South America localization with comma decimal points

Hello All:
    I am doing a simple division on a formatted search. However it is south america localization and it has the comma as decimal point instead of period. If I just do value 1 / value 2 it give me error message. if I replace , and then cast to numeric and then divide it works. But put in a trigger by formatted search it comes out as a wrong monetary value. The UDF for the FS is a quantity value. Not monetary!
    How does anyone do normal division and multiple with South America localization?
    Thank you for all the help!

The field itself is actually a UDF of type Quantity. So using the quantity select $[$38.11.0]/$[rdr1.U_myfield]
I suppose for checks you can just divide quantity by price or something! But it doesn't seems to work for me!

Problem with comma and point

Hello,
I have a problem with comma and point in a double-digit.
I use a english driver for HM8142. When I get the values then I only get
int-digits. How can I change "Use comma as separator" . I tried to change
the option in LabVIEW.
I changed it, then I got the window. "To change, restart the programm". I
have done this. But when I have a look at the option, it is not changed.
What can I do?
I am not the admin on the computer.

Hi Martin,
you do not have to change any system settings neither in LabVIEW nor in your windows.
All instrument drivers should use a point as decimal separator. You can overwrite the decimal point handling in the string functions "Scan from string" and "Format into string".
Make a right click on the function and use "Edit Scan String". In the dialog open the ring under "Selected operation", the last entry allows you to set the character for the decimal separator. This separator will be used for all the following floating point numbers.
From your name and problem I think you are located in central europe. I do not have a german version of LV so I cannot tell you how the elements are named in german.

LSMW field with 5 decimal points

Hi All,
I need to pass a field in the LSMW with 5 decimal points.
we cannot pass the data type as "PAC5". can any one suggest how this can be done in LSMW.
Also, I am passing the currency key as USDN in the LSMW using Idoc method. But it is taking only as USD even though the length of the field is 5 chars. But I am able to acheive this if I manually post it as USDN.
please suggest on the above 2 issues.
Helpful answers will definitely be rewarded.
Thanks in Advance,

Working With Prices/Decimal Points

I've recently figured out how to perform calculations on values by assigning them to variables in a click function however I'm working with prices in my app and it seems difficult to get prices/decimal points to claculate properly. At the moment my app looks like this:-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function getTotal():void{
var addon1Int:int = parseInt(addon1.text);
var addon1Float:Number = parseFloat(addon1.text);
var addon1Number:Number = new Number(addon1.text);
var addon2Int:int = parseInt(addon2.text);
var addon2Float:Number = parseFloat(addon2.text);
var addon2Number:Number = new Number(addon2.text);
var addon3Int:int = parseInt(addon3.text);
var addon3Float:Number = parseFloat(addon3.text);
var addon3Number:Number = new Number(addon3.text);
var addon4Int:int = parseInt(addon4.text);
var addon4Float:Number = parseFloat(addon4.text);
var addon4Number:Number = new Number(addon4.text);
var addon5Int:int = parseInt(addon5.text);
var addon5Float:Number = parseFloat(addon5.text);
var addon5Number:Number = new Number(addon5.text);
var quantityNumber:Number = new Number(quantity.value);
total.data = (addon1Number + addon2Number + addon3Number + addon4Number + addon5Number) * (quantityNumber);
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Text id="addon1" text="5.99"/>
<mx:Text id="addon2" text="6.99"/>

<mx:Text id="addon5" text="3.99"/>
<mx:NumericStepper id="quantity"/>
<mx:Button label="Button" click="getTotal();"/>
<mx:Text id="total"/>
</mx:Application>
It works ok if the numbers in the text areas are whole numbers like 8 or 4 but if I use numbers like 02.99, 05.09 the result comes out a bit srange. For example the result of the numbers that I have in there now if I set the value to 2 in the numeric stepper is 61.900000000000006 when I know from using a real calculator it should be 61.9. Is there any way perhaps of rounding this code to the nearest decimal point so it appears as 61.90?
Are there any good tutorials that any of you know of when working with prices/decimal points in flex?

I've managed to find the solution for this - the currency formatter. If anyone's interested or has similar problems her's the code that solves it for me:-

My quantity is showing with a decimal point and two spaces

When people are entering a quantity of 1 it is showing as 1.00. It is confusing my users because they think this is a price. How can I get rid of the decimal point and two spaces?

Hi,
I am not able to reproduce this problem with a number field. Are you using this field as a payment-quantity field?. If so, please check that the Quantity in your payment setting is linked the the right field.
We can do a quick test: create a new form from scratch, add one textfield, then on the field property panel select Type=number.
Select Test tab and click on the Test Web Form button
Enter a number and commit --> check if you get the decimal point and the spaces.
If you still have problem with this, let me know
Thanks,
Lucia

Display unsigned value (battery voltage) = 8134 formatted with a decimal point: 8.134

How can I display an unsigned value such as 8134 with an "implied" decimal point e.g. 8.134 without dividing by 1000? Is there a format code that will do this? I have Student Version 8.2.1. Many thanks

It seems silly to force such an arbitrary restriction. A division is cheap, why son't you want to do it???
Of course you could assign a unit such as V and then set the units to kV for the display.
I would go with the division!

Font size with a decimal point

I've been making a Safety Manual for a company that I am working for and for the past month everything has been going smoothly, for the most part. That is until today. As usual I am changing my font size and it all of the sudden won't let me change the size,
I put my cursur there and it is black and makes a beep (the beep that means you are doing something wrong). Please help me, as I'm on my last 3 pages.
Thanks,
Chantal

Hi,
Was the decimal number created by yourself? If not, please try to paste the number in notepad first, then copy paste the numbers to your document.
You mentioned, everything was fine till today. Was there any changes in your OS or office?
Also do you mind to share me a copy (keep just the decimal part which you can’t change font size) to:
[email protected]? So I can test it from my side. Please use thread link or the subject of this post as mail subject.
Thank you.

Reports with 2 decimal points

Dear Experts
I want to increase the decimal places of INR from 2 Decimal places to 6 Decimal places,But i want the standard SAP reports to come in 2 decimal places for INR even after changing to 6 decimal places.please Give me solution to this request..

Hi,
Actually what others said is right,but u can use the formula round and round it off to Two digits.
Example: Field name F_012
Insert a new field -->select source type -->Formula
and in the empty space Round(F_012,2)......It will give the cost or rate in two decimal places.
But u have to do this in every report.

Comma or point in decimal number

Hi,
I wonder how to handle decimal number input from jsp page with comma or point. Is there a way to take care of this automatic so a comma get parsed to a point or vice versa.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know if it will be a comma or a dot that is inputed. My keyboard uses a comma on the numeric pad but if i change it to a US keyboard it will use dot instead so I can't tell what a user will input. And if I understand everything when java calculates a double it has to be with a dot, or am I completly wrong.
So with this in mind i decided to replace all dots with a comma and then parse it to a double with NumberFormat and do my calculation and then format it with NumberFormat again. This works fine and gives me a nice output if no one tries to input more than one point or comma.
I can't think of another way to do it so if this is completly wrong so please point me in the right direction.

How do I enter data in excel with a specified number of decimal points?

I have several inputs that are being written into excel using the "Write to Spreadsheet file" vi. One of my inputs only writes to excel with 3 decimal points. I would like it to have four, how do I change this?

Pop-up on the top input to the "Write to Spead...." labled "Format".
Chnage it from the default of "%.3f" to "%.4f"

Problems with Illustrator CS6 not accepting stroke weights with decimal points

So I have been using Illustrator for almost 10 years and have never run into this one. When enter a stroke weight on a line with a decimal point like .25 or 4.5 is keeps rounding the number up. For example I enter 0.75 and it makes it 1 point or I enter 5.5 and it makes it 6 point. Whether I enter the number manually or pick from the drop down (0.25, 0.5 or 0.75) it keeps rounding my strokes to even numbers. How did I do and how do I fix it?

Thanks from me too! Was also very frustrated by this.

PDF Forms: problem with keypad "decimal dot" when filling "number" fields

Ok, here's my problem :
I've created a form with fields. My client want to input in those fields amount of money. So I've created fields formatted with the "Number" category. 2 decimals, "1234,56" separator style, not currency symbol. So far, so good!
When testing out the form, here's what happening :
On the computer that I've created the form (iMac, Acrobat Pro and Reader, french canadian keyboard layout and system)
Using the keypad, I can input numbers, with the "decimal point" from the keypad no problem.
But when the client is trying to to the same on his PC (and the same is happening with my PC at home, Acrobat Pro 9.2, french canadian keyboard layout and system), I CAN'T use the "decimal point" keypad key to input numbers (like 43,25). It's just not working (error sound). I can however use the "dot" on the keyboard near the "M" key, but the client don't want to do that.
Why is it working on the Mac, but not on the PC's!?
So far, the only workaround that I've found is to set the "money" fields categories to "none" instead of "number.

It is a little bit tricky, but you might have to add your own formatting handler. You would proceed as follows:
1. Set the Format to "none".
2. Add the following script to a Custom Keystroke event:
if (event.change.length > 0 && event.willCommit == false) {event.change = event.change.replace(/\,/gim, ".") ;
3. Add the following script to a Custom Format event:
event.value = event.value.toString().replace(/\./gim, ",") ;
And that should take care of the situation.
Note that i have not tested the scripts, and there may be a chance for bugs.
The advantage of this solution is that internally, you will have the correct format for a number, so that calculations will be correct.
Hope this can help.

Currency Decimal Points - Urgent

Hi,
I am facing a serious problem with currency decimal points. Unfortunately "Currency code" has been deleted from where we can maintain currency decimal points in OY04 Tcode and the currency code was maintained by zero decimal places. Before deleting the Currency from decimal points the document currency was showing $1000.00 which is correct. But after deleting Currency Code from OY04 Tcode the same amount is showing $100000 by combining decimals.
I have again given same Currency Code in same transaction code. But still it is showing ($100000) the amount by combing the decimals.
Please help me
Thanks

You said someone "unfortunately" deleted an entry from table TCURX. Has that someone seen all the following WARNINGS given by SAP!!!
In a productive system, you must not delete the currencies in use or change the decimal places. This could make amounts in documents already posted incorrect or invalid.
Before you continue, please read the following text carefully. If you do not heed this note, you can cause irreparable damage to the system with this transacton. In the R/3 System tables currency fields are stored as decimal figures with a variable number of decimal places. The decimal point is not stored in the field in the database. Instead, each currency field refers to a currency key field. In this transaction you assign the number of decimal places to this currency key uniquely. Example: If you have set currency USD to have two decimal places and you post an amount of 100 USD, an amount of 10000 USD is stored in the currency field in the database. Not until this amount is processed further or is output does the system use the currency key from the reference field to determine the number of decimal places via this table. In this way the table content can be interpreted correctly for further processing or formatted for output with the correct punctuation. If after posting you changed the number of decimal places for USD, for example, to 3, the existing field content of 10000 would be interpreted for futher processing or output as 10 USD (10.000). This would mean that the contents of tables across the system would, for all currency fields containing an amount in USD, be interpreted incorrectly by 10 per cent. To
change the number of decimal places for a currency already in use, you must convert all the tables in the R/3 System that contain
currency fields, so that the data integrity remains. This cannot, however, for both organizational reasons and under the runtime aspect be carried out in a productive system. The following changes to the TCURX table can thus lead to the loss of data integrity if you
make the changes in a productive system or transport them into a productive system:
o Change to the number of decimal places of an existing currency
o Deletion of an entry from the TCURX table (corresponds to changing the decimal places to the standard value of two decimal places)
o Insertion of an entry in the TCURX (corresponds to changing the standard value of 2 decimal places to a different value), if this is a currency code that already exists Uncritical changes are any made to this table during the Customizing of a new installation or the insertion of TCURX even during operations, if the currency codes have just been entered in the TCURC table using transaction OY03, signifying that no postings to these currency codes can have been carried out yet.
Do you want to change the decimal places despite all recommendations?

Change decimal points in SD Condition type from 2 to 3, for EU

Hello,
We have a slight problem with the amounts. We are using resource related billing in the project and to track some expenses, there are some condition types created. Since the currency is maintained as EU, the decimal places are maintained as 2 decimals in OY04 and we dont want to change that.
We face an issue, when SAP Converts condition value from 3 to 2 decimals
For example, when in Contract we have an Condition Value of 100.025, this is converted to 100.03 and tax is applied on this amount.
When we create an invoice and subsequently a Credit Memo request, that will contain more than one item, and the sum of all items will have to sum up to 100.03, but this is never the case, as with the application of tax rate, the value comes to something like 100.02 or 100.04..
With 3 decimal points, this amount adds upto correct value.
So our ideal solution will be the have the Condition Values as 3 decimals and the Net value in 2 decimals.
Is there something that can be done for this?
Hoping for a quick response.
Regards
Maddy

SAP stores the 3 decimal value in XKOMV-kbetr and Xkomv-kwert is calculated based on this 3 decimal values...
I had a similar scenario with currency conversion and rounding issue in sales Order and Invoice processing, in VOFM routines... so I used a Floating point value and converted to character value and then used that 3 decimal value for calculation.
