How to create field with LEADING sign?

I have a request to create an output file that has any negative signs in a leading position.  Example, value is 100.00- but we want it stored/displayed as -100.00.  Anyone know if there is a FM (could not find one), etc. that does this?  Thanks!

I don't know of any FMs that will do what you want.
There are, however, several ways of doing this using the WRITE command to transfer a number to a character field. This is all you really need, since you say you are filling a field of a structure you will be downloading to an external file.
1) You can try the <b>USING EDIT MASK <mask></b> additions to <b>WRITE</b>.
2) You can use <b>SHIFT <field> CIRCULAR RIGHT</b> to move any sign that exists to the beginning of a character field. This is all the formatting you need to give Excel a negative number it can parse. Other end user programs may require more work to remove the gap between the "-" and the digits of the number.
I've found (2) to be a better approach. Good luck!

    Hi,
    SE38 -> Enter program
    Select Variants button and display. In the next screen, enter a variant name, (If not existing , press Create to create new one), else click on Change.
    Now the selection screen will display with a button "Variant Attributes" at the top.
    Click on that button.
    In the next screen, go to the selection variable column of the date field. Press F4 or drop down and select 'D' for date maintenance.
    In the column "Name of Variable (Input Only Using F4)" press F4 or drop down, select whichever kind of date calculation you want and save the variant.
    Now whenever you run the prgrm with this variant, date will be displayed by default.

  • ** Please help urgently  ** Budget upload field with leading zeros

    We need to load a characteristic that has leading zeros.  For example 0000350.  When saving down to CSV, we lose the leading zeros (0000) so that only 350 is loaded into BW.  Saving the codes as 'text' in excel does not seem to help.
    We cannot therefore see the name for any of these codes when refreshing the workbook in BW.
    Could some please urgently tell us the correct method to save the file for loading into the BW infopackage, with all zeros intact ?
    Regards, Frederick

    Hi Frederick,
    Just some additional thoughts,
    assuming field A1 in Ecel contains 350 and you want to create a string with 8 digits, you could use formula '=text(A1;"00000000")' in an empty column and copy it back to column A. Then 00000350 should be provided in A1. This can be saved in a normal .csv file and be opened with a text editor (e.g. notepad) in order to check content.
    If you don't want to manipulate Excel data, transformation to a field with leading zeros can be easily be processed with a routine in transfer rules.
    Regards
    Joe

  • How to creat javadoc with userdefine methods

    hi
    how to creat javadocs with user define class && methods ....
    we did like that
    javadocs filename..
    we are not geting my oun methods..
    pls help me
    regards
    kedar

    Hi,
    javadoc creates documentation for packages, not for single files - and you have to comment out every class, method, fields in a special form using javadoc tags - an example
    package MyPackage;
    import java.util.Vector;
    * This class is only an example, how to create javadocs for a package.
    public class MyClass extends Object {
    * an example for a public field holding a Vector
    public Vector aVector = new Vector(3,3);
    * Constructs a MyClass instance.
    public MyClass() { super(); }
    * Constructs a MyClass instance using the passed Vector in the {@link aVector} field.
    * @param vec a Vector, that replaces the Vector in field {@link aVector}
    public MyClass(Vector vec) { super(); aVector = vec; }
    * gets the Vector in field {@link aVector}.
    * @return a Vector, held in field {@link aVector}
    public Vector getVector() { return aVector; }
    }// end of classNow you can create your javadoc from the classpath with "javadoc MyPackage"
    hope, this helps

    Hi experts!
    I use ECC 6.0 and CRM 7.0.
    I have to create CRM complaints (ZCLR - CLRP) with reference to ecc billing documents.
    I read the following topics and help:
    1. How to create complaints with referenceto ECC Billing document
    2. Re: How can we transfer billing documents from SAP ERP to CRM 2007?
    3. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm70/helpdata/en/46/029ba32e675c1ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
    Made these settings:
    1. Define the Business object type
    Goto SPRO>CRM>Transaction>Settings for Complaints>Integration>Trnsaction Referencing>Define Object types for Transaction reference
    2. Assign Business Object Types to Transaction Types
    Goto SPRO>CRM>Transaction>Settings for Complaints>Integration>Trnsaction Referencing>Assign Business Object Types to Transaction Types
    3. Implement a BADI - CRM_COPY_BADI_EXTERN.Check Implementation CRM_COPY_BADI_BILLDO for more information on the coding for referencing the ECC Billing document.

    but still do not know,
    1) if I should pre-replicate billing documents into CRM ?
    2) Or, the system uses the RFC to find these documents in ECC to create reference?

  • RV120W- How to create new unique self-signed certificate?

    Hello,
    how to create new unique self-signed certificate on RV120W? I can create request for singning by external CA, but I cannot create new unique self-signed certificate itself. Any idea? Did I miss something? Many thanks!
    Abudef

    So basically RV120W does not support self-signed certificate? It only allows to generate private key and certificate signin request. There is no chance to replace default generic ssl/vpn certifice within router itself? Could you please give me an advice, how to sign that request by some "CA"? I mean no commercial CA, I need something free running under Windows os. Many thanks!

    If you look around the forum for a bit, you will see that there is no notion of file systems on JavaCards (lexdabear posted this information less than two hours ago :-)). To store files, you will have to write an applet to hold byte arrays of the required size and handle receiving and sending of these.
    As for documentation, you should have a look at the GP (General Platform) specification at http://www.globalplatform.org/, which defines communication between smart cards and other devices, as well as Sun's own JavaCard pages (http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/), which contain several useful resources on JavaCards.

  • How to create Vector with reference to Collection

    hello experts,
    can someone let me know how to create vector with reference to Collection interface.
    Collection is an interface. and we cant create an instance of it. i'm not clear of what to pass in that constructor.
    Vector v = new Vector (Collection c);
    what are the possible objects of 'c'
    post some example code please.
    thanks

    Ever heard of reading the javadocs?
    "Collection is an interface. and we cant create an instance of it." - you don't understand interfaces, then.
    // I certainly can create a Collection - here's one
    Collection c = new ArrayList();
    // Now I'll add some Strings to my Collection.
    c.add("foo");
    c.add("bar");
    c.add("baz");
    // Now I'll make a Vector out of it.
    Vector v = new Vector(c);%

  • How to create database with ASM

    HI
    How to create database with ASM?
    I install vmware workstation on window XP .On virtual machine install Linux 5 enterprise (Oracle) install.
    I install oracle DB software only. Also make 3 disk for ASM .
    1 -- When I want to install oracle DB with ASM . In this process candidate disks not show . Why?
    How I can see disks ..
    so I simple install oracle DB software only.
    2 -- Now I want to create database with ASM by DBCA .
    What process I will follow ?
    Please guide me
    Thanks

    Hi
    Steps to create database with ASM.
    1.Install oracle binary with active CRS(For single node installation CRS is activated when you run root.sh) .
    2.Create disk without file ssytem.
    3.Assign disk to raw .
    4.Change owner and permission to raw devices.
    5.Configure ASM manually or USing DBCA.
    Manually ASM Configuration.
    a.Create initialization parameter file and password file.
    b.Mandatory parameter is "instance_type=asm" as per your need configure rest of parameter like db_cache_size,large_pool_size,processes,remote_login_passwordfile,shared_pool_size etc..
    c.To discover disk configure "asm_diskstring=/dev/raw/raw*"
    Using DBCA to configure ASM.
    1.In storage type section choose ASM.It will ask for password of sysdba in 10g.
    2.ASM configuration window will open -> here it create disk group -> it shows all available ASM candidate disk automatical -> choose normal redundancy,external redundancy or high redundancy.
    ASM disk also can be conbfigured with ASMLIB .
    If ASM disk is configured you can start asm instance in nomount state and query to v$asm_disk to see all candidate disk.V$asm_disk only shows disk which is configured in asm_diskstrings.
    Hope this will help U,
