Hi,

you cannot do that with a quantity field. It has a fixed defines length for the decimals. You have to change the field type in your table to CHAR or STRING and you still have to work with the quantity field.

1) you read the information into QUAN field

2) move the value into the new field

3) control the number of decimals to be displayed either with SHIFT or Offset

4) display the new field in your table.

Hi bhavana.

I think you should post your question in more pertinent forum session.

However, i suggest you to use one of these two settings of the fieldcatalog:

• DECIMALS_O for a field without related currency (otherwise the conversion is automatically applied)

• EDIT_MASK (if you find a standard conversion exit that fits you problem)

here you are a detailed explanation of each available option field:
