Decimal place problems

Dear Gurus,
Greetings.
The issue is 2 days back I noticed that all my values in the Orders are appearing with one decimal place where as we have maintained in 2 decimal places. Like, we maintained 1234.56 but now it is appearing as 12345.6
When we enter a value in VK11 as 1234.56, it is getting populated a s1234.56 in the Order, but all the other values automatically populated are coming in single decimal place.
In IMG under Currencies / Set Decimal Places for Currencies, if I change the setting to 3 decimal places (since 2 decimal places is not available), my values are showing as 123.456.
But when we check at Table level, it is displaying in 2 decimal palces like 1234.56. That means at the Table level, values are almost always correct but at Transaction display time they are not coming in the correct way.
How to correct this?
Regards.

Decimal place problem in smartforms..

Hi All,

Plz help me...

Hi,
I've yet to find any SAP documentation or training material the recommends using the table's own header as the Smartforms work area. I have however found it causing unusual problems in the generated function module.
That said, I've tried reproducing your problem and have not been able to. You could try defining a work area and seeing if that helps.

Problems with decimal places and formatting

Hi , we are having problems with an add on running on different localization companies. Decimal places separatd by "," differ from other localizations. We dont know if this is a SQL collation setting or somethng related to code or requirements to run add ons on different servers and languages.
Any ideas??
Thanks

Problem with transaction CUNI and configuring decimal places

Note: I'm actually an ABAP programmer and do not know almost anything about SAP configuration.
Note2: Sorry if this was posted in the wrong section. I am trying to avoid an ABAP solution so I did not post this in the ABAP section.
Note3: Sorry for cross posting. I'm trying to make this visible to as much experts as possible.
\[Problem\]
I'm tasked to increase the number of decimal places that a certain standard program in MM accepts.
\[ABAP solution I'm trying to avoid\]
The consultants' initial recommendation was to make Z copies of the standard table and the standard programs that references that table. This would be rather dangerous as there is the risk of missing certain parts of the code If I was to replace all occurences of the old standard table with my custom Z table.
\[Standard solution I'm trying to do\]
Now I've read several threads here that makes use of transaction CUNI to adjust decimal places of certain units of measure (see Re: Unit Of Measure problem and change decimal places in PO quantity). However, when I tried it, It does not work the way I expect it to.
In SE11, I created a custom table that has a quantity field (length: 13, decimals: 3) and a unit field (length 3)
In CUNI, I created a new ISO code TST (for test). Then I created a new Unit of measure ZTT (ZTesT) which makes use of my ISO code TST. I set the decimal places to 6.
When I insert data into my custom table, instead of 6, the number of decimal places remain at 3.
Please help in adjusting decimal places without touching the table.

Hello Dzed,
I've read several posts that suggest transaction CUNI to adjust decimal places in standard unit of measures. What I tried is a simplified simulation of what is needed.
In a more realistic sense, consider table VBRP and column FKIMG. What If I want to store items in VBRP and allow 6 decimal places for FKIMG but I am not allowed to modify the table? Is making a Z copy of VBRP the only solution? Or is there a more standard way of doing this?
My worry is that If I copy a table, I also need to copy the programs that use it and modify them accordingly. Our Basis do not want the standard tables touched.

Guys, I have the xcelsius 2008 and can not make it work chart with values % and 2 decimal places. Already set up everything that I know the spreadsheet and graphics.

Hi Anderson,
To get values in % and upto two decimal, follow the below steps:
Go to Chart properties-> Appearences Tab-> Text tab.
Select the "Vertical Axis Labels" and go to the Number format present below in the window.
Change the format to "Percentage" and set decimal places to "2".
This should work.
Please revert incase you have any queries.

Can not change the number of decimal places in the normalization of result

dear all
    i want to see the proportion of some data, for example, the income of May is 300, and the total income is 1000, i need to display it like 33.33% . so i set the
Calculate single values as normalization of result, and then it display 33.333%, i like to display only two number of decimal places, so i set the number of decimal places as 0.00, but i doesn't work, it still display three decimal numbers.
    maybe you say i can use the percentage function like %CT %GT %RT, but i need to allow external access to my query, so the i can not use those functions.
    can somebody helps me ? your advice is appreciated.

hi,thanks for your advice, but that doesn't suit for my problem.
before i set the normalization of result, i can change the decimal values. After that i cann't.
In your thread, someone proposes use the T-code OY04. but this wouldn't help. As i change to other key figure, such as user quantity, when i set normalization of result, it still display 3 decimal values.
i think the point maybe lie in the normalization of result. please advise... thanks...

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

DIsplaying WRBTR (AMOUNT FIELD)WITHOUT DECIMAL PLACES

Dear all,

PO print preview displays incorrect setting in decimal places

Dear Experts
Please help me on the following condition.
I have a problem in print preview of a PO. It displays the incorrect setting for decimal place in currency.
It shows USD 1.404,00 whereby the amount should be USD 1,404.00
This only happens to a certain vendor that is doing PO for the first time from that country
Example:
I'm creating a PO for vendor 123. Vendor 123 is located in country A. No PO has been created for any
vendor in country A before. When I saved my PO, in print preview, the decimal setting is not correct.
But when I'm creating another PO, for vendor 234. Vendor 234 is located in country B. There have been
several POs created for vendors in country B before. When I saved my PO, in print preview, the decimal
setting is correct.
Both vendor 123 and vendor 234 is using currency of USD.
Is there any other setting with the vendor master in regard with the currency decimal setting for each
country for the vendor? Or something that I've missed out?
Diagnosis:
I've checked with the user profiles->default-> decimal notation. It displays 1,234,567.89 correctly
I've also run OY04, but the decimal setting is correct.
Thank you
Regards
Syukri

this has nothing to do with print preview, it is just basic country setting (OY01) how a quantity and value is written on a PO to a vendor is country xyz.
German uses to comma to seperate decimals, while USA uses the point to seperate decimals
this would be the German version 1.404,00, and this the US version:: 1,404.00
so if an American sends a PO to a German vendor, then the document will show 1.404,00 so that the German can understand that he wants 1404. (and not 1000 times less)

Error message when updating decimal places in general settings

Hello together,
I got a big problem with the settings of decimal places.
I know that I am only be able to incerase these but it's a virgin database for a customer with no data imported.
Everytime I want to increase the prices decimal places I get the following error message:
"cannot update while another user is connected to the company"
But I checked all sessions connected to this database. I am the only person that is logged in.
I closed the db more that one time but it doesn't work.
Can you help me please?

Hello Meike,
I have had this problem a while ago and it was caused by the RPD-connection i had made with the customer server.
I had to change the values directly on the client machine.
Hope this also your solution.
Kind regards.

Decimal Places SAP 07

Hi All,
Does anyone know why we cant change Decimal places settings in SAP 07? I am running PL 08. When I try to change the decimal places settings from 6 to 2, I receive an error that says 'Decimal Places cannot be decreased'.
We are able to change this in PLD but my client has a problem with viewing this ridiculous amounts of zeros on the screen as-well.
Please help!

Not possible to do this AFAIK. You can only increase the number of decimal places, not decrease. This should have been explained at the initial system setup.

Error: decimal places not allowed

Hi,
I am entering a PO in currency JPY(Japanese Yen).However when I try to enter a PO with net price for one of the items as say 2.71,it gives error decimal places not allowed.
I have maintained currency rate as 100 local currency=3.1 Yen
It only gives problem while using this currency.
What is the way out ?
Regards,
manOO

Hi,
Check the config of the currency code (OY04), it is probably set to not allow decimal places.
If this is the case, don't change it, simply enter a price of 271 with a price unit of 100, in the PO. This will give you a price of 2.71 for one

Hi,
Please check the user specification maintenance in SU01 t.code and select the Tab of Default and change the Decimal Notation.
