-ve sign problem

[Former Member]

hi experts,

I have a negative sign problem with a field on <b> modulpool screen.</b>

field name : xyz

domain : zxyz - with type DEC 13 decimal places 2. <b>Sign check box ticked</b>.

<b>during runtime if this field is populated with a -ve value , the program throws a dump saying there is a conversion error.</b>

Can anyone help me to know what can be the reason for this

thanks in advance.

Hi Rashmi..

To avoid Short dump for negative values in Module pool.

You have to <b>set the Property "With Sign(Checkbox) " in the Screen Painter</b> in the Attributes of your field (Input/Output field). Then only you can display negative values in a field.

This will surely work..

Flag for sign in numerical fields

If fields referring to this domain can contain negative values, this flag must he set.

When the field contents are output on the screen, the first position of the output is reserved for a sign. If the flag is not set but the field contains negative values, problems might occur during screen output.

<b>You can only make entries in this field for data types DEC, FLTP, QUAN and CURR.</b>

Make sure that the flag is checked and also make sure that you enter a value which is compatible to DEC 13 and decimal places 2.

hope it will resolve ur prob. ne query ping me back.

Try this domain

see the domain MENGV8 or MENGV*

It may help to solve your problem

OR

You need to do one thing , go to the screen in screen painter, click on the element list tab, now click on the text and i/o templetes tab, now find your field in the list, now in the "Text O/I Field" column you need to add a V to the _____________ so that it looks like this.

______________V

The "V" is like a place for a '-' sign.

Also make sure that you field in the screen painter is defined as DEC.
