Amount Conversion

Former Member — Fri, 20 Jul 2007 12:34:06 GMT

Hi All,

I have an amount field say NET_AMT. I want it to get converted according to the decimal notation of the system settings.

I have declared new_amt1 as type Char and have used

Write: NET_AMT to new_amt1.

This piece of code is written in the Smartform.

The system settings is in the format 1 234 567,89 but I do not get the amount converted accordingly.

What can I do?

Check the User settings in SU01 Tcode for defaults.

and use the command

SET COUNTRY 'IN'. for country India( to print 1,00,345.00)

use this and see to print/write the country specific decimals..

Hi,

If you want data with decimal notation try by declaring the new_amt1 of type NETWR. and also use SET COUNTRY 'US' etc.
