decimals 3

In gateway the fields (ZZ_KM_FROM and ZZ_KM_TO) are specified as:

Edm.Decimal

Max length 16

Category: Internal type

Type: Packed

Length: 11

Decimals 4

I guess above can be the reason, but what is the correct to set in the gateway?

Anyone who will help me?

regards
Lars

Hello Lars,

1.Which version of Gateway are you using.

2.What code is generated in MPC  for property ZZ_KM_FROM and ZZ_KM_TO .

3.In which class you are getting the syntax error and what is the erroneous code ?

Hi Atanu

1) Our version is 2.0 SP 6

2) I can not see, that anything related to ZZ_KM_FROM and ZZ_KM_TO is created in MPC

3) I got the error in this include ZIF_ZMM_VH_EQUNR_DETAIL=======IU where the error description is: "Program ZIF_ZMM_VH_EQUNR_DETAIL=======IP, Include ZIF_ZMM_VH_EQUNR_DETAIL=======IU: Syntax error in line 000574

A DECIMALS specification must be made with P typesin the OO context."

The code looks like this

begin of ZMDC_HISTORY_STRUCTURE,
       ZZ_INDMELDT_AF type C length 000012,
       ZZ_INDMELDT_DATO type DATS,
       ZZ_KM_FRA type P length 000004,
       ZZ_KM_TIL type P length 000004,
       ZZ_OFFSET type P length 000007,
     end of ZMDC_HISTORY_STRUCTURE .

(line 574 is marked with bold)

Does above give you any chance to help me further?

Thanks in advance

You can manually  edit the code and specify something like

ZZ_KM_FRA TYPE P LENGTH 11 DECIMALS 4 to get rid of the error.

Hi Atanu

Thanks, I will do that.

As the first transport went wrong, how should I need ensure, that I got all objects transported. Should I just add all objects from my first transport, to my new transport?

Not sure... but I think all the objects form your old transport and the new code for fix you can re transport once again ..
