Number conversion issue

Former Member — Mon, 13 Dec 2010 15:24:10 GMT

Hi all.

I have the following code with me:

data:w_s1 type c,

w_q1_act_rec1(14) type c,

W_q LIKE EKPO-MENGE.

w_s1 = '-'.

w_q = '52352.900'.

write w_q to w_q1

concatenate w_s1 w_q1 into W_Q1.

condense W_Q1.

W_Q = W_Q1.

when i execute the above code I get the following short dump:

The program attempted to interpret the value "- 52,352.900 " as a number, but

since the value contravenes the rules for correct number formats,

this was not possible.

the program is giving me a dump when I am insertinf w_Q1's value to W_Q.

As far as I know W_Q should hold -ve sign.

Hi rajatg,

you can achieve your desired result just with the following, you don't need the concatenation for the sign.


data: W_q LIKE EKPO-MENGE.
w_q = '52352.900'.
w_q = - w_q.

Basically you want add a negation sign in front of quantity .

w_q1_act_rec1(14) type c,

W_q LIKE EKPO-MENGE.

There is type mismatch here.

Hi,

Menge does not support negative values and i think the weight can´t be negative........... right?

The data element BSTMG - Domain MENG13 - 13,3.

MENGEV supports that..
