BCD_ZERODIVIDE

Hi all,

the program on execution, throws an error " BCD_ZERODIVIDE ".

This is due to the fact that, a line in the program has attempted to divide by Zero.

eg:

V_PERCENT = ( A / B ) * 100.

Here,

the value of B is zero, and hence this ABAP runtime.

What are the logics could be implied, when B is zero. I have no option to throw an error mmessage, because it is a report,, am really unaware what even the report is doing.. suggest the ways to handle this situation.

thanks in adv..

Hi,

Just change code as

<b>IF B IS NOT INITIAL.

V_PERCENT = ( A / B ) * 100.

ENDIF.</b>

Hi,

Before that statement check B should not be initial.

EX.

If not b is initial.

V_PERCENT = ( A / B ) * 100.

endif.
