calculate position for decimal point

Hi experts,

I have 2 fields: value & decimal.

the requirement is that the "value" should have the number of decimal places equal to the value in field "decimal".

eg. if value = 43500 & decimal = 4, then the output should be 4.35,

if value = 1234 & decimal = 2, then output should be 12.34, and so on.

Is there any statement or FM which readily does this kind of conversion?

Regards.

I doubt there is FM like this.

But you can achieve oit easily using simple abap statements.

You can do this simply by declaring two variables, and use them for offset and output.
