SAP ALV input decimal problem

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I've used the ALV as an input control and make some columns as editable. However, when I input the decimal and update it to internal table, the result will be divied by 10^n (n is the decimal places).

My code is like below

internal table definition:

DATA: BEGIN OF it_output OCCURS 0,
        price TYPE p DECIMALS 2,
      END OF it_output.

fieldcat definition:

  it_fieldcat-fieldname = 'PRICE'.
  it_fieldcat-edit = 'X'.
  it_fieldcat-seltext_s = text-f07.
  it_fieldcat-seltext_m = text-f07.
  it_fieldcat-seltext_l = text-f07.
  it_fieldcat-decimals_out = 2.

What I want is when I input '100', the result should be '100.00', but not '1.00'.

Hi,

DATA: BEGIN OF it_output OCCURS 0,

price(10) TYPE p DECIMALS 2, " Lenght should be given

END OF it_output.

Sorry, but it doesn't work.

In a type P field, the decimal point is implied. In your case, SAP is correctly assuming that 100 is 1.00. If you want something different, you need to put the value into a character field, examine for a decimal, add a decimal and two zeroes if it is not there, then put back into your type p field.

something like:

data: charf15) type c.

charf = packedf.
if charf cs '.'.
else.
concatenate charf '.00' into charf.
endif.
pacedf = charf.

I haven't tried it, but I wonder if something like

it_fieldcat-edit_mask = 'RR_______.__' .

would work.
