Change decimal points

Hi gurus,
My client wants to give( in conditions in the sales order ) the price of a material as 120.123 ( i.e.three numbers after the point ) but the system accepts only two numbers like 120.12.
what are the settings needed to give three decimal points.
regards,
anand.

Dear vas
Go to OY04 and maintain decimals as 3 there.
Thanks

Change decimal point

Hi!
How to change decimal point to '.' or ',' ,and how to do this only for current schema, session or user.
Thanks in advance.

Decimal separator is an NLS setting. By default it is determined by the value of your NLS_TERRITORY but it is easy enough to override...
SQL> SELECT 0.98 FROM dual
2 /
      0.98
       .98
SQL> ALTER SESSION SET NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = ",."
2 /
Session altered.
SQL> SELECT 0.98 FROM dual
2 /
      0.98

Change decimal points in SD Condition type from 2 to 3, for EU

Hello,
We have a slight problem with the amounts. We are using resource related billing in the project and to track some expenses, there are some condition types created. Since the currency is maintained as EU, the decimal places are maintained as 2 decimals in OY04 and we dont want to change that.
We face an issue, when SAP Converts condition value from 3 to 2 decimals
For example, when in Contract we have an Condition Value of 100.025, this is converted to 100.03 and tax is applied on this amount.
When we create an invoice and subsequently a Credit Memo request, that will contain more than one item, and the sum of all items will have to sum up to 100.03, but this is never the case, as with the application of tax rate, the value comes to something like 100.02 or 100.04..
With 3 decimal points, this amount adds upto correct value.
So our ideal solution will be the have the Condition Values as 3 decimals and the Net value in 2 decimals.
Is there something that can be done for this?
Hoping for a quick response.
Regards
Maddy

SAP stores the 3 decimal value in XKOMV-kbetr and Xkomv-kwert is calculated based on this 3 decimal values...
I had a similar scenario with currency conversion and rounding issue in sales Order and Invoice processing, in VOFM routines... so I used a Floating point value and converted to character value and then used that 3 decimal value for calculation.

How to change decimal point in Rotate Tool.

Hi,
I use the rotate tool to design gauges, like clocks, a lot. I hold the ALT button and click on the center of my drawing and then a window pops up to enter in what degree I want my object to be. Currently the decimal point only allows for hundredths, ex. 45.25 degrees. Is there any way to change this to thousandths or even higher, ex. 45.25125? I've attached a screenshot to show you what I mean.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Laura

Laura Belle,
When you enter the full decimal value, that should give you the right rotation whatever the truncated value is.
At least I hope that is still the case in your version.
You may test it as follows:
1) Create a square with W = H = 100;
2) Rotate thrice, each time inserting 33.333333 degrees, then rotate by -100 degrees;
3) Look at the W and H values;
4) Repeat 1) - 3), only with 33.33 degrees and see what you get.
You should get W = H = 100 in 3) and something like 100.017 to 100.018 in 4).

Change decimal point dynamically

Is there a way to change dynamically the decimal point used in numeric control without restarting application?
With decimal point localized, that's work only when restarting the application...
Thanks

Yes, you can by changing the Format string:
Changing it from '%.;%f' will use a dot as decimal sign. If you change the format string into '%,;%f' will use comma.d
You have to do this for every control you want to change, so creating some framework is usefull.

Arithmatic Equation - How to change decimal point ?

Dear all,
I am very new to LabView. I am currently using LabView 7.1 for my project.
I am building a voltmeter reader. (attached is the vi file). The flow should be like, i am reading voltage from I/O card. Then, the voltage value (eq. 10 volt) is changed to percentage (for example 91%). I am using simple arithmatic icon (multiply and division). Then, these value will be written to a file (eq. voltage1.lvm).
The output file is something like this :

Here is one function called "Format into File" that has it. It is located to the top of the VI function block. Other file I/O VI's have it has well. If you right click on the function and select Edit Format String, it will pop up with a dialog box to help you create the format specifier.

Please suggest.

Hello,
I don't think you can bypass the Decimal notation settings against the user in :

Problems with the system decimal point with german regional settings

I have a Labview 6 app that needs deploying to Germany.
My app sends strings over VISA RS232 and GPIB instruments with floating point numbers.
When changing from English to German regional settings, in Windows XP, periods are now interpreted as commas and the app starts truncating my decimal numbers. So in the English Regional Setting when I send 1.234 I get 1.234 but in the German Regional Settings when I send 1.234 I get 1.000.
I have turned off the "Use localized decimal point" in Tools - Options - Front Panel as well as set any function (Frac/Exp String to Number) that has a "Use System Decimal Point" connector to FALSE.
Now here's my problem....
This fixed the issue I was having as long as I am in the development environment, however, once I build the application I still get the truncated numbers. Example: I send 1.234 to an instrument and it sees 1.000.
Again this works fine in the development enviroment, sending 1.234 reads 1.234 with German regional settings.
Any help is appreciated.

You can use a simple function of the "Scan from string" function.
Place "%.;" (Without the quotes) in the scanning string, and this will tell LV to use a decimal point for interpretation. If you place "%,;", this will tell it to use a comma.
You can place this at the beginning of your format string, and it simply tells the parser how to work, it doesn't otherwise produce an output.
Using simply "%;" sets the seperator to the system default (maybe the best idea after the code has been run as the changed decimal point character apparently remains changed otherwise). From the LV help
The following codes control the decimal separator used for numeric output. These codes do not cause any input or output to occur. They change the decimal separator for all further inputs/outputs until the next %; is found.
%,; comma decimal separator
%.; period decimal separator
%; system default separator
Hope this helps
Shane.

In a pages table change the decimal point to a comma

I live in Italy and love it. However, there are issues. One that you might be able to help me with is changing the usual decimal point in a table to a comma. In Italy they use a comma for separating change from dollars instead of the usual decimal point.

I apologize but _*in many countries*_ the usual decimal separator is not the decimal point, it's the comma.

Help, please! I am suddenly being presented with CYMK colors to 2 decimal points. What did I accidentally change and how can I fix it?

This is driving me crazy. I am suddenly being presented with CYMK colors to 2 decimal points. Too much info for me. What did I accidentally change and how can I fix it? I've been through all of the preferences, views etc. I can find but no luck. Thinking this has something to with the color settings (obviously) but with all of the possible options there I could use some help. Thanks, all!

May have been a switch from RGB to CMYK.
Or you moved one of the sliders with shift key pressed.

UCCX scripting change decimal symbol from point to comma

Hi all,
I have an UCCX 7.0 SR5 deployment. I have some HTTP script to which I am passing some variable with the HTTP Contact Info. My scripts are accepting floats only if the decimal symbol used is a point. I would like to change this behaviour so that my scripts could accept floats with a comma instead.
Best Regards,
Hatem Hamdi,

This problem cropped up with the advent of OS X. Prior to that the period (under the 3 on the right hand end of the big keyboard) worked as a decimal point and could produce a point or a comma depending on what language you were working with. Nowadays it doesn't work like that and no amount of fiddling with languages will get it to do things right. So now you either have to use the period (two spaces to the left of M) when entering measurements or else hold down shift when using the decimal period. It's a nuisance and takes a bit of getting used to. Incidentally the decimal period works right in the Calculator but for some reason not in Illustrator. Here in Iceland we use commas for decimals but have to enter periods for Illy measurements.
The trick that I use for converting points to commas and vice versa in balance sheets in annual reports and that sort of thing is this: First step - Use Edit : Find and Replace to select all the commas and change them to some obscure character that is not used elsewhere.
Second step - Select all the periods and change them to commas.
Third step - select all the "obscure characters" and change them to periods.
I haven't found a better way than this 3-step method but any other suggestions are more than welcome.

How do I Change decimal comma for decimal point

Hello,
I have an external USB keyboard and I don't know how do I change the decimal comma for the decimal point.
I already set my region but anyway I can't change the decimal comma for the decimal point.
thanks

Thanks for the link, that help me a lot, because now when I'm in excel or a calculator I hit the point key on the numeric part of my keyboard and I get a point, but when I'm in word, safari or entourage and I hit the point key on the numeric part of my keyboard I get a comma instead a point.
I have a windows Spanish ISO extended keyboard.
Thanks a lot for your help

Dynamic displaying of decimal points for currency field in ALV

Hi,
        In ALV output there is a currency field and displaying data of different countries. It should display decimal point according to the country's currency. But at a time it can display data of different countries.

Hi Dilip,
I think your question is about currencies with different number of digits after decimal point. If you have the currency field in the ALV row, you have to give it's name as currency reference for the value field in the field catalog.
After creating the field catalog, call a form and do something like this (change fielnames accordingly).
<pre>
*&      Form alv_fieldcat_enhance
      Individual Enrichment of field catalog
FORM alv_fieldcat_enhance
CHANGING pt_alv_fieldcat TYPE slis_t_fieldcat_alv.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
    <alv_fieldcat> TYPE slis_fieldcat_alv.
LOOP AT pt_alv_fieldcat ASSIGNING <alv_fieldcat>.
    IF <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname(5) = 'KBETR' OR
       <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname(5) = 'SKBTR' OR
       <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname(5) = 'DMBTR'.
Company code currency
      <alv_fieldcat>-cfieldname = 'BWAER'.
Document Currency for conditions, net value and taxes
    ELSEIF <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname(5) = 'KWERT' OR
            <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname    = 'NETWR' OR
            <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname    = 'NPAX_MWST_AMNT'.
Document Currency
      <alv_fieldcat>-cfieldname = 'WAERK'.
    ENDIF." <alv_fieldcat>-fieldname(5) = 'KBETR' or

Convert the money datatype to a 2 decimal point format.

Whats the best way to convert the money datatype to a 2 decimal point format in ms sql 2005 for use in my applications.
this?
CAST(tr.depositReceivedAmount AS decimal(10 , 2))

I respectfully disagree with the notion that you should change the SQL column from a 'money' data-type to something else.
In most database servers, 'money' is a data type that is designed to provide very consistent behavior with regard to arithmetic accuracy. In Microsoft Access, the representation is a scaled-integer. In MS SQL Server, it is obviously similar. Ditto Oracle and all the others.
You want the money data-type in the database to have this accuracy, because "hell hath no fury like an accountant in search of one lousy penny." The database column storage-formats are designed to satisfy accountants, and that is a Good Thing.
Meanwhile, you also want to take care as to exactly how you deal with the values. There are several points where rounding could take place. You do not have at your disposal the strongest possible handling of floating data-types in ColdFusion. You are also somewhat at the mercy of whatever interface software may lie between you and whatever SQL server you may use. "It's okay to round values once, but not multiple times."
I suggest rounding the value right before display, and stipulating that the user's input must be two decimal places.
Then, you might have to do some things at the SQL server's end. For instance, when you update a value in the table, you may need to use server-side logic to explicitly truncate the value to two decimal-points, so that an update of "$34.56" explicitly updates the column to "$34.5600." (This sort of thing has to happen within the SQL server context.) You know that the user's input has exactly two significant digits, but maybe (maybe not...!) the SQL server might not know this. You want to ensure that the server's internally-stored value represents exactly two significant digits, when the value originates from a user-input.
Don't err on the side of "your convenience" or "what looks good on-screen." (If you do, get ready to get phone-calls from the accountants, always at inopportune hours of the night.)

Can't figure out how to solve the decimal point bug in this calculator code

Hi guys, I'm new in flash and is currently learning how to build a simple calculator with multipliers (plus,minus,multiple,divide,decimal point and change sign) but I'm stuck on the decimal point and change sign.
var multiplier_old:Number = 10;
var multiplier_new:Number = 1;
// .: Sets the multipliers so that new input numbers become decimals of a lower unit column
action_point.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function():void {
          multiplier_old = 1;
          multiplier_new = 0.1;
          point = true;
// Takes intput from the input_ buttons and adds it to the input after applying the multipliers.
// If `point` is true then the multiplier_new is divided by 10, also as described.
function inputNumber(n:Number):void {
          input = input * multiplier_old + n * multiplier_new;
                    if (point) {
                                    multiplier_new *= 0.1;
                   trace(multiplier_new);
          output_txt.text = input.toString();
Decimal point
The problem is that when I input 2.7 in the calculator, it will display the values in output_txt correctly. But then when I input 2.78, it will display 2.780000000000000000000000002. This will also happen to other numbers if the input is too big.
What I want is just 2.78. How do I change the codings to make 2.780000000000000000000000002 become 2.78?
Change sign
Any tips on how to start on this one?
Thanks for your time,
Zainu

I think you misunderstand what I mean. The weird decimal doesnt comes out after I press the 'equals' sign. It comes out when im just pressing on the caculator number buttons
First I click the no.2 button and then the decimal point button.
So the caculation output display will show
2.
after that I press the no.7 button
2.7
and then no.8 button. It appears like
2.7800000000000000002
This is the code I use when the user press the decimal point button.
// .: Sets the multipliers so that new input numbers become decimals of a lower unit column
action_point.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function():void {
          multiplier_old = 1;
          multiplier_new = 0.1;
          point = true;
// Takes intput from the input_ buttons and adds it to the input after applying the multipliers in the method described above.
// If `point` is true then the multiplier_new is divided by 10, also as described.
function inputNumber(n:Number):void {
          input = input * multiplier_old + n * multiplier_new;
                    if (point) {
                             trace(multiplier_new.toFixed(3));
                              multiplier_new *= 0.1;
                              //trace(multiplier_new);
          output_txt.text = input.toString();
I think there is some code wrong in this function that makes this weird problem. I tried putting toFixed method but it's still not working.
Sorry for this long reply but I have to try my bestto explain with my bad english.
