Defining Float Values
l
Pre-Processor: Specify the "Type" as "Float" and set a default value as a number with
decimal points, such as 546513.8798463;
l
Extraction: Specify the "Type" as "Float". The field value will be extracted and treated as
a float.
l
JavaScript Expression: Set the desired value to any float value.
Example: record.fields["PreciseTaxSubtotal"] = 27.13465;
Building Float Values
Float values can be the result of direct attribution or mathematical operations just like Integer
values.
Currency Data Types
A signed, numeric, fixed-point 64-bit number with 4decimals.Values range from -922 337 203
685 477.5808 to 922 337 203 685 477.5808. This data type is routinely used for financial
calculations: it is as precise as integers.
Defining Currency Values
l
Pre-Processor: Specify the "Type" as "Currency" and set a default value as a number
with up to 4 decimal points, such as 546513.8798
l
Extraction: Specify the "Type" as "Currency" and configure how the value will be read
from the Source Record (see Extract Step). The field value will be extracted and treated
as a float.
l
JavaScript Expression: Set the desired value to any float value.
Example: record.fields["PreciseTaxSubtotal"] = 27.13465;
While currency values can be set to up to 4 significant digits, only 2 are displayed on screen.
