hi tahar,

i am getting the result as 37.50- when I execute the following code:

DATA: gv_tot_rem_dev type kawrt,
       gv_taux type kkurs,
       result type p LENGTH 15 DECIMALS 2.

gv_tot_rem_dev = '-24599.62'.
gv_taux = '655.95700'.

result = gv_tot_rem_dev / gv_taux.

write: / result.

May be you are making some mistake. It is better you cross check it.

When you create a new program, you have to check the fixed point arithmetic check box. Please find the attached screen shot.

Go to your print program for smart forms and select the attribute radio button.

Check whether the Fixed point arithmetic is selected.

Hi,

If you have not checked fixed arithmetic checkbox, then other solution is divide the result amount always by 1000. This is will give you correct result.

Thank you very much for your valuable answer . I prefer to go with checking the arithmetic box.
