Transferring the negative sign from Right to Left for a currency field.

Hi All,
I am trying to transfer the negative sign in a currency field from right to left but in doing that i am not getting the comma seperators of the currency field.
For eg : If the value is 12,345,678.00- then after converting it i am getting it as
-12345678.00 and i am loosing the commas.
I am trying to transfer the negative sign by first converting the currency field into character field.
Kindly help for the same.
Thanks,
Sharadendu

Hi,
Use FM CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT.
Try this code as well
data: var(10),
length type i.
var = '300-'.
write var.
length = strlen( var ).
length = length - 1.
replace first occurrence of '-' in var+length(1) with ''.
concatenate '-' var into var.
write:/ var.

Hi Darshana,
Before displaying the ALV , check what is the value of that particulat field (in a loop ) and if it is less than 0 , make it positive.
CALACULATION part
LOOP AT itab into wa.
IF wa-val1 < 0 .
wa-val1 = wa-val1 * -1 .
MODIFY itab from wa INDEX sy-tabix .
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Then build the field catalogue and finally display the ALV .
Thanks

Negative sign to change to prefix

dear gurus
please let me know how to change the negative sign to prefix in alv report. ( i.e transcode GRR2=>formating =>report layout => language dependent => debit/credit sign [+/-] ).
Regards
Vijayendran S

hi,
You can use <b>edit_mask</b> to serve your purpose.
You can specify the formatting template as follows:
'V'only with fields of type P or I:
output of leading sign
wa_fieldcat-edit_mask = 'V______'.
Note:
1)If the leading sign is to be output with a field of type P or I, you must specify the wildcard character V at the desired place. If this character does not appear in the template, no leading sign will be output if the value of f is negative.
2)When formatting a field of type P with decimal places, the value is not aligned with a character in the template representing the decimal point (either a period or a comma). If you want to have this character in the output, you must insert it in the correct position in the template and define the formatting from the right. If there is no character for the decimal point in the template, no such character is output.

How to display NEGATIVE sign on the left side of a number in SMARTFORMS

Hi,
     In smartforms I'm trying to print some negative values, but the negative sign is displayed on the right hand side of the number.
How can I display the '-' sign on the left hand side of a number. I tried the logic &value(<), it works well in sap scripts. Why is it not working in smartforms ?
Eg :   I'm getting the output as 126.75 -
         I want : - 126.75

see this wiki which gives details for restrictions of formatting options (I guess you didn't declare the variable correctly, i.e. with the right data element): http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/SAPscript#SAPscript-WhatarethevarioustextformattingoptionsinSAPscript%3F

Negative sign for DMBTR field in ALV output

Hi Experts,
Before posting I have searched for more than 3 hours in the forums to get a solution for this.
I did not get any solution so I am posting this problem which I need to resolve.
I have to display the DMBTR field in ALV output for which a grand total will have to be displayed.
Here for all the values in DMBTR which are negative are getting displayed as '- 6673.56','- 289956.23' as I am using the edit mask 'V_____________.__'.
I have to get the value shown as '-6673.56', '-289956.23'.
I tried to use convert this DMBTR to String and have successfully displayed the negative sign correctly in front of the value but I am not getting the totals which I need to have
PLease check and suggest for a solution.
Regards
Kishore

Hi,
If this is the case, then you can use character field to display the sign on the left. Sum up the total and use the event end of list to display the same. Remember to set the TECH and NO_OUT in the field catalog.
Hope this helps.

Siva

Printing value fields with negative sign??

Hello Experts,
I have developed a interface, which writes the invoice data to application server/unix, this is a notepad. My specifications are as below,
MWSK1(2)   TaxCode                         65     2     KONV-MWSK1
KWERT(13) Condition Value                  67     13   KONV-KWERT
KSTEU(1) Condition Control                80     1     KONV-KSTE
I have to print KWERT value from 67th position until 13 positions, meaning until 80 positions, fine. My code is as below,
MOVE: wa_invoice_price-mwsk1 TO unix_file+64(2).
WRITE: wa_invoice_price-kwert    TO unix_file+66(13) RIGHT-JUSTIFIED.
MOVE: wa_invoice_price-ksteu    TO unix_file+79(1),
So, it printing like below (pls. note 0.04 minus value in right bottom corner)
P26701ZCG620101006C          100.00         0.00USD 1    UGL            0.00A A 9
P60001ZF3520101006C          100.00         0.00USD 1    UGLG          0.04-H B 9
But, business want to have like below (pls. note the DIFFERENCE for 0.04 minus value in right bottom corner),
P26701ZCG620101006C         100.00        0.00USD 1    UGL               0.00   A A 9
P60001ZF3520101006C         100.00         0.00USD 1    UGLG             0.04 - H B 9
meaning, the 13th position should be negative sign (if at all any value does have a negative sign, else its normal)....so, the negative sign should sit on 13th postion. As am using WRITE statement with RIGHT JUSTIFIED am facing thisissue!! as u know we can not send a 'P' type value to unix/apps server, pls. let me know how to get it done?
Thank you

why can't the user live with a leading sign, like '-   0.04'? If possible, do
shift <fieldname> circular up to '-'.
Or, if value is less than zero, set another variable to '-', else set to space, and multiply value with '-1', like:
if <field> < 0.
   lv_sign = '-'.                " neagtive value
<field> = <field> * '-1'. "reverse the sign
else.
lv_sign = space.          "positive value
endif.
then, adjust your field length and insert a sign column or simply add a column for the sign....

Negative Sign displaying as '/' in alv

Method SET_SIGN ofClass CL_SALV_COLUMN is used to set the sign. Method HAS_SIGN is used to check if it is displayed in the output.

On displaying the report using 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' as shown above, when the value of BETRG is a smaller number like say 624, then the ALV output appears as '-            624.00' instead of '-624.00'.
Is there any way that I can remove the space in between the negative sign and the number before displaying the ALV output using 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'?

Hi Deepak,
I tried this and found that this doesn't work in case of currency field. Once you move back the char field (with negative sign to the left and condensed) to the currency field, the negative sign again moves back to the right.
I think that the only way a negative sign can be brought to the left of the currenct field is by using edit_mask of field catalog as I have shown above.

Shayeree.
