Display problem with QUAN - comma instead point

[#1]

Hi all,

we habe a display problem. The values of a component type MENGV13 (data type QUAN 13) are correct in the context with a point e.g. 8.500 but in the web dynpro application in a Table TextView-UI-Element they are displayed as 8,600, with a comma.

What can we do? Is there e.g. a general web dynpro customizing needed?

Thanks, regards

Thank you, I changed the decimal notation to 1,234,567.89 then the WD application displays a dot.

That would be ok so far. But normaly a user doesn't see the WD application on the WD server, cause the application is integrated in a SAP Portal which is on another server. And in der portal the WD application displays still a comma instead a dot. And it doesn't matter whether I personalize the Portal in German or English. What can I do?

I don't want to do hard-coding with TRANSLATE cause then everybody see it in the same way and not like the user it's used. First I thougth this would be ok but I changed my opinion in this point.

Any other ideas?

Hi

USually in ABAP Smartform when we face this issue of comma and dot we create a local variable of character and move our value from QUAN to it it automically picks the format from SU01.  I am just a beginner in Webdynpro please check the field properties and check if you can specify UOM etc.
