Change in Decimal Points with comma

Hi Gurus,
For the result data, we need to change " ," for " . " and viseversa because that is how German follow the format.i have checked the decimal format but that doesnt change this option because at r/3 side it is maintained in same way.
Eg 2,000.00 i need it to be 2.000,00
help me please...
Thanks in Advance..
Rennie

One place I know of is you change that in user maintenance..Tcode SU01 -- type in User ID -- Defaults tab
Or
From Menu -- System -- User Profile -- Own Data
For the change to take efffect user must log off and log back in

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.

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.

Using Decimal Points with Quantity in 11i

We are in apps 11.0.3 and going to migrate into 11i.
While making Returns to Vendor we cannot use decimal points in the place of quantity and we have to complete the transaction same as transaction completed in the PO receipt.
For ex: If I have case as following what is the solution in 11i?
PO Receipt for Item AAA quantity 100 Metric Ton
And due to some cases I have to return it 49.5m Metric Ton
In apps 11.0.3 I can make Returns with integer quantity only, but how I can manage this case in 11i?
null

In IP 5.0 Patchset I you can receive and return with decimal quantities.

Change Decimal point to comma: N.NNN,NN

Hello,
I want to display a curr value in this format N.NNN,NN no matter what the user setting is.. It shud always print like this.
I have checked this frm USR01-DCPFM, but not able to do it correctly.
IF USR01-DCPFM eq 'X'.
REPLACE ',' WITH '.' INTO l_amt.
ENDIF.
But it doesnt work.
Scenario could be:
Input - 1000.00 OR
Input - 1,000.00 OR
Input - 1,000.00 OR
Input - 1.000,00
Output shud be - 1.000,00
Please suggest.

Hello,
I don't think you can bypass the Decimal notation settings against the user in :
SU01->Defaults->Decimal notation.
Cheers,
Remi

Display Decimal point to comma: N.NNN,NN

I want to display any value in this format : N.NNN,NN WHICH SHOULD BE INDEPENDENT OF USER SETTING PARAMETERS(Decimal Notation).
This is my 3rd post regarding same...In earlier nobody clarified.
Please guide.
Thanks a million..
Edited by: Gaurav Kumawat on May 26, 2009 4:57 PM

It is possible to find the current number format by querying table USR01. DCPFM holds the relevant indicator. Null means number format is 1.234.567,89, 'X' means the format is set to 1,234,567.89, 'Y' indicates 1 234 567,89.
The logic could then be something like this:
CASE USR01-DCPFM.
WHEN 'X'.
replace ',' in num with '?'.
replace '.' in num with ','.
replace '?' in num with '.'
WHEN 'Y'.
replace space with '.' in num.
WHEN OTHER.
do nothing as the number will already be in the required format.
ENDCASE.

Comma and Decimal point

Hi Gurus,
I am encountering a problem regarding printout of our SOA
Instead of the standard format of the total value (comma then decimal point (ex. 2,559.62)) output is (decimal point then comma(ex. 2.559,62)). This always happens to a particular customer only. What should I do?
Regards,
Jay

Hi,
The decimal notation of numbers in Visual Composer is based on the Locale as set in the Portal
(User Administration -> select user (or group) -> Language)
if language is not set, it's based on IE language, and afterwards on the OS language.
therefore, setting a number field formatting to "LOCALE_NUM" or checking the "Local Format" checkbox in the field's formatting tab, will cause the runtime to format the number according to the above.
Your customer is probably currently on a non US locale.
Best Regards,

Windows Service - While converting into decimal its takes comma instead of decimal point

Hi,
We are converting hex value into decimal in windows service application , its working fine in almost all PC's except one.
When we are using same code/windows service in French PC, while converting hex value into decimal its going wrong ( Ex : 1256,8904 instead of 1256.8904 ) that's is instead of decimal point takes comma. We executed same code in sample win
form on same PC its working fine.
actual value is "1256.8904" but its converting into "1256,8904". Can you please give me some idea how to resolve this.

Change of decimal separator

Is it possible to change the decimal separator for importing data?
I have data with , as separator can I change the default Point to comma?
Thanks for your interest
Thomas Pfeiffer
Message Edited by Thomasrp on 02-16-2006 10:10 AM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I really don't understand your problem, because normally DIAdem can import both types of decimal separators... If you use the ASCII Import the important is that you use the proper configuration for your file type… and if this file uses the comma as a decimal separator, the delimiter character between data will not be a comma… DIAdem should import the data with no problem, but on DIAdem you will see always the "." (dot)
If your problem is that on the DIAdem View you want to see the "," comma you can do the following:
- Right mouse click, and select "Table Settings"
- Change the numeric format, for example "dd,ddd" then you will see only 3 decimal places and the decimal separator will be the comma.
Hope this helps you,
Marc.

Query about decimal point field in mapping

hi,
In interface one field is supposed , Both dollars and cents will be formatted with an implied decimal point before the last two digits in the data.
for exm : input is -620.27. then output should be -000062027. Maximum length of the field is 10.
if input is 44.44.then output should be 0000004444.
In this way.
Name of the field is Pay_Amount.
how do i get this mapping?
Regards,
Sanghamitra

Use the replace string function to replace decimal point with null. Then pass the value to a udf.
Write a udf (value cached) and pass the input a= value from Pay_Amount and b - required length of field (10)
public String AddLeading(String a,String b,Container container){
String temp = new String(String.valueOf(Integer.parseInt(a)));
int temp1 = Integer.parseInt(b);
for(int i = 0; (temp1 - a.length()) > i ; i++)
temp = "0" + temp;
return(temp);

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.

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.

South America localization with comma decimal points

Hello All:
    I am doing a simple division on a formatted search. However it is south america localization and it has the comma as decimal point instead of period. If I just do value 1 / value 2 it give me error message. if I replace , and then cast to numeric and then divide it works. But put in a trigger by formatted search it comes out as a wrong monetary value. The UDF for the FS is a quantity value. Not monetary!
    How does anyone do normal division and multiple with South America localization?
    Thank you for all the help!

The field itself is actually a UDF of type Quantity. So using the quantity select $[$38.11.0]/$[rdr1.U_myfield]
I suppose for checks you can just divide quantity by price or something! But it doesn't seems to work for me!

How do I Change decimal comma for decimal point

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 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
