Answer / nagaraj ramammorthy
here the usage clause is DISPLAY which is default. so each
digit takes one byte to store and the sign is punched with
the last digit..
so it will be stored as 1234N.
note:
numbers punched with '+' sign
0 - {
1 - A
2 - B
3 - C
4 - D
5 - E
6 - F
7 - G
8 - H
9 - I
numbers punched with '-' sign
0 - }
1 - J
2 - K
3 - L
4 - M
5 - N
6 - O
7 - P
8 - Q
9 - R
hope this is clear

This is causing the transaction to utilize more storage consupmtion. I am looking to reduce the storage consumption. As part of that initially i thought Dynamic array may solve my problem.
