Decimal data type

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have declared a data type as

DATA: l_wa_poaccount TYPE bapimepoaccount

in an include. bapimepoaccount is a structure which has a field DISTR_PERC which is of data type DEC, length 3 decimal 1.

Now my question is will this field accept total 3 characters, out of which one will be after the decimal or will it accept total 4 characters out of which one will be after the decimal.

Thanks in advance.

I had check the F1 help for Length for domain WRBTR , it says

Number of valid positions of a field without editing characters (e.g.

commas or points).

So in ur case it will 23.3 , total length of digits will be 3
