Answer / rags
we can pass 100 to S9(4) field, S9(4) can store a value
upto 9999.
If the field is S9(4) Comp then it uses 2 bytes
If the field is S9(4) Comp-3, it uses 3 bytes.
This is a Special scenario: here Comp is prefered over comp-
3 due to less space it occupy ( though Comp-3 generally
occupies less space than comp fields)
