Dear All

I am facing a strange issue first time. I have data type

DATA: AMT LIKE BSEG-NETWR.

AMT = 232323.233-

Figure in variable AMT is in negative.

But when i use Write statement to print it on list negative sign is not appearing.

Write:\ AMT.

I also tried AMT = AMT * -1.

But not working.

change the logic so that by using CONCATENATE statement u can populate -ve sign for the particular value in the output.

Yes that is possible but my question is whats wrong with write statement. Because Write prints a negative amount in negative there is no need for any further logic.

I don't know whats wrong in my case.

Change the sign to front and see,

DATA : amt LIKE bseg-netwr.

amt = -232323.233.

WRITE 😕 amt.

Hi,

check your variable length.

if it is sufficient...then try to concatenate the value into that variable and display it. it will solve your problem.

Hi,

Please try this ..

DATA :v_data TYPE p DECIMALS 2,

l_str TYPE string,

l_str1 TYPE string,

l_str2 TYPE string.

v_data = '-300'.

l_str = v_data.

CALL FUNCTION 'CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT'

CHANGING

value = l_str.

MOVE l_str to v_data.

SPLIT l_str at '.' INTO l_str1 l_str2.

WRITE: / l_str1.
