Documentation
Definition
Master object fields that are split into several fields in CAM must be concatenated during conversion from CAM to master data (for parallel procurement of data for master data tables).
Information in a field such as KNA1-TELF1 may be split into 2 fields: TEL_NUMBER for the area code and telephone number, TEL_EXTENS for the extension number. If you now want to fill field KNA1-TELF1 for conversion out of CAM, then these two CAM fields must be concatenated.
To do this in the correct sequence, you must number the fields with the correct sequential numbers in field CONCATENATE of the function module. In the example given above, the sequential numbering for the telephone codes would be as follows:
TEL_NUMBER 1
TEL_EXTENS 2
When converting from the master data into CAM, the contents of such fields are only written to the field with concatenation number 1 (here: KNA1-TELF1 would only be copied to TEL_NUMBER, because there is no algorithm to correctly distribute the information " telephone number and extension number" between the two fields. Fields with a 1:1 display in CAM have a value of 0 (initial) here.
