When I am using decimal (packed decimal) fileds..then at the time of
data transformation it shows me the follwoing message:

(0x3000000)Text = 'CPI Converter Input Data Invalid'
(0x3000000)Catalog = 'WMQIv210'
(0x3000000)Severity = 3
(0x3000000)Number = 5505
(0x1000000)Insert = (
(0x3000000)Type = 5
(0x3000000)Text = 'packed decimal, no sign found '
)
(0x1000000)Insert = (
(0x3000000)Type = 14
(0x3000000)Text = '0x63'

I n my MRM I have(CWF tab) I have set Signed to No and Sign Orientation to Not Applicatble. Still I am getting this error.

If this is the field, then WMQI is correct. This is not PD. PD fields always have a sign bit. Maybe it's a single byte binary.

Is this supposed to represent the decimal number '63', or is it '99'.

Cheers,

A 1 byte packed decimal can only represent 1 digit numbers since one nibble is always used to represent the sign.
Therefore decimal 18 cannot be represented in a 1 byte packed decimal.

You would need 2 bytes.

eg. x'018C' would represent +18 and x'018F' unsigned 18 etc.

EddieA is right x'63' is not a valid packed decimal value.

Hence your error.

Packed Decimal is equivilent to COBOL COMP-3.

Please explain the encoding of your decimal.
It is not packed decimal.
