variable

[kacheek]

hi,

 

i have created a variable as below:

Name: $V{TOTAL_AMT}

Class type: java.math.BigDecimal

Reset type: Report

Increment type: None

Calculation type: Sum

Variable exp: $F{AMT}

 

how can i add 5 to $V{TOTAL_AMT}

eg: $V{TOTAL_AMT} + 5

which gives a result of 'TOTAL_AMT = 18 + 5 = 23'??

[kacheek]

is it possible to do that? where we take the variable value to be added with another number?

pls guide. thanks

[kacheek]

can someone pls pls pls pls help me? :(

or is there another way to solve this issue?

why can't u use the following expression instead of 5 directly.

 

new BigDecimal(Integer.valueOf(5).longValue())

 

 

Thanks,

Santhi
