Hi Praveen
Looks like it will not allow dot(.) or comma(,) .
Check this
A numc field will not allow you to post values like '.' or ',' to it. You need to get rid of the decimal point/comma. You can do that by multiplying the value by 100 or 1000... depending on your decimal places. Then it is possible to post that values to a numc field. A numc does allow only the numeric characters from 0 to 9. If this is not what you want (because you are dealing with an characteristic) you need to use a char infoobject or you need to use a keyfigure.
Problem with  conversion char to numc in transference rules
You can change the data type of MENGE like below
result TYPE p LENGTH 8 DECIMALS 3.
