Short Dump while multiplying curr & decimal

[Former Member]

I have a small equation like this:

p0008-ansal = p0008-ansal * p0027-kpr02 / 100.

Apparently both the internal format seems to be P type but of different lengths. Since am multiplying a currency (ansal) with decimal (kpr02), am really not able to understand why its throwing dump.

Below is the dump:

Error analysis

An arithmetic operation in the current program "ZHRPA_COST_DIST" attempts

to process a field of type P that contains an invalid

BCD format.

Possible reasons:

1. If the field is part of a field string and its current contents are

hex 20: The field string was deleted with MOVE SPACE ... instead of

CLEAR.

2. The VARYING parameter was incorrectly placed within a DO loop,

e.g. because the TIMES parameter was too large.

Similar for WHILE ... VARY.

3. A FIELD-SYMBOL was incorrectly assigned.

Any clues plz...

Thanks

Multipling currency with amount?

i guess you should have a conversion factor of currency instead, which would be integer..

When you multiply these you get proper answer.

Hi,

AM multiplying with Currency with Decimals..i.e a fraction. and then dividing by 100.

can you please explain with a example. I ddint understand what you tried to say.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

what is the type of your amount and currency

[Former Member]

Dollars.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

what is the technical characterstics?

dollars as in what ?

it is currency?

then how can you multiply this with amount?

[Former Member]

Hi Kiran,

Your dump claims there is an issue with the "BCD format"

This means the thousand and decimal separators are interchanged in one of the fields (ansal or kpr02) as against the user settings and hence the issue.

In debugging can you confirm the formats?

Cheers,

I am executing this report for several pernrs. But its failing at only 1 case and i could find any problem with the data.

Below is the data from debug mode:

kpr : 3.00 ( type: p(3) decimals 2)

ansal: 132321.10 (type: p(8) decimals 2)

Any clues plz.

Thanks

Kiran

Hi,

Try this.

data v1 type p0008-ansal value '132321.10'.

data v2 type p0027-kpr02 value '3.00'.

data v3(21) type c.

v3 = ( v1 * v2 ) / 100.

v1 = v3.

write v1.

[Former Member]

Hi Jayanthi,

Dump is occuring only for that particular record. rest of the records are passing successfully. So can you please tell me any specific reason for this?

thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

Hi Jayanthi,

I tried that way and still no charm.

It failed again for the same record.

this is the code

DATA: l_ansal_temp(21) TYPE c.

l_ansal_temp = L_ANSAL * W_KPR / 100.

move l_ansal to lni-ansal.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

See if this helps:

p0008-ansal = p0008-ansal  / 100.
p0008-ansal = p0008-ansal * p0027-kpr02

.

Rob

[Former Member]

Rob,

This did not bring too

As I said, its dumping only with one pernr. Rest all are passing thru fine. Am not finding any fault with the values too... Any more clues plz.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

Which line did it dump on and what were the vaules? (I'm guessing the division.)

Rob

[Former Member]

Oops it was at a different line but the dump says description remains the same:

My Code:

if not p0008-ansal eq 0.

p0008-ansal = p0008-ansal / 100.

p0008-ansal = p0008-ansal * p0027-kpr02

endif. --> Dump Pointing here now.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

So your original problem is solved?

Rob

[Former Member]

But still am getting the same dump at endif.

Any more clues plz..

thanks

kiran

[Former Member]

Same problem or something new? What error does the new dump give?

Rob

[Former Member]

hi try like this,

ansal -> (type: p(12) decimals 2)

This error may be because of overflow.

Regards

[jayanthi_jayaraman]

Hi,

DATA: l_ansal_temp(21) TYPE c.

l_ansal_temp = L_ANSAL * W_KPR / 100.

lni-ansal = l_ansal_temp.

I think you moved l_ansal instead of temp.

[Former Member]

Hi Jayanthi,

I corrected but still no charm.

This is driving me crazy. The same equation is working fine upt 1980 records and failing at 1981 records. So I dont see any data type issue. Any more clues plz...

Thanks

Kiran

Hi Kiran ,

Can u send the rest of the code , may be the debugging analysis has not performed correctly.

because the dump occurs at line which u have not mentioned above.

Thks

[Former Member]

its dumping while multiplying dude.

almost 1980 records passed well. but i dont really understand why its dumping after that.

thanks

Maybe it's time you bite the bullet and solve it yourself. There's not much the forum can do without your system, data and program.

Please add the 25 TIMES addition and check if it works.

[Former Member]

Hi Kiran

Some issue with data type L_ANSAL I think in run time some where it is becoming character.

[Former Member]

Awesome.

This addition solved my problem.

Nothing specific to data types.

I did not realize that I should be explicitly loop 25times.

So it's not at the ENDIF. Are you sure it's pointing at this line?

Yes, Its not at ENDIF.

[Former Member]

I'm confused. Is this a new problem or your original one?

Rob

[Former Member]

yes, Its a new one.

But both are similar and in the same program.

If you see the code, i got my 1st dump at

• LNI-ANSAL = L_ANSAL * W_KPR / 100.

which i changed it to:

IF NOT l_ansal EQ 0.

lni-ansal = l_ansal / 100.

lni-ansal = l_ansal * w_kpr.

ENDIF.

after your suggestion

I have one more line of code like:

• LNI-BETRG = L_BETRG * W_KPR / 100.

So i changed this also to:

IF NOT l_betrg EQ 0. -

---

> Now its dumping out here.

lni-betrg = l_betrg / 100.

lni-betrg = l_betrg * w_kpr.

ENDIF.

Pl let me know, if u need any more details.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

I assume l_betrg has some value. Can you tell what it is? Can you see where in the program it is poulated?

Rob

[Former Member]

When the dump occurs, l_betrg value is 0.0

I saw this in the debugger.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

0.0 or 0.00 ?

Rob

[Former Member]

Its my bad again.Am sorry.

0.00.

Thanks

Kiran

[Former Member]

So, at the statement just before it dumps, the value is 0.00 ? Or is it somewhere else?

Rob

[Former Member]

Its value is 0.00, the moment it enters the DO loop.

Thanks,

kiran

Hi Rob,

actually I debugged it line by line. Dump happened on this line

lni-ansal = l_ansal * w_kpr

but when i see it in ST22, its pointing to the next line (if not l_betrg eq 0). Sorry for all the confusion.Dump happened after 1980 loops. i.e sy-tabix is 1980.

Hence, the original problem is not solved.

And the values are as below:

l_ansal = 132321.10

lni_ansal = 1323.21

w_kpr = 3.00

so when its multiplying 1323.21 * 3.00, its throwing the dump.

Any more thoughts plz...

Thanks

Kiran

Edited by: kiran dasari on Apr 28, 2009 7:54 PM

[Former Member]

check the data type of this lni-ansal<< this shud be same datatype as the values you multiplying.

[Former Member]

Any more clues...

Thanks
