Invalid format for Marketing Attributes

Question

Hi colleagues,
I have marketing attributes of type NUM 5,2 which are causing erros of type Invalid Format.
I would like to know where do I change this configuration (path in SPRO/Cutomizing Implementation Guide) in CRM.
And If someone knows what type generally is used... it seems strange that standard validation is not accepting this...
thanks,

Answer 1

Can you please let me know what is this 5,2? Is this a value for the attribute?
In the Attributes table, you can only mention the decimal place and in the value table you have to maintain the exact number of decimal places as you mentioned in the attributes.
e.g.
if you create an attribute say "Frequency of Purchases", Format - Numeric Format, Decimal Places - 2, In that case, you have to maintain a values like 35,02 or 34,00 or 37,59 etc.
If you want to change the decimal separator say "," to ".", you can do it in CRM system, as follows
-login to CRM system using sapgui command
-login with your credentials
-go to system->user profile-> own data or you can directly use the transaction SU3
-go to tab "Default" -> change the field "Decimal Notation" as per your liking.
For this you must have an authorization to change your data or ask your administrator to change the same.
Hope this helps.
