BO 5.1.8 - Decimal "zeroed" in reports though DB data contain decimal valu

Hello,
I've a problem with a report.
In my DB2 8.2 db I've a field defined as "DECIMAL" (that contains values with decimal of course...ex.: 100,48).
In my report, I get all the decimal of that field (and others) rounded like "xxx,00" (ex.: 100,00)
The values before de decimal are correct, but the values after the decimal are all ",00"
Within the data manager, I can see the values without decmals (ex: 100), so I weel understand it comes from that part, but how can I change this?
I've checked the Regional settings of my PC, all possible config in BO and in DB2 client but cannot find a clue for this.
Any suggestion would be warmly welcomed!!
Thanks a lot.

Hi Jean,
Could you please test the following solutions.
Solution1:
1.Change the object definition in the designer by adding Zero (0) or by multiplying with One (1).
Ex: SalesRevenue*1
Or
SalesRevenue+0
2. Save the Universe and test the issue.
Solution2:
Use database-level syntax to convert the numeric database field to a string so that Deski Reports will interpret it as a string type, and display all of the characters.
For example, in Oracle, cast the number using to_char () and in Microsoft SQL Server use CAST() or STR() prior to adding the field to the report.

eg: 2.3456.000
user wants only 2.3456 no decimals.
how we can aviod decimals 0 s in report.
thanks in advance.
mahahe

I search this ways in the forums:
Shift
SHIFT varb1 RIGHT DELETING TRAILING '0'.
write: gv_variable decimals 0.
SHIFT VALUE LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.
Shift2
DATA: T(14) VALUE ' abcdefghij',
STRING LIKE T,
STR(6) VALUE 'ghijkl'.
STRING = T.
WRITE STRING.
SHIFT STRING LEFT DELETING LEADING SPACE (or use 0 to detete 0).
WRITE / STRING.
STRING = T.
SHIFT STRING RIGHT DELETING TRAILING STR or 0.
WRITE / STRING.
Shift3
data amt(6) type p decimals 3 value '123.450'.
data amt1(6) type p decimals 2.
data amt_c(6) type c.
unpack amt to amt_c.
shift amt_c right deleting trailing '0'.
pack amt_c to amt1.
write amt1.
use FM
FTR_CORR_SWIFT_DELETE_ENDZERO
this FM will remove all the zeros from decimal values like
value - 234.8000000
output - 234.8
IF
data: var1 type p decimals 3,
      var2 type p decimals 2,
      var3 type p decimals 1.
move '12345.100' to var1.
move var1 to var2.
move var1 to var3.
if var2 = var1.
if var3 = var1.
    write var3.
else.
    write var2.
endif.
else.
write var1.
endif.
I hope that this solve your problem.
Cordial greetings.

Decimal value inconsistency in web reports

Hi All,
I have a scenario where reports running on test and quality server are showing different outputs in wad in terms of decimal notation.
In one system the currency key figure is coming as 3,500.00 while in other system value is appearing as 3.500,00.
Basically decimal and comma values are getting replaced. We have check SU01 settings also and they are maintained in simlar manner in both systems. Is there any other place where these settings are maintained in system which is leadng to this discrepancy. Please let us know if there are some settings in SPRO or somewhere else which are system dependent and is causing this issue.
Thanks
Rahul Mahajan

Hello,
Are you executing both the reports in same work station or different work stations ?
Because the windows settings ( control panel -Time and date settings) will influence the ',' and :." notation in all reports, though not specific to web reports.
Are you also facing the same issue in work books also ?
Regds,

Display decimal values in report

Hi all,
I have one question concerning the display of decimal values smaller than '1' in a report.
In an SQL query some calculations are done and the result is displayed in a report.
The problem is, that if the value of the result is smaller than '1' it shows for example ,8 instead of 0,8
Does anybody know how to display decimal values normally?
kind Regards and thanks!!
Patrick

Hi SWED!
1.) Click at the name of your report region (in application builder) to edit it
2.) Select the "report attributes" tab
3.) Click at the column you want to format
4.) Look for the "Column Formatting" region
5.) Select the proper format from the "Number / Date Format" list or enter your own format like "0.0"
I hope that will help you along.
yours sincerely

Any std funtion(s) for Zero-padded, 2 decimal value, without the deci point

Hi,
We want Zero-padded, two decimal value, without the decimal point. For example if it is 14.31, we need 001431.
I have done "multiply" with 100 and "formatNumber" as '000000'
SFIeld --> multiply * 100 --> formatNumber (000000) --> TField
It works good for values with decimal like above 14.31, does it work for everything else too? I mean for 12 it is populating as 001200. Is this best approach? Is there any other std funtions or UDF sample available?

Interesting Issue...
Jst in case are you looking at the same data/same selections ?
Any Coding/VBA used to suppress zeroes ?

[svn] 3189: Accepted patch supplied in SDK-16641 and SDK-16643 to fix bad text measurement when the textIndent style is non-zero (as reported in SDK-16454 and SDK-15558).

Revision: 3189 Author: [email protected] Date: 2008-09-11 17:33:50 -0700 (Thu, 11 Sep 2008) Log Message: ----------- Accepted patch supplied in SDK-16641 and SDK-16643 to fix bad text measurement when the textIndent style is non-zero (as reported in SDK-16454 and SDK-15558). The reported width should include the indent. Although this fixes the problems reported with Accordion and Button labels (and some other components like Panel that appeared in the bug examples), it doesn't fix the Text component (even though it appeared in the bug eaxmple for SDK-15558). For example, the following still is truncated for some reason: <mx:Text text="This mx:text gets truncated" textIndent="50"/> This is presumably a separate bug, so I'm accepting the patch as being a step forward even if not a complete solution to textIndent-related measurement problems.

Webi Report ignores decimal values

Hi,
I have a report which takes data from a BI Infocube. I have BOE XI 3.1 installed on two systems. When I run this report on one system, the report works fine and numeric values are displayed along with decimal values ( ex 100.25). However the same report when executed in the other system ignores the decimal values (ex 100).
I check the preferred viewing locale in the preferences and it is set to default values in both the systems.
I have no clue what could have gone wrong.
Any inputs on this issue will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Rahul Mainkar

You are right. No Fix Pack is installed.
Probably the system, which is NOT truncating the decimal part has been installed on a Windows server where the local system account has EN-US regional settings. This should not be the case for the system which is truncating your numbers.
A work-around is to create a domain account which is member of the local administrators group on the BOBJ servers. You should log on once on each of your two servers using this account and adjust the Regional Setting (Start->Control Panel) to English-United States. Invoke the CCM utility and open the Properties window of your SIA and Tomcat. Enter the credentials of your new user in the "Run as" area and restart your services. This will solve your problem.

Please help me on this.

Hi
For more info,
The function of the statement UNPACK is based on the fact, that the BCD display of a decimal place corresponds to the second half-byte of code of a digit in the most character representations. This conversion is commonly called "unpacking".
The statement PACK to pack is obsolete and can be replaced by MOVE.
If destination is specified as untyped field symbol or as untyped formal parameter and is not flat and not character-type during execution of the statement, then an untreatable exception occurs in Unicode programs. In non-Unicode programs, an exception occurs only with deep types, whereas flat types are treated as character-type types.
Example
After the assignments,char1 and char2 contain the values "123.456" and "0000123456".
DATA: pack TYPE p LENGTH 8 DECIMALS 3 VALUE '123.456',
      char1 TYPE c LENGTH 10,
      char2 TYPE c LENGTH 10.
MOVE   pack TO char1.
UNPACK pack TO char2.

Getting wrong values for decimal value in Bex report

Hi,
 I am getting some problem in Bexreport decimal values.
 In ODS i am able to look the values for this key figure
(Total PO Release Val)= 140.692,00,the same value in Bex report looks like this $ 140,692.00.
 Here one calculation is going with these above values
 % Used = 'Total PO Release Val' / 'Target Value' * 100
 as per ODS value calculation it is correct = 140.692/1000 * 100 =14.692
 as per Bex it is coming like this = 140,692.00/1000 *100 = 142.692.
 in Bex report Percentage valus is not considering value is taking as 140,692.00 rather than 140.692.I mean to say decemal values are ignoring while calculation in Bexreport.can you any please advice me how to comeout of this problem.Appreciate your help.
Regards
Ramesh

 "(Total PO Release Val)= 140.692,00,the same value in Bex report looks like this $ 140,692.00."

How do you check the ODS value? The amount will only have two decimal places after it, so you can't have a value like 140.692,00. It seems to be an issue of user's decimal notation (where decimal is represented by comma, and thousand seperator by '.'). Go to user profile, change this setting (in default tab) to correct one (ie decimal being represented by '.') and login again and check it. The value that you see in ODS is 'one hundred forty thousand six hundred ninety two, the same that you get in Bex, only the representation is different).
