l
Mathematical operations: Assign the result of any mathematical operation. For
example:22 + 51,3*6,10/5orsourceRecord.property.SubTotal. For more information on
mathematics in JavaScript , see w3Schools - Mathematical Operators. For more
advanced mathematical functions, see w3schools - Math Object.
Note
When adding numbers that are not integers, for instance 4.5 + 1.2 , a round towards zero
rounding is applied after the operation was made. In the previous example, the result, 5.7, is
rounded to 5. In another example, -1.5 - 1 results in -2
Float Data Type
Floats are signed, numeric, floating-point numbers whose value has 15-16 significant digits.
Routinely used for calculations. Note that floats are inherently imprecise: their accuracy varies
according to the number of significant digits being requested.
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 4decimals.Values range from -922 337 203
685 477.5808 to 922 337 203 685 477.5808. This data type is routinely used for financial
