Hi all

 

We are scheduling a quick Report

 

When report gets created

 

the fields which suppose to be numbers turn into the format of general. which makes a report quite painful to work with.

 

i tried to convert somehow the number by setting on the debit amount the “to_number” to see if the column E ist getting converted correctly. see below query. 

 

SELECT 
    a.STR_CODE                            AS "Transaktionscode",
    to_char(a.DATE_APPLIED, 'DD.MM.YYYY') AS "DATUM",
    a.EVENT_CODE                          AS "Event",
    a.ACCOUNT_NO                          AS "Konto",
    to_number(SUM(NVL(a.DEBIT_AMOUNT, 0)))           AS "Soll",
    SUM(NVL(a.CREDIT_AMOUNT, 0))          AS "Haben",
    SUM(a.DEBIT_CREDIT_AMOUNT)            AS "Betrag",
    a.CODENO_B                            AS "Kostenstelle",
    a.CODENO_D                            AS "Produktgruppe",
    a.STATUS_CODE                         AS "Status",
    NVL(b.SOURCE_REF1, c.ORDER_NO)        AS "order no"
FROM 
    IFSAPP.MPCCOM_ACCOUNTING a
LEFT JOIN 
    IFSAPP.inventory_transaction_hist b 
   ON a.accounting_id = b.transaction_id
LEFT JOIN 
    IFSAPP.operation_history c
    ON a.accounting_id = c.transaction_id
WHERE a.COMPANY    = '&COMPANY'
AND   NVL(b.SOURCE_REF1, c.ORDER_NO) like NVL('&Order_no%','%')
GROUP BY 
    a.STR_CODE,
    a.DATE_APPLIED,
    a.EVENT_CODE,
    a.ACCOUNT_NO,
    a.STATUS_CODE,
    a.CODENO_B,
    a.CODENO_D, b.source_ref1, c.ORDER_NO
ORDER BY 
    a.DATE_APPLIED, 
    a.EVENT_CODE,
    a.ACCOUNT_NO

 

does anyone has an idea how to make a numeric field numeric in the excel export?
