B777 legs page - building a waypoint
Wanted to build a point 100 nm before 69N060W. That waypoint was L line selected into the scratchpad.
The following were rejected :
69N060W-100
69N060W/-100
I believe - but cannot be 100% sure - that we were more than 100 nm away from 69N060W.
What is the correct format ?
In which manual can I find the correct format ? FCTM ?

If it's like any other Boeing, put the original waypoint in the LEGS page, press the LSK next to the waypoint (so it comes up in the scratchpad) and add "/-10" to the scratchpad and add the waypoint before the original one.
You can also put that wpt into the fix page then put a /100 ring around it. Line select /100 and the scratch pad will give you a new designator for the point where your ring intersects your track. Then put in in the legs page.
