AP Check Display check total on all pages

Question

Hi,
I am working on AP check report. I need to display Check total on all pages(in case of overflow invoices). Only for the very first OutboundPayment group the check total is populated under PaymentAmount/Value and for rest of all overflow invoices(OutboundPayment group) this value is 0. I need to display the check amount on all pages. I have created a check_total2 variable to capture the check amount but this variable does not get the check amount on the first page. Now I am trying to use decode to display the check total. But when I use decode function, the values not displaying correctly, it is showing some random number/characters.
Variable defintion - <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'check_total2', PaymentAmount/Value) ?>
Decode Condition - <?xdofx:decode(PaymentAmount/Value,'0',xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'check_total2'),PaymentAmount/Value)?>
Below is the data -
PaymentAmount/Value check_total2 Using Decode Value Expected
105050 NULL NULL 105050
0 105050 709D3D73971C 105050
0 105050 1004 105050
0 105050 1006 105050
0 105050 1008 105050
Any idea what is wrong here and how can I fix this. Please let me know if you need more information.
Regards

BIPuser,
Thanks for your help. My problem has been solved. Below is the code which worked for me(all the credit goes to BIPuser).
Define variable "check_total" at check template level
Defined another variable "display_total" at check stub template level
check_total - <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'check_total', PaymentAmount/Value) ?>
display_total - <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'display_total', xdoxslt:ifelse(PaymentAmount/Value='0', xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'check_total'),PaymentAmount/Value))?>
Now the column where I needed to display the total, I used
USD$<?format-number:xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'display_total');’999G999D99’?>
This solved my problem.
