Truncation Xlate Error

[April Dunbar]

Good morning,

I keep getting the following error in my log file but am not sure how to correct it.  

“Truncation occurred on decimal part of numeric value .00”

If you see attachment, I am trying to convert weight from kg to Ib.  My conversion works, but I keep getting this error.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, April

April,

If you are comparing number, you should use == instead of eq in your IF action. Other than that, I don’t see anything wrong.

1. Check your variant to see it is setup correctly.

2. This conversion can be easily done with TCL.

Hi Sam and Reggie,

I made the change in the xlate and looked at my variant, but I am still getting the errors.  

How would I perform the multiplication in tcl?

Thanks, April

April,

please post the xlate. As I said earlier, conversion can be done in tcl.

for an instance:

hcitcl>set AA 5

hcitcl>set BB 2.2

hcitcl>set CC [expr $AA * $BB]

hcitcl>puts $CC

11.0

hcitcl>

you woul dbe better off using tcl. Use this skeleton to build your script.

hope this helps.
