Check failed in condition

[friendlycoder]

Hi all,

I am using simple transformation to serialize and deserialize a XML file.Some of the xml element is optional which means it can appear in the XML structure but it is not a must.
The code below is a snippet from the transformation file that I have created:

    ....
    <tt:cond check="$INVL.PRICE.PRICE_AMOUNT > P(0.00)">
      <cbc:PriceAmount>
        <tt:attribute name="currencyID" value-ref="$INVL.PRICE.PRICE_CURRENCY"/>
        <tt:value ref="$INVL.PRICE.PRICE_AMOUNT"/>
      </cbc:PriceAmount>
    </tt:cond>
    ....

What it should do is to check if the value of INVL.PRICE.PRICE_AMOUNT is greater then 0.00. The PRICE_AMOUNT has data type CURR length 23 decimal 2.However when the amount is 0.00 as the example shows below the system dumps.

    <cac:Price>
      <cbc:PriceAmount currencyID="EUR">0.00</cbc:PriceAmount>
    </cac:Price>

The error message:
An exception has occurred in class "CX_ST_COND_CHECK_FAIL". As the exceptionwas not

caught, a runtime error occurred. The reason for the exception
occurring was:
The following error has occurred in row 147 of program
XML_FILE==============XT: "Check failed in condition"

What am I doing wrong?
Best regards

Hi,

have you included: <tt:switch-var> ?

ST - tt:switch-var, Case Distinction for Variables - ABAP Keyword Documentation (sap.com)

Conditional transformations are normally used as cases in tt:switch and tt:group.

or try to replace > with "& g t ;" (without spaces)

<tt:condcheck="$INVL.PRICE.PRICE_AMOUNT > P(0.00)">
