Hi Gaurav,

Have u checked the user settings ?? as ouput also depends upon user settings.

if not then check them once and in the driver program u can define a variable like A1(20) type char.

and then

if its item level quantity, in the loop

write : itab-quantity to a1 unit 'KG'.

and then call this variable a1 in the script.

I think this might solve ur problem.

Hi Gaurav,

Prior to display, write it to a variable of type QUAN/CURR. This will solve your problem automatically.

sorry all,

it was sapscript not smartforms....

and i assigned that variable to quan variable but no commas came..

[nivin_varkey]

it can be done in two ways:

1. create a structure with fields for MENGE (Quantity) and MEINS (UoM), where MENGE has reference to MEINS. once you use the MENGE field in the text element it automatically handles decimals and commas.

2. write the menge field to a CHAR variable with unit and use that character variable in the text element.

Hope this solves your problem
