Hi,

These are symbols in SAP Script...

&SYMBOL& No formatting

&SYMBOL+4& Offset - Output begins here. Offset refers to formatted value

&SYMBOL(5)& Length - Output data in the specified length

&SYMBOL(I)& Suppress initial value - If the field has been initialized, nothing is output

&SYMBOL(Z)& Suppress leading zeros

&SYMBOL(C)& Compress blank spaces - Consecutice spaces are compressed into a single space. Leading spacesare suppressed.

&SYMBOL(R)& Right align output

&SYMBOL(S)& Operators are suppressed

&SYMBOL(*)& Dictionary length - The data length is defined by the ABAP dictionary

&SYMBOL(8.2)& Decimal format. Length 8 decimals 2

&'text1'SYMBOL'text2'& Text can be inserted before and after the symbol
