Short Dump... Help?

Former Member — Wed, 02 Jan 2013 16:19:09 GMT

I received this abap dump. Any suggestions on how to adjust the code?

Runtime Errors BCD_ZERODIVIDE

Exception CX_SY_ZERODIVIDE

Date and Time 01/02/2013 10:50:01

Short text

Division by 0 (type P) in program "/ITS/MM_PPV_REP"

What happened?

Error in the ABAP Application Program

The current ABAP program "/ITS/MM_PPV_REP" had to be terminated becaus

come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.

* Accounting clearing in KP PPV

WHEN 'K'.

<GS_ATAB>-KPPPV = <GS_ATAB>-KPPPV +

( RSEG-MENGE * <GS_ATAB>-GR_PRI ).

ENDCASE.

* Delete entry

DELETE TABLE GT_RSEG FROM RSEG.

ENDLOOP.

* Calculate price

PERFORM CALC_PRIC USING <GS_ATAB>-IR_QTY <GS_ATAB>-IR_VAL

CHANGING <GS_ATAB>-IR_PRI.

IF <GS_ATAB>-IR_VAL = 0.

<GS_ATAB>-PPV_INV = 0.

ELSE.

<GS_ATAB>-PPV_INV = ( <GS_ATAB>-IR_PRI - <GS_ATAB>-GR_PRI )

* <GS_ATAB>-IR_QTY.

ENDIF.

* Calculate the total

<GS_ATAB>-TOTAL_PPV = <GS_ATAB>-PPV + <GS_ATAB>-PPV_INV.

* Calculate variance

CLEAR: <GS_ATAB>-VARIA, <GS_ATAB>-VARIP.

" <GS_ATAB>-VARIA = <GS_ATAB>-IR_PRI - <GS_ATAB>-STPRS. " MSP 10MAY12

" NEW Formula: Variance := Total PPV / GR Quantity

<GS_ATAB>-VARIA = <GS_ATAB>-TOTAL_PPV / <GS_ATAB>-GR_QTY. " MSP 10MAY12

* in %

IF NOT <GS_ATAB>-STPRS EQ 0.

<GS_ATAB>-VARIP = <GS_ATAB>-VARIA * 100 / <GS_ATAB>-STPRS.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

The same check which you have performed here:

IF NOT <GS_ATAB>-STPRS EQ 0. <--- this check

<GS_ATAB>-VARIP = <GS_ATAB>-VARIA * 100 / <GS_ATAB>-STPRS.

ENDIF.

You should check if the field which you are using the formulas to divide should not be 0

It's hard to believe this could not be resolved without help from SCN. What analysis have you done before posting on SCN?

This is a catchable exception, so it should be treated in the code instead of waiting for a short dump. Like this, for example (check Help for what exception handling is available in your SAP version):

TRY.
<...>
CATCH cx_sy_arithmetic_error.
<...>
ENDTRY.

If division by zero occurs, it might also indicate that there is some error before that, e.g. a value was not calculated correctly or is missing.
