Division of packed numbers giving 0 as result .

Question

I have a requirement where i need to divide a workarea element of type CURR with that of DATA Type DEC
My problem is that it is returning result as 0 on division, Point to be noted is that the report has its fixed point arithmetic checkbox as unchecked in Program attribute (it is a SAP Standard Report). I have also tried with field symbols taking type as packed but still the result is 0.
TABLES : ZFI_CurrencyConv.
Data: l_data2 type zdec,    "i.e. 9 length and 5 decimal places
          l_data1   type zdec.
SELECT  Single * FROM zfi_currencyconv
           WHERE company_code = reguh-zbukr
           AND date_from LE reguh-laufd
           AND date_to GE reguh-laufd.
  IF sy-subrc = 0.
        l_data1  =  REGUH-RBETR        "CURR length 12 & 2 decimal places
      l_data2   = ZFI_CurrencyConv-FIXED_EXCHG_RATE
     l_data2 = l_data1 / l_data2.
       REGUH-RBETR = l_data2 .
  ENDIF.
Here ZFI_CurrencyConv-FIXED_EXCHG_RATE is of type Zdec only  (9 length and 5 decimal places)
       RGUH-RBETR  is of type CURR length 12 decimal 2 places.

Answer 1

Hi,
I don't know why it gave you 0.5 check the below code it will give you 50.
DATA: menge LIKE ekpo-menge,
      netwr LIKE ekpo-netwr,
      amnt LIKE ekpo-netwr.
menge = 10.
netwr = 500.
amnt = netwr / menge.
WRITE amnt.
if you are using this in bapi pricing conditions then have to adjust it accordingly
