Problem with currency fields

Hi,
My international settings are set to Turkish locale. I created a spreadsheet and defined a column as currency. Turkish currency symbol is YTL. When I want to make calculations using cells on that column, I get "+The operator "*" expects a number but the cell contains string+" error. Numbers doesn't understand that YTL is the currency symbol and prohibits any calculation. If I change the locale to U.S.A, and define the same column as currency, i can make calculations on this column. Does anyone has the same problem with different locale?
Thanks
Bilgehan

Hello
Glad to give you the ability to work flawlessly.
I will report to Apple because the behaviour is really foolish.
If I enter System Prefs to select Turkish as used language, the currency is displayed as
If with this setting I enter Numbers, type 123 and apply the currency format, the cell displays
TRY is the official ISO 4217 symbol but it's not the system setting and it is not treated as a currency symbol so the cell is treated as a string.
If I enter the Inspector and select "livre turque (TL)"
the cell is treated as a number.
Funny isn't it.

  • Problem with Currency Field?

    Hello Friends,
    I have a currency fields in a Screen, When it's value is null, It is showing me as SPACE. But My requirement is to display 0.00. How can I do this? Please do the favour needful.
    Thanks & Regards
    Sathish Kumar.

    Hi Satish,
    You must have declared the field as CHAR locally...
    just declare it like ..
    DATA : var type <some Currency filed from dictionary>
    This will work,

  • Problem with a field set to refresh after insert at Row level

    hello all,
    i have a problem with a field (a serial) which is set by a db trigger at insertion. The field "refresh after insert" is properly set in the Entity and everything is refreshed correctly when i insert data via an adf form in a jspx but when i want to insert programmatically nothing is refreshed. I insert data this way :
    ViewObject insertVO = findViewObject("myView");
    Row newRow = insertVO.createRow();
    newRow.setAttribute("mandatoryAttribute1",value1);
    newRow.setAttribute("mandatoryAttribute2",value2);
    <more init here but not the serial since it will be set by the DB trigger>
    insertVO.insertRow(newRow);
    but when i want to get back the value with "newRow().getAttribute("TheSerial");" i always get a null back and not the value set by the db trigger.
    One way to get the serial is to commit after each insert but i don't want to commit between inserts.
    i've tried to unset the refresh after insert and override the createDef() method to setUseReturningClause(false) as it's is advised in chapter 26.5 of the ADF 4GL dev. guide but in this case i have an exception JBO-29000: JBO-26041.
    How can i get the value back properly ?
    thanks
    -regards

    The data for the newly created row doesn't get inserted into the database until the commit is executed, so the insert trigger isn't called.
    If you need to get the value without committing, then you should implement the trigger programmatically and drop the trigger from the database. The code below shows how you could do this.
    ViewObject insertVO = findViewObject("myView");
    Row newRow = insertVO.createRow();
    SequenceImpl seq = new SequenceImpl("MY_SEQ", insertVO.getDBTransaction());
    Long next = (Long)seq.getData();
    newRow.setAttribute("primaryAttribute", new Number(next));
    ...You will need to replace MY_SEQ and primaryAttribute with the correct values for your example, but this should acheive what you want.

  • Error in smart form with currency  fields

    while i am using with currency fields in samrt forms error is comming in while i am giving print-preview in se38 "<b>Reference field WA_EKPO-NETPR unknown in form."</b>

    In smart forms if we want to display quantity and currency fields. We cannott directly display currency field and quantity fields.
    To display the mdo like this
    Ex: GLOBAL Definitions
    WA_NETPR LIKE EKPO-NETPR
    For that we have to create an extra variable in global definitions
    Ex: netpr FIELD of EKPO
    CREATE program lines and specify WA_NETWR = itab-netpr.
    Close the thread once your question is answered.

  • Problem of currency field in ALV grid

    Hi,
       Actually I am working on ALV gird editables. I have passed the CURR 17,2 type to the i_fcat table. But when I am trying to edit a new value to this field with a new value. i.e. '12345' it takes its value as '123.45'. and whenever I am entering a value '123.45' it gives error message that decimals 0 place. I am not able to make out this problem.
         Even while I am doing get_cell_value, I am getting its returning 0.00 as e_value.
          Any help in this regard will be helpful to me...
    regards,
    Brijesh Patel

    Hi Brijesh,
    Are you using the FM "REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY" to populate field catalogue? if so, define this in your field catalogue for that particular field.
    g_t_fieldcat-CFIELDNAME = 'X'
    where <b>g_t_fieldcat</b> is your custom defined field catalogue. CFIELDNAME here refers to that column in the field catalogue as currency field and SAP automatically adjusts the decimal places.
    Hope this helps and let me know if you need more details.

  • Using SELECT_OPTIONS in Web Dynpro with currency fields

    I have an application where I use SELECT_OPTIONS to gather search parameter values for a query which has amount and currency fields.  In my WDDOINIT, I am calling add_selection_field to add the fields that I wish to use to search.  One of the fields is a currency key and another is the amount.  The query returns the found data in an ALV and each record has its amount formatted correctly based on the currency key field in each record.  This all works as it should.
    However, the search parameter for the amount field is always formatted based on its data type and not on the other search parameter with the currency key.  The currency key field does not allow multiples so it is either present or not (using the default would be fine if the currency key is not specified).  If it is specified, I would like it to format the amount.low and amount.high input fields correctly.
    For example, if I enter 'USD' in the currency key search field and '10' and '20' in the amount from/to fields, respectively, when I press the search button or hit enter, both the amount to/from fields' display changes to '10,00000' and '20,00000', respectively which is the data type definition of CURR19,5.
    I found no documentation on how to handle formatting of currency or quantities in the search fields when using SELECT_OPTIONS.  Has anyone solved this problem?  I looked at all the parameters to the add_selection_field method and cold not find a way to associate the currency key to the amount.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Mark,
    I don't think, it is possible to get the currency key reference for the amount fields in selection screen by using IF_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS.
    I would suggest you the below work around option
         If you do not have the requirement of passing multiple values in either currency key field or amount field, you can go for normal input fields to design your input screen.
    Create a structure with 3 fields , CURR, AMT_LOW, AMT_HIGH
    Use currency reference field in structure with self structure name and CURR field, so that amount fields refer to the same structure's currency key
    Create a node by using this structure and design the input fields from this context node
    Now, the amount fields have the reference of currency key from the structure and it should work fine
    Hope this helps you.

  • Problem with number-fields in csv-Export-Files

    Hello,
    the export with the csv option works fine and our users like this export-function.
    But Unfortunatelly we have some problems with the exported number fields. In my region I defined the field with a format mask.
    On the screen it looks fine but when I change to csv the values are exported as text-values.
    So in excel the columns are shown with left alignment.
    When I try to change the format in excel to number, excel change the column type but not the value inside.
    On this account we cannot use the sum-function and the display of the value is wrong (alignment).
    Which possibilities do I have to resolve that problem?
    Thanks in advance

  • Problem With Currency key

    I have created a ZTABLE- having amount field and currency/qunatity field as WAERS and tcurc as reference table.
    Created a structure where i created zwaers as field and currency and quantity fields as ZWAERS and my structure name as reference table--it worked
    Now the problem is
    When I loading into DSO- I have mapped amount to 0amount  and Zwaers to 0currency- i also had the transforations for DSO and CUbe
    When I tirgger DTP, I am unable to load the  data
    When I checked in the error stact " keyfigure <> 0 not allowd for unit" and my currency field is blank in the Cube.
    I also tried in making the currency key as constant USD which didnt worked
    Please help me out with this

    hi,
    Check the unit associated with the amount field, either it is bringing incorrect value or no value. If amount field is filled and no unit value is coming in the unit field it would give an error like yours. Assign constant to the unit field and then load.
