Definition

Class that the system uses to convert an object ID from a DDIC structure to internal format and vice versa, or to convert an object ID from a DDIC structure to external format.

Use

If the standard logic for converting an object ID is insufficient, you can specify here a class to be used.

The system uses the conversion class as follows:

  • Converting an object ID from DDIC structure format to internal format

    The system uses the class to create the object ID in a format that can be entered in database tables.

  • Converting an object ID from internal format to DDIC structure format

    The system uses the class to create the object ID out of the format in a database table.

  • Converting an object ID from DDIC structure format to external format

    The system uses the class to create the object ID in a format that is displayed on the Web UI.

You enter the conversion class to be used when converting the ID to and from internal format in the Class for Conversion to Internal Format field.

You enter the conversion class to be used when converting the ID to external format in the Class for Conversion to External Format field.

Note that these fields are optional. If you do not enter a class in this field, the system uses standard logic to convert the object ID.

Dependencies

The class for internal format conversion must exist in the /PLMB/IF_GOS_CNV_INT interface.

The class for external format conversion must exist in the /PLMB/IF_GOS_CNV_EXT interface.
