Hello,

<b>Please Note That I have not tested your Problem in the instance.</b>

1) ASG_SALARY * (10/100)

or

2) ASG_SALARY * 0.10

Dear Sathish,

I have tested your solution but on verify it is giving same the following error

APP-FF-33002: Syntax error : line 1 position 12
Cause: The formula contains some unexpected text which cannot be verified. The line number and position of the text is given.
Action: Correct the error in the formula and verify again.

Hello,

I have tested you formula in my application it is working properly.
there is no problem in syntex.

try out once again in following way.

Formula Name: test
Type : Oracle Payroll
Formula:

default for salary is 0

inputs are salary

amount = SALARY * 10 /100

return amount

Verify the formula.

If still you find any error, then that could be Application Problem.

Dear!
the syntax of assign value to any variable is that:

variable := variable/value;

new_value := :ASG_SALARY * 10 /100;
or
:ASG_SALARY:=:ASG_SALARY*10/100;

Best of Luck!
