FPM_SEARCH_UIBB saved search for numeric fields

Hello,

I have the following question. I am a tester so I hope I formulate it well. We have web dynpro and we use a search.

There are several fields and lets say, fields a b c d e are numeric ones. It is possible for the user to save his search routine (and to load it again).

If I save something like a = 60, b c d e = blank and load it again I get a = 60 b c d e =0 (or more zero depending on the length of the field). I think that is working as designed, saving a numeric field with space gives you zeros.

But for an user this not so nice. Is there a way to avoid this behaviour?

Thanks,

Jan

Hi

In get_defination parameter ET_FIELD_DESCRIPTION_ATTR set NULL_AS_BLANK as 'X'.

Hello,

thanks a lot. I have spoken with my programming guy, it works. However, if the field is numeric with decimals the parameter does not help.

PS: Got just a call: The parameter you told makes the zeros in the loaded search disappear (GUI, browser). But the programmer told me that in the programm they are still there.

That is not fancy, because you get wrong search results.

Hello,

we have done an upgrade to release 7.40. The programmer told me today that with the new release it works better.
