Put single quotes around 0.05.

L_BKED = L_BKED + ( ( WA_XVBAP-KWMENG ) * ( '0.05' ) ).

w_var1 = WA_XVBAP-KWMENG * 0.05 .

First, you dont need all these paranthesis.

Second the constant should always be in quotes '0.05'. Change this and you wont get the error.

Hi,

you need to put parentheses whenever you are using decimals in your calculation method.

Please reward if you find the answer useful.

Thanks,
