ALV output is 2 decimal places, but prints as 3

Hi,
In my current ABAP program, the output is shown as 2 decimals, using the following domain:
Data Type: QUAN
No. Characters: 13
Decimal Places: 2
Output length: 17
However, during unit testing, it was found that during printing, instead of printing it out as 2 decimals (ex. 12.00,) its printed out as 3 decimals (ex. 12.000.)
The same thing can be noticed when using Print preview. It starts at the editable fields and continues onward to others.
Why is this occurring and what can I do to fix this problem?
Points will be rewarded and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Hi
Check once again the attributes of that Qty field in Dataelement and domain
Because for all QUAN type fields it is always 3 DECIMAL places
you are saying it is 2
check it
All the qty fields in SAP with data type QUAN uses/prints 3 decimals
so check and see
like fields LFIMG.MENGE,FKIMG,KWMENG all fields with 3 decimals

Download amount value without decimal place but element with decimal place

Hi all,
to display the amount without decimal places in classic report, i can use this way which is wa_wrshb NO-ZERO CURRENCY wa__waers.
may i know,
1) how to display amount in ALV where amount value (which using dmshb/wrshb) has no decimal place like JPY?
2) what should i do if i want to download the amount value which field using dmshb or wrshb that the value has no decimal place like JPY?
Thanks

Hello,
You can display the ALV output according to the decimal point in the currency.
When creating the field catlog for the amount field add the currency parameter also.
wa_fieldcat-fieldname     = <amount_field>.
wa_fieldcat-tabname       = <output_table>.
wa_fieldcat-seltext_l     = <column_heading>.
wa_fieldcat-outputlen     = p_olen.
wa_fieldcat-currency      = wa_waers.              " This will work same as CORRENCY wa_waers

How can I stabilize the DAQ output to four decimal places

I have a daq 6009. I sent a optical signal. DAQ provides a output which varies in 3rd decimal place. I done averaging all using a program which I'am attaching with this. So can you please help me in this regard
Attachments:
data acquisition 2 (SubVI).vi ‏71 KB

You need to find a DAQ with a lower Absolute Accuracy.
Also, looking at the spec, you can get a better accuracy with a Differential measurement than you can with a RSE. Apparently the RSE only works in the +-10V range. By changing to a differential, you can get down to a +-1V range. That will help your resolution a little bit. Just wire the ground to the - terminals on the DAQ.
Another issue could be noise in the system.

@ georgemc
Isn't it better to import whole packages instead so
you can have everything available when you call them?
I mean, it's kinda hard to import individual classes
everytime you need to call them.No. You can get conflicts when importing complete packages. If you importjava.awt.*;
java.util.*;and then declareList list;the compiler does not know which List you meant, java.util.List or java.awt.List.

Quantity column display upto 2 decimal places in ALV

I've created an ALV for dynamic columns. For this i've first created the fieldcatalog and then the internal table.
The problem that i'm facing in this is that the user wants the quantity column to be displayed upto 2 decimals. For this i tried the following:
1.)     wa_fldcat-decimals_o = '2'
         wa_fldcat-decimals    = '3'.
         wa_fldcat-datatype     = 'QUAN'.
with this i tried that let the calculation be to 3 decimal places but on output it should show 2 decimal places.
But this doesnot gets reflected on ALV. It still shows 3 decimal places.
eg: 3 decimal places: 16.667 + 16.667 + 66.667 = 100.001
2.)     wa_fldcat-decimals_o = '2'
         wa_fldcat-decimals    = '2'.
         wa_fldcat-datatype     = 'CURR'.
I also tried doing the calculation with 2 decimal places with datatype CURR but with this the last digit gets rounded.
eg: 2 decimal places: 16.67 + 16.67   + 66.67   = 100.01
Now we are taking total as 100 %. So tha calculative total cannot be more than 100.
On seeing 100.001 user says show it to me to 2 decimal places i.e. 100.00
On seeing 100.01 user says how can the total be more than 100 & this is .01 more than 100.
Therefore how can the 1.) option be achieved.
PLZ HELP!

Hi,
Can u check this one
DATA: gv_packed TYPE p DECIMALS 2.
CATCH SYSTEM-EXCEPTIONS conversion_errors = 6.
MOVE char_field TO gv_packed.
ENDCATCH.
IF sy-subrc = 6.
error handling
ENDIF
Try to move ur char field to a type p field. If char field is other than numeric then u will get error that can be handled in try...chatch..endtry block.
data: l_val type p decimals 2.
parameter my_val type char20.
try .
l_val = my_val.
catch cx_root.
Do ur error handling here
endtry.
you can work with search and concatenate.
value1 = 3601152
search value1 for '.' .
if sy-subrc eq 0.
concatenate value1(5) '.' value1(2)+5 into text.
Or value1 = value1 / 100.
endif.
Thanks.

Printing ALV output

Hi All,
Thanks in advance.
I have requirement to have a checkbox on the selection screen to print.
If the check box is checked the report has to print the ALV output with page number
on the printer given on the selection screen .
Can anyone please suggest me how this can be done.
Thnanks,
Gayatri Hemnur

Hi,
I think you are talking about line-size.
... LINE-SIZE col
Effect
Creates a report with col columns per line.
If the LINE-SIZE specification is missing, the line length corresponds to the current screen width. The system field SY-LINSZ contains the current line size for generating lists. The maximum width of a list is 1023 characters. You should keep lists to the minimum possible size to improve useability and performance (recommendation: LINE-SIZE < 132). For very wide lists (LINE-SIZE > 255), you should consult the notes for using LINE-SIZE
greater than 255.
Notes
The specified LINE-SIZE must not appear in quotation marks.
If the you want the report list (i.e. the output) to be printable, do not define a LINE-SIZE with a value greater than 132 because most printers cannot handle wider lists. You cannot print lists wider than 255 characters at all using the standard print functions. To print the contents of the lists, you need to write a special print routine that arranges the data in shorter lines (for example, using the PRINT ON addition in the NEW-PAGE statement.
At the beginning of a new list level, you can set a fixed line width for the level using the ... LINE SIZE addition to the NEW-PAGE statement.
Example
REPORT ZREPNAME LINE-SIZE 132.

Formatting Numeric Only with Variable Decimal Places

Acrobat Pro 9, Windows XP
I'm creating a form that has a number of text box form fields that are to be numeric only per the form requestor. However, for any given field of this type the number of decimal places that can be entered can vary from 0-3 and the requestor does NOT want any unnecessary decimals to appear in the final output (e.g., a "1.2" entry should not appear as "1.200"). The standard number formatting properties always show all the decimal places so I know it's not that route. No calculations will be performed with any of these entries -- the form requestor merely is entering data and then printing it out so that it's legible for the end-user.
I know that the following line of JavaScript in the Custom Keystroke property limits the entry to numeric only, but how should I tweak the syntax to allow a decimal entry:
event.rc = (!event.change || /^\d$/.test(event.change))
I probably also need a script to format for decimal places, but I don't know where to look in the JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference or in the MDN JavaScript Reference.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Good question. To keep it simple (because there are about 300 form fields in this document), if they choose to add extra decimal zeros, then who am I to argue with their entry. So in your example for a given form field, if they enter "1.200" then I expect that they want "1.200" to display.
OK, but earlier you said:
"However, for any given field of this type the number of decimal places that can be entered can vary from 0-3 and the requestor does NOT want any unnecessary decimals to appear in the final output (e.g., a "1.2" entry should not appear as "1.200")."
This seems inconsistent. Can you clarify? The point is the code and where it's placed depends on this. It could be implemented either as a custom Validate or Format script, in addition to a Keystroke script.

How to take float precision to two decimal places?

Hi, everybody:
I'm a straight noob...first week in Java programming. Before you bash me for not checking FAQs and such, believe me, I have.
I have tried BigDecimal movePointLeft, but I don't know how to construct it using proper syntax. I also tried currency and toString but I keep messing up my syntax somehow. Four hours into this and nothing is working.
Here is the problem: I have a float. I want to format its output to two decimal places, trying to achieve in Java what C would produce as:
printf("The amount you owe is $%.2f", fltAnyName);
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob

Sorry, guys. I have tried both recommendations and I can't get either to work. I'm getting a compile error pointing to the delineating period between the "out" and "printf" when I try the C-like code. I have 1.5, too. I know your advice is sound so I must be doing something wrong. Can you insert the code DecimalFormat code that will correct this problem where it needs to go?

ToGB() decimal places

Hi All,
I have this piece of code which outputs the values to a html file.
(get-mailboxdatabase)|foreach-object {
$database= $_.name
$accounts= (get-mailbox -database $_.name).count
$size = (get-mailboxdatabase $_.name -status).databasesize.ToMB()/1024
    add-content $wfile "<tr>"
    add-content $wfile "<td align= 'center'>$database</td>"
    add-content $wfile "<td align= 'center'>$Accounts</td>"
    add-content $wfile "<td align= 'center'>$size</td>"
My issue I can't get the size to output to 2 decimal places it outputs 8 decimal places.
If I use ToGB() instead of ToMB()/1024 I only get the whole number
I have tried using {N0:02} but it doesn't help
What am I doing wrong?
TIA
Andy

How are you applying the format string?
$size = '{0:N2}' -f ((get-mailboxdatabase $_.name -status).databasesize.ToMB()/1024)
[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

Displaying 3 decimal places?

Hi,
I have a bespoke program which picks up lines from bsis and displays them on a screen, the user then selects a few lines and the program posts them using program RFBIBL00.
Currently this program is working perfectly but I have a few countries which work with 3 decimal places instead of 2 and the program isn't picking this up.
I've found that table TCURX holds currencies which have 3 decimal places but I want to know how I change all my internal tables and screen fields to suddenly have 3 decimal places instead of 2? My internal tables and screen fields are all based on fields from BSIS and I have ALV grids and individual screen fields. Do I need to duplicate all of the amount fields, one set to have 2 decimal places and the other to have 3?
Any suggestions welcome.
Gill

OK, I've figured this out.
If you define your screen fields (on the screen not in your data declarations) as CURR not DEC as mine were then you can put in a field as a reference. I defined a new field (not a screen one) which held the currency for the screen. If I define all my currency amount fields with 3 decimal places but refer them all to the currency field then they appear as 2 or 3 decimals places depending on the currency.
Thanks for all your suggestions, they got me thinking on the right track.

Decimal Places in Item Cost must be 6 characters while in Journal Entry 2.

I have the following problem:
Accounting needs to see and work with 2 decimal places, but the item cost is needed in 6 decimals.
If I register a A/P Invoice and i go to the Journal Remark, the Journal Entry should be in 2 decimals. If i look for the Item Cost on the Wharehouse this cost should be in 6 decimals.
Is there a way to handle Accounting in 2 units and Cost in 6 Units
Thank You very much

Hi Saul,
The request appears illogical, how can the accountant work with 2 decimal places & the item valuation is held with 6? The stock account with 2 decimals will never match the stock audit report with 6 decimals.
I'm afraid the SAP Business One core functionality does not cater for this need. There are no 'behind the scenes' journal entries. A JE is legally binding so you need to decide whether you wish to work with the most accurate calculations regarding item cost as possible (6 decimals) or accommodate the accountants & work with 2 decimals in the journals.
You might want to take the nature of the stock into consideration, if there are huge quantities at small individual prices 6 decimals might be better, if you use mainly standard cost &/or have no major cost fluctuations when using MAP/FIFO, 2 decimals might be sufficient.
All the best,
Kerstin
