BDC Issue in passing quantity

Hi,

While passing quantity value in a BDC how to make the value consistent with respect to the decimal notations. For example the BDC is recorded with point as decimal notation. But when the user login defaults has point as the thousand seperator the value that gets passed would be different. Is there any standard way this could be done instead of reading the user defaults and converting the value while passing to BDC?
