Post by jweir »

Hello,

I have field in SAP that is being read using ABAP Extract stage. This field's data type is BIN1. How can I convert it to ASCII in datastage?

Sorry, have zero experience with SAP. How about your official support provider?

I'd suggest TinyInt() as the appropriate receiving data type. The TinyInt will, of course, only ever have 0 or 1 as its value.
