No, GenericValue doesn't have that method. It is on the GenericEntity class so it can be shared between GenericValue and GenericPK. And yes, it does exist. I wrote it myself a few months back and just checked it and it is there.
The name, BTW, is not "GetBigDecimal". Following standard Java naming conventions it starts with a lower case letter and is "getBigDecimal".
So, keep looking. The problem is NOT with the code. Chances are your setup is not what you think it is.
