There is a variable with value 19446. Requirement is to
convert it to 194.46. I tried it by doing divide by 100 and
my receiving field data type is 9(03)v99. But the output is
194. I am not getting the decimal value. Could anyone pls
let me know how to get this done?

To make this we require to use redefines.
01 ws-value-change
05 WS-ALPHANUMERIC PIC X(5).
05 WS-NUMERIC REDEFINES WS-ALPHANUMERIC PIC 9(3)
V99.
011 WS-EDITED-NUMERIC PIC 9(3).99.
PROCEDURE DIVISION
MOVE '19446' TO WS-ALPHANUMERIC
MOVE WS-NUMERIC TO WS-EDITED-NUMERIC
DISPLAY WS-EDITED-NUMERIC
STOP RUN
You will get the value as 194.46
