It seems like your output is the internal representation of a number with fixed length and decimals (only decimal point, no thousands separator for digit grouping). So no Output Conversion has taken place for your 'output'. What coding/technique are you using to output the data?

Please provide coding or screenshots:

1. Defintion of variable
2. Setting value of variable
3. Using variable for output
4. What/where is the output?
   a) Selection-Screen of Report
   b) Selection-Screen Output of Report with WRITE commands
   c) Dynpro Screen
   d) Messages/Logging for Jobs in SM37 or Logs in SLG1
   e) Export to file e.g. Excel
   f) others?

Be also aware, that depending on the DDIC data element or the ABAP internal type, that the format of the displayed numbers is in general dependent on your default user settings (System->User Profile->Own Data->Defaults->Decimal Notation):

• [ ] 1.234.567,89
• [X] 1,234,567.89
• [Y] 1 234 567,89

For DDIC domains that are assigned to the data elements, there can also be a CONVERSION-EXIT defined, that also changes how the output is presented, and this can be different for different SAP Releases:

• in Rel. 753 WRBTR has the Domain AFLE13D2O16N_TO_23D2O30N with the Conversion-Exit AU132
  Data Type CURR with 23 characters including 2 decimal places and the output lenght is 30 characters (for digit grouping)
• in Rel. 740 WRBTR has the Domain WERT7 with no Conversion-Exit (so only default user settings apply)
  Data Type CURR with 13 characters including 2 decimal places and the output lenght is 16 characters (for digit grouping)

Hi,

I would like to add that you also can use String Expressions to change the output of fieldvalues - of course also for decimals fields.

Check: String Embedded Expressions: DECIMALS and NUMBER.
