Hi,
I use oracle 10g with front end as D2k 9i. We maintain the pension of the government staff. Each pensioners gets monthly pension and a lumpsum amount as gratuity after retirement / death.
While calculating Gratuity any amount withheld due to specific reason will be reduced and final amount authorised.
the calculation for gratuity is mentioned below
L_BAL_GRTY:=NVL(L_DCRG_AMT,:APB_DCRG_AMT)-NVL(:APB_PAID_UPTILL,0);
:ADW.ADW_AMT := CEIL(L_BAL_GRTY*(:ADW.ADW_PERCENT/100));
Here i have one problem. the amount to be withheld is calculated as 10% of the actual gratuity amount subject to a maximum of Rs.10000/-.
While the above code calculates 10% of the Gratuity amount but does not restrict it to Rs.10000/-.
What changes should i have to do to the above code to restrict it to the maximum limit.
Thanks in advance

thanks for the reply.
sorry, i am not very much familiar with the coding in oracle.
i require to modify the code written here
:ADW.ADW_AMT := CEIL(L_BAL_GRTY*(:ADW.ADW_PERCENT/100));
this gives the actual amount without limiting it to 10000/-. Suppose if the GRatuity amount is 150000, then the with held amount should be 150000*10% =15000, restricted to 10000/-. it should restrict the ADW_AMT to 10000/- instead of 15000/-, but if it is less than 10000/- , then the actual amount should be entered.
How do i use the least condition as you had mentioned in the above code.
sorry for the trouble.
thanks once again

Least takes two values, one would be 10000, the other would be the current calculation.
You really can work this one out.
