Hi Experts,

I have done the enhancement for VA01 creating a sales order.

whenever user create a new sales order they got an email for the same.

Now when ever I am creating a new sales order in USD currency the amount convert automatically.

In table VBAK for sales order there are two amount available.

Example : if I create a sales order with 792000.0000 USD it is showing data as 79200000.00

Both the amount is available in VBAK table but it will automatically picks the second one.

"It is showing data". What is this "it"?

Are you actually having a problem here, or are you just wondering how data is stored in the database?

Did you perform some search on internal vs external format of currency amounts (it's available in online Abap documentation)

Could you give more information, did the transaction behavior change when you implemented your code to send a mail (did you use standard SAP provided options to do this or did you put some code elsewhere?)

Read a blog such as The quality of an answer depends significantly on the quality of the question (or: how to ask good questions)
