yes athish,

i am able to store 1 as default value but in debugging i am able to see 0 in that field but i am not to display at execution, but when i declare field as character type

0 is setting as a default value..

As iam deaalring as character type , it is storing alphabets also whereas in my case it should not accept it .

so i am declaring it as numeric data type

Hi Madhavi,

This is the issue with NUMC type field. It will not display zero on the screen. As you want it only numeric field then NUMC not suit your need as it can also store CHAR values. So you better declare it as CHAR field and in the code give error if someone enters CHAR values for that field like below.

IF l_field CA sy-abcde.

ERROR -Only numeric values allowed.

ENDIF.
