Infopack Error ( does not contain alpha conforming value 10)

Former Member

When I try to run my infopack which pulla data from BW into APO, the data load fails with the error below:

"InfoObject /BIC/XXXX does not contain alpa-conforming value 10" when I click on the details icon, I get the following description.

Can somebody please throw some light on this as I am new to DP/BW. Appreciate your help if someone can help me with fixing this problem.

Diagnosis

The system checked whether the loaded InfoObject value conforms to the

conversion exit.The check failed.

For example:

The value '1' was loaded into an InfoObject with alpha exit, even though

the value '0000000001' was expected.

System response

The load process has failed or the erroneous records are displayed in

the monitor. This does not depend on how error handling is set up.

Procedure

Find out why the data does not conform to the conversion exit, and, if

possible, correct the cause. Possible causes are errors in Business

Content or an error in a customer exit in the source system.

If you cannot correct the problem, you have the option of removing the

conversion exit on the InfoObject. However, since the system has already

been converted, duplicates appear in the system again.

Thanks

Hello Varun,

BW expects your Key Figures to be stored in "alpha conforming format". This is can be roughly described as having 0s in front. For example, if your key figure value is 10, then the alpha conforming value of that is 000000000000000010 (assuming the number of chars in your KF is 18).

To correct the error do the following:

In your transfer rule in BW for InfoObject /BIC/XXXX, implement an ABAP routine that calls function module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT. Here an example of the ABAP code you should put in your transfer rule for /BIC/XXXX:


CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
  EXPORTING
    input         = TRAN_STRUCTURE-/bic/xxxx
 IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = RESULT.

Hope this helps. Please post again if you have questions.
