Arithmetic operator

Can't you use all Arithmetic operators with characters?

What would the value be of doing this, evenassuming
you can?it's easy:
2 * '.' == ':'
't' - '-' == l
'~' + 'o' == � (that's õ in
html)
'p' ^ -1 == 'd'
sqrt('A') == 'a'
and so on...And if code were written like that, it would be time to get a rope to have a hangin' for the coder...

Hi,
There can be some problem with tolerances set in the customizing.
In my case, I was getting this error because of delivery date variance. The difference between delivery date maintained in PO and invoice date was huge and hence the multiplication of price of PO and difference of delivery date was huge and that was the reason for error.
Similarly in your case also, there will be some tolerance limit problem.
Please check your tolerance limits set in customizing.

ODBC BI Server Bug - arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow

I am trying to write some really simple .NET code access the Oracle BI Server ODBC driver and it's not working at all. I've connected fine, however it seems like anything I try to do related to getting database information spits up an error "arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow".
Here is the code:
Dim ConnectString As String
Dim FactoryType As String
Dim Factory As System.Data.Common.DbProviderFactory
Dim Connection As System.Data.Common.DbConnection = Nothing
Dim TablesData As System.Data.DataTable = Nothing
Dim err As String = ""
Dim nl As String = Chr(13) + Chr(10)
Try
    ' Connect to the database via ODBC
    ConnectString = "DSN=BSODBC_7;uid=TheUser10;pwd=************"
    FactoryType = "System.Data.Odbc"
    Factory = System.Data.Common.DbProviderFactories.GetFactory(FactoryType)
    Connection = Factory.CreateConnection
    Connection.ConnectionString = ConnectString
    Connection.Open()
    ' Request a list of tables from the database
    ' ** Tried both with restrictions and without
    ' ERROR on this line:
    ' “Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.”
    TablesData = Connection.GetSchema("Tables")
    ' Show the list of tables on the screen in a grid
    ' If it was successful.
    OnScreenGrid.AutoGenerateColumns = True
    OnScreenGrid.DataSource = TablesData
Catch ex As Exception
    ' Report the error
    err = ex.Message
    If Not (ex.InnerException Is Nothing) Then
        If Not (ex.InnerException.Message Is Nothing) Then
            err = err + nl + nl + ex.InnerException.Message
        End If
    End If
    MsgBox(err, MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly + MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, "Error")
Finally
    ' Clean up and Close the DB Connection
    If Not (Connection Is Nothing) Then
        Connection.Close()
        Connection.Dispose()
        Connection = Nothing
    End If
End Try
Any Thoughts? Is this a known bug? Is there a fix?

I doubt on line
OnScreenGrid.DataSource = TablesData
instead of array as TablesData try to take List object and assign it to OnScreenGrid.DataSource
just in case check this
DataGridView.AutoGenerateColumns Property (System.Windows.Forms)
I might be wrong but just check it

Overflow for arithmetical operation (type P) in program.

Hi experts..
I had developed a report for showing total receipt and issues and confirmed issue.
of PQ.
For all the plant is running fine but only for one plant 2050 its going into dump and error is "Overflow for arithmetical operation (type P) in program." and the code line is
T_EKET-MNG02 = T_EKET-MNG02 * ( t_mdbs-umrez / t_mdbs-umren ).
MNG02 IS OF TYPE Data : "Quan", length =13 , decimal = 3.
initially : value in Mng02 is = 10 and ratio is 11/8 = 1.375
and in the debugging the value is 10*1.375 = 13.75
but... when i am executing it .. its going into dump and after again checking the MNG02 is showing valude --9765133613.881 and the above error.
what should i do....
please help..
i will award the points for every help...
thanks

Hi,
Are you doing any other calculation for field MNG02 in your program?
I created a small program with the field and values you have mentioned and it gave me the result 13.75 and no short dump.
Please check following things:
When short dump occurs, it shows at which line it has occured. Is it showing that the shortdump has occurs on the line you are talking about here or it is somewhere else.
Also, when shortdump occurs, it shows a "debugging" button at the top. Hit that button and it will show you exactly where the short dump has occured. What ever this statement is, check what are the values of different variables here.
Check all these and you might get the answer. Let me know if you still have problem.

Power query from ODBC :"DataSource.Error: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow"

Good day
Everytime I want to pull data into a query from our servers it gives the error "DataSource.Error: Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow". What is the reason for this error, and how do I get past this bump.
Thanks in advance

Hey Tristan. Thanks I did that yes.
For some reason my direct MySQL connection does not want to work.
I get the following error

Overflow during the arithmetical operation (type P) in program "SAPLHRPT

Hi,
I am currently facing an issue in payroll posting to accounting in international payroll.A run time error "Overflow during the arithmetical operation (type P) in program "SAPLHRPT" occurs. By reducing the amounts on the balance sheet side payroll posting document is created.

Hi Asad,
Does you guys enhancemented this program? I think if it`s standard code, it should give you a error message inform you "amount is too large" or something.
So double click this dump log, to check whether it is a custom code, if yes, to add "TRY CATCH" and give out a message.

Please give me the solution with detail decsription.How to solve with step by step.

Hi,
Instead of directly assigning the value to xkomv-kbetr. Store the value in a temporary variable of type p length 13 decimals 2 . Multiply by 10^n to get the correct result.
Then assign the temp value to xkomv-kbetr.
Sample Code
DATA : lv_temp TYPE P length 13 decimals 2.
lv_temp = ( xkwert * 10^n ) / komp-mgame.
Then assign lv_temp to xkomv-kbetr.
To get proper value, you have to multiply or divide by 10^n .

VEctor: Problem in arithmetical operation

The problem with the following code is that when an element is accessed with v.elementAt() the compilation is OK. But if I try to do some arithmetic operation on the element, it won't compile, giving the message -
VectorDemo.java:36: operator * cannot be applied to java.lang.Object, int
System.out.println("Result: "+v.elementAt(3)*2);
Is it because of <Object> type declaration of Vector? If so how to do arithmetic operation with an element of a vector which may have Double, Float or Integer type of elements in the same vector?
import java.util.*;
class VectorDemo
 public static void main(String args[])
 Vector<Object> v=new Vector<Object>(3,2);
 System.out.println("Initial size: "+v.size());
 System.out.println("Initial capacity: "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Integer(1));
 v.addElement(new Integer(2));
 v.addElement(new Integer(3));
 v.addElement(new Integer(4));
 System.out.println("Capacity after four additions: "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Double(5.45));
 System.out.println("Current capacity : "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Double(6.08));
 v.addElement(new Integer(7));
 System.out.println("Current capacity : "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Float(9.4));
 v.addElement(new Integer(10));
 System.out.println("Current capacity : "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Integer(11));
 v.addElement(new Integer(12));
 System.out.println("First element : "+v.firstElement());
 System.out.println("Last element : "+v.lastElement());
 System.out.println("Find Result: "+v.elementAt(3)); //<------ if replaced with:
 //System.out.println("Find Result: "+v.elementAt(3)*2);
 if(v.contains(new Integer(3)))
 System.out.println("Vector contains 3.");
 Enumeration vEnum=v.elements();
 System.out.println("\nElements in vector: ");
 while(vEnum.hasMoreElements())
 System.out.println(vEnum.nextElement()+" ");
 System.out.println();
}

Here's the correct code.
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.Number;
class VectorDemo
 public static void main(String args[])
 //initial size is 3, increment is 2
 String s;
 int i=0;
 Vector<Number> v=new Vector<Number>(3,2);
 System.out.println("Initial size: "+v.size());
 System.out.println("Initial capacity: "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Integer(1));
 v.addElement(new Integer(2));
 v.addElement(new Integer(3));
 v.addElement(new Integer(4));
 System.out.println("Capacity after four additions: "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Double(5.45));
 System.out.println("Current capacity : "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Double(6.08));
 v.addElement(new Integer(7));
 System.out.println("Current capacity : "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Float(9.4));
 v.addElement(new Integer(10));
 System.out.println("Current capacity : "+v.capacity());
 v.addElement(new Integer(11));
 v.addElement(new Integer(12));
 System.out.println("First element : "+v.firstElement());
 System.out.println("Last element : "+v.lastElement());
 System.out.println("Result: "+Integer.parseInt(v.elementAt(3).toString())*2);
 if(v.contains(new Integer(3)))
 System.out.println("Vector contains 3.");
 //enumerate the elements in the vector.
 Enumeration vEnum=v.elements();
 System.out.println("\nElements in vector: ");
 while(vEnum.hasMoreElements())
 System.out.println(vEnum.nextElement()+" ");
 System.out.println();
}

Arithmetic operations using Picklist field values

Hi,
I tried to multiply a picklist field value as below and wanted to store the result in a field (datatype = Integer or Number) using a workflow which triggers based on the Trigger Event "Before modified record saved".
Criticality = [<plFrequency_of_Occurrence_ITAG>] * 10
It throws an error:
"Update Criticality : Value too long for field 'ZNum_0' (maximum size 16). (SBL-DAT-00235)(SBL-ODS-00500)"
Can't we do arithmetic operations on the Picklist fields? I believe this is because the values are being stored as text??
Do we have a function to convert the character field to numeric before we perform any arithmetic operations?
Thanks,
Sriram

Hi,
You're right, you can't perform arithmetic operations with a number and a text. That's why you get the error.
Today, there's no function you can use to convert a text to a number.
You'll need to create a SR asking for a Change Request.

Max

[nQSError: 22023] An arithmetic operation is being carried out on a non-num

Hi All,
I have created a logical column for rolling period based on a measure. I have used newly created rolling period column to create another column. I have checked the global consistency there were no errors in rpd. I have uploaded the rpd, when I was trying to expand that table in Answers it is giving an error *"State: HY000. Code: 10058.

[nQSError: 22023] An arithmetic operation is being carried out on a non-numeric type. (HY000)"*
The base measure has aggregation rule. Please help to find resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Rolling Amount- "PeriodRolling("Core"."Fact - Sales - Orders"."Order Amount" , -10, 0)"

I have created above two measures.
Expand table means we need click on + symbol besides the table name to select columns, it is not allowing me to click on that + sysmbol.

Process chain error:Error in an arithmetic operation in record

Hi friends ,
Plz help me ehow to solve the error: Error in an arithmetic operation in record in process chains when loading IP.
Error in error messages s:
Record 1927 :Contents 1100.00 J from field PSWBT cannot be converted in type CURR -
Record 1927 :Contents 0.00 0 from field BDIF2 cannot be converted in type CURR
Record 1927 :Contents 0.00 0 from field FDWBT cannot be converted in type CURR -
what can i do ?
regards ,
Pavan

Hi pawan,
If you are loading data thru PSA, correct these values in the PSA and reload it again. Best solution would be to correct it in the source system also. If you see the record 1927 in your case has following values for the fields.
PSWBT - 1100.00 J
BDIF - 0.00 0
FDWBT - 0.00 0
You can see the spaces in between as well as the character 'J'.
Hence it is giving you this error.
Correct it in PSA and reload it.
it will go fine...
Regards.

Using Modulus (%) arithmetic operator with decimals

When trying to use the arithmetic operator modulus with decimals there seem to be some errors in the results. Is there a restriction on the number/value of decimals that can be used with this operator? Am I perhaps just using it incorrectly?
example ...
Double valA= new Double("12.4");
Double valB = new Double("1236");
double result = valB.floatValue() % valA.floatValue();
System.out.println("valB : " + valB );
System.out.println("valA: " + valA);
System.out.println("result : " + result);
produces :
valB : 1236.0
valA : 12.4
result : 8.40003776550293
But :
Double valA= new Double("12.5");
Double valB = new Double("1236");
double result = valB.floatValue() % valA.floatValue();
System.out.println("valB : " + valB );
System.out.println("valA: " + valA);
System.out.println("result : " + result);
produces :
valB : 1236.0
valA : 12.5
result : 11.0

Floating point arithmetic in general is not exact. The problem is that you are expecting exact results.
In the second example where you use 12.5 and 1236.0 is just so happens that both of those numbers can be represented exactly, so you do get an exact result.

Error in arithmetic operation

All,
I have the error when loading my data, "error in arithmetic operation".
I am trying to load e.g.:
20030412101100 in a DATS field.
My question:
How can I remove the 6 digits from the right in my transferstructure?
Please guide in steps if possible,
Many thanks!

Hi dear,
You can also try SUBSTRING:
Cut out part of a character string.
Parameters
SUBSTRING( <character string>, <offset>, <length> )
Result
Part of a character string
Example
SUBSTRING( 'ABCD', 0, 3 ) = 'ABC'
SUBSTRING( 'ABCD', 2, 2 ) = 'CD'

Evaluating a Character as a arithmetic operator

I have two double values as variables call them val1 and val2. I also have a character value call it char1 that is an arithmetic operator '+' for example.
How would I go about making this expression get evaluated from those variables? obviously using val1 char1 val2 doesn't work.

I guess I needed to explain better why I wanted to be able to take two doubles and then go val1 char val2 where the char holds the operator.
It's more than just 4 lines because what happens is i'm already under the case of +,-,/,* from a comparison and then i'm looking at another operator off of a stack, so that I can peform the argument operation in the right order. So thats another 4 comparisons plus the code I want to execture for each of the operators. So if I do it that way its 4 original comparison for finding which of the operators it is and then X 4 comparisons for the 4 different cases under each one found... plus the actual code beyond the comparisons.
I assume there is no way to evaluate a char as an operator.. or convert into something where it can be?

Error in arithmetic operation in record

Hi all
when I'm loading from flat file i'm getting the following error
"Error in arithmetic operation in record"
Also one more error is
"Error 8" error
Pl reply with solution asap
Thanks and Regards
Shyam

Hi Shyam,
Delete Infosource - Source system assignment (with PSA tables etc.).
Then save (activate) the Infosource (communication structure).
Then assign source system, create infopackage and load data again.
Should work fine then.
