PM84511: INCONSISTENT BEHAVIOR FOR DATA FORMAT APPLIED ON CALCULATIONS

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• Data format is not applied in summary lines for standalone
  calculations. The data format is defined in Framework Manager
  and is expected to be passed to the summary line, like for every
  other calculation. This is seen with more complex calculations
  like if-then-else.?If the calculation is located within a query
  subject, data format works fine. But this cannot be a
  workaround, as this can create unnecessary SQL overhead.??This
  does not happen if the package is published in Dynamic Query
  Mode.
