Hi Friends,

I'm facing a problem with a currency field of infotype 8.The field is of currency type with length 17 and 2 decimals.When i do the calculation for this field,this field stores 0.05 instead of 5.How to convert this value as a whole no.

RESULT-AMOUNT is of type currency of length 17 and decimals 2.

M_BTR is of type currency of length 13 and decimals 2.

P0008-DIVGV is of type decimals of length 5 and decimals 2

For ex, RESULT-AMOUNT = ( M_BTR / P0008-DIVGV ).

Here in above statement M_BTR = 833.33

P0008-DIVGV = 162.5

so RESULT-AMOUNT should be 5.13 instead of 0.05.

Can anyone tell me on how to correct this from 0.05 to 5.13 as per this example.Also i should not change the data type definition of RESULT-AMOUNT.

Regards,

Vadivel.

hello,

RESULT-AMOUNT = ( M_BTR / P0008-DIVGV ) * <b>100.</b>
