Amount field with dollar symbol?

[srinivas1506]

Hello

I have a AMOUNT field on my_form. Because of good compatibility/data transfer i have defined it as a DECIMAL FIELD 12,3.

Data transfer is btwn my_form and back end system SAP / Oracle. Fine.

But, user want to have the below requirement:

Say, for example, user entered 10000 dollars, once user EXITs that field, adobe will make it formatting (bcz its defined as DECIMAL field) as 10,000. Fine

But, users want to see it as $10,000 (If its USA) if its Europe Euro / local currency symbol as prefix.

Pls. let me know how can achieve my requirement (is it Pattern related or JavaScript will do it)?

Hi,

A display pattern will do it, try num.currency{}.

On the object palette select the display pattern (click the little down arrow on the left of the button)

Then select num.currency()
