Sets or gets the decimal notation used by the document.
Syntax:
object.DecimalNotation = <sNotation>
<sNotation> = object.DecimalNotation
Controlling Agency:
EDIFACT
Remarks
The DecimalNotation property specifies the string or character to be used for the decimal notation. By default, the period (.) is used.
UN/EDIFACT
– If the decimal notation is not specified, then the period (or full stop)
is used as default.However, if
a UNA service segment is specified, then the decimal notation specified in
the UNA segment will be used instead.Also,
if syntax levels are defined and the document references one of the
predefined syntax level then the decimal notation defined in the syntax
level will be used.If
auto-detect is disabled, the decimal notation in the UNA service segment or
in the defined syntax level will not be used, but the document will use
either the decimal notation that was explicitly set, or use the default value.
ASC/X12 – This is not in the specification but can be applied
similarly as it is applied for UN/EDIFACT.
