Ravi,

You can use ABS arithmatic operation.

e.g. p_wrntr = ABS( wrbtr ).

in the o/p write p_wrbtr.

The ABS operation always returns the absolute (positive) value of a number.

Hi,

Use <b>'NO-SIGN'</b> when moving to the output...

Hi Ravi ,

Jut loop on your internal table and check if the value is negetive , if the value is negetive multiply with -1 else keep it as it is.

and if you are using the write command use 'NO-SIGN' , it does not display the sign .

Hi,

Use it as:

IT_BSEG-WRBTR = -1 * IT_BSEG-WRBTR.

I myself have used it in my program.

Hope this helps.

Reward if helpful.
