Sapscript for purchase order - wrong format

[Former Member]

HI all,

I am looking at a custom zmedruk form. In the MAIN, there is a line "IL " ",,Deliv. Date &EKET-EINDT&,,,<B> " etc..

The question is the delivery date (Eket-eindt). In the purchase order, sometimes the date format comes in 5/17/2010 or 17.05.2010. Also, i have declared a global variables &Tot_po(12.2)& which is used in the form. This is a packed dcimal.

Sometime this Tot-Po comes out as,for ex, $35.100,50 instead of $35,100.50.

Where i can find out ? English is used. Can anyone pls let me know what is wrong ?

thanks

Hi,

If you want English, you should use EN. Check in SU01 setting and other settings that Basis would be familiar with.

do you get differing formats for the same user? or do different users see different formats?

meaning, if 1 user always sees 1,234.50 and another users always see 1,234,50 it's most likely a setting in their User Data.

HI Robert,

I am testing it. Only one user.

thanks

You must be testing in different clients and you have System>User Profile > Own Data > Defaults set differently in the two clients (or different instances, etc). SAP responds exactly as these settings dictate.

HI,

I believe i use same clients. I have another userid in client 000. So i made the changes. I have to test it out.

Think this will resolved it.

thank you.

Hi Miriam,

I believe it could be client 000. Have basis checked the language being used.
