Left-Justified Filling of IDoc Fields

All fields must be filled left-justified. This happens automatically for character fields. If the original field of the application is a non-character field, you must execute a condense on the corresponding field in the IDoc segment. To find out which fields require a condense, see the documentation structure for a segment type. The name of the documentation structure begins with "E3" or "Z3" (instead of E1 or Z1); otherwise it is the same. This structure contains the same fields as the "E1" or "Z1" structure. But here you will find the original data elements and domains of the application. All fields with a data type other than char, cuky, clnt, accp, numc, dats, tims, or unit require a condense.

We recommend that you encapsulate the code in a <Segment type>_condense subroutine.

You should set left-justification after converting the currency amounts and ISO codes.
