Numbers Returned from ECC not formatted based on country

52 Views

We have created 2 custom Java web dynpro services for ESS/MSS using ABAP

custom built function modules. Each return a salary (ANSAL field) and

it is always formatted in a US format -- ##,###.## no matter what the

user's profile in TCODE SU3 is set to in ECC. We are using ABAP user

store for EP users. The standard delivered ESS/MSS services seem to

format the numbers correctly based on country code.

The only info I have found on this is:

/people/bharathwaj.ragothaman/blog/2007/03/10/formatting-in-webdynpro-java

which does not make a whole lot of sense, esp since we are using a model which cannot be modified. Also it is unclear where and how the method:

void setR3NormalizingFormattingService (boolean formatting)

is called.

We have also investigated and applied configurations using SAP note 947081, but nothing was resolved.
