Documentation

Definition

Specifies the value of the field before the update.

Use

This data field has the structure of a field with three places after the decimal point. This ensures that quantities are displayed with the decimal point in the right place. If the data field that has been changed contains a value rather than a quantity, the decimal point is in the wrong place. The third place after the decimal point has to be deleted. The decimal point is then correct for currencies that have two places after the decimal point. For all other currencies, the decimal point has to be moved accordingly.

This indicator is used for internal program control.

Please do not change the entry in this field.
Any changes made could lead to program errors or terminations.
