Code to quickly convert timestamps (type TZNTSTMPL for instance) to date & time :

DATA : lv_tmstp         TYPE TZNTSTMPL, " 20260326181521000000
       lv_datetime_text TYPE CHAR22.

CONVERT TIME STAMP lv_tmstp TIME ZONE 'UTC' INTO DATE DATA(lv_date) TIME DATA(lv_time). 
" UTC for local time
" lv_date type DATUM = 20260326, WRITE in FR format => 26.03.2026,
" lv_time type tims = 181521, WRITE => 18:15:21.

" Code example to get date time :
" -------------------------------
lv_datetime_text = |{ lv_date DATE = USER } { lv_time(2) }:{ lv_time+2(2) }:{ lv_time+4(2) }|.
" lv_datetime_text : 26.03.2026 - 18:15:21
" (date format can change according to user parameters)

This post just to save time, instead of doing where-used on VTWEG field…

Type table of VTWEG : TDT_VTWEG => line type VTWEG

Type table of VTWEG : TMS_T_VTWEG_RANGE => line type TABLE_LINE

Type range of VTWEG : RANGE_VTWEG_TAB
❗ Warning, this uses structure in package not maintained, it generates ATC check errors, see note 2469385 ❗.

Instead of declaring constants in reports to manage ranges, save time and use attributes of interface IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE :

IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_BETWEEN.              " Type DDOPTION    'BT'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_CONTAINS_PATTERN.     " Type DDOPTION    'CP'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_EQUAL.                " Type DDOPTION    'EQ'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_GREATER.              " Type DDOPTION    'GT'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_GREATER_EQUAL.        " Type DDOPTION    'GE'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_LESS.                 " Type DDOPTION    'LT'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_LESS_EQUAL.           " Type DDOPTION    'LE'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_NOT_BETWEEN.          " Type DDOPTION    'NB'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_NOT_CONTAINS_PATTERN. " Type DDOPTION    'NP'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>OPTION_NOT_EQUAL.            " Type DDOPTION    'NE'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>SIGN_EXCLUDE.                " Type DDSIGN      'E'
IF_FSBP_CONST_RANGE=>SIGN_INCLUDE.                " Type DDSIGN      'I'

Use ceil( ) or floor( ) to round decimal to integer, respectively to upper or lower integer value.

  DATA(lv_upper_value) = ceil( '0.333' ). " ==> 1

  DATA(lv_lower_value) = floor( '1.66' ). " ==> 1

Use the round( ) method to have more possibilities :

  DATA : lv_percentage TYPE numc3.
  " [...]

  " In this case, the percentage calc is round to lower integer value :
  lv_percentage =  = CONV #( round( val  = lv_num / lv_total * 100
                                    dec  = 0
                                    mode = cl_abap_math=>round_down )  ).

You can specify in wich mode you want to round number with :

CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_HALF_UP	|	Round away from zero if value is exactly half
CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_HALF_DOWN	|	Round to zero if value is exactly half
CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_HALF_EVEN	|	Round so last digit is an even no. if value is exactly half
CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_UP		|	Round away from zero
CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_DOWN	|	Round to Zero
CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_CEILING	|	Round to Positive Infinity
CL_ABAP_MATH=>ROUND_FLOOR	|	Round to Negative Infinity
