COMPUTE_BCD_OVERFLOW if analysis is correct

64 Views

Hi Expert,

Could you please check if my analysis is correct?

I got a dump error compute_bcd_overflow. This was encountered because a value does not fit in a calculation field. Variable A is too small for the result. It can only acquires up to 14 characters only.

Variable A = Length 11 Decimal 2

The formula used is:

Variable A = Variable B * Variable C * Variable D

Example:

Variable B = 20.0

Variable C = 180000.000

Variable D = 2549.20

By using the formula stated, the value of Variable A is equal to 9177120000.000000 wherein its length value is 17 characters that's why it got a dump error.

Thanks,

CarMey
