Background documentationRecord Type N2: Non-Merchandise Sale — Extended Length Amount Fields

 

This record format follows the same format as the Type N: Non-Merchandise Sale except the width of the amount fields 15*, 17*, 19*, and 61 can be extended to accommodate currencies using high number denominations. This record type can be generated using the CVTLOG -WX flag where the value of X represents the amount by which the original integer value of the field length (6.2) can be extended. For example, if the value is set to -W3, the amount field lengths will be 9.2 (6.2+3.0). The column length of subsequent fields will also increase accordingly.
