Hello everyone,
I'm making a dashboard linked to a NAV database.
Within this NAV database there is setting ocal currency with the corresponding symbol. I have putted this currency symbol in a variable.
Now I want this variable added to the moneyformat in the script.
something like
SET MoneyFormat ='$(vCurrSymbol) & #, ## 0.00; -$(vCurrSymbol) & #, ## 0.00";
Only I do not get the right result. The variable is displayed as text.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much
When you load SaleslineAmount, you can use instead:
dual(CurrencyCodesSymbol & ' ' & num(SaleslineAmount, '#,##0.00', '.' , ','), SaleslineAmount) as SaleslineAmount,
but field CurrencyCodesSymbol should be in the same source table.
Everything works fine. Just correct the last quote.
SET MoneyFormat ='$(vCurrSymbol) & #, ## 0.00; -$(vCurrSymbol) & #, ## 0.00';
Whiteline,
Thanks for your reply.
I tried your example but then I get also the wrong result.
See the screenhot attachment.
Strange. I just changed my MoneyFormat on yours and defined vCurrSymbol in script.
Are you using this expression with $(vCurrSymbol) to make a dynamic text format ?
If so, you have to change the entire MoneyFormat value not just vCurrSymbol.
MoneyFormat is just a string, it seems that QV doesn't recalculate it.
whiteline,
I created the variable vCurrSymbol like this:
LET vCurrSymbol = '=CurrencyCodesSymbol';
I copied your string into my script?
Thx for the help
what is '=CurrencyCodesSymbol' ???
You should use something like this:
SET vCurrSymbol = 'AU';
I added an example how I do it.
Thx again
You can't do it that way.
If you want to change the format of some field depending on value of another field use dual() function.
In this case you can set up text representation and numeric value of your field separately.
Try this expression for sales:
=dual(CurrencyCodesSymbol & ' ' & num(Sum(SaleslineAmount), '#,##0.00', '.' , ','), Sum(SaleslineAmount))
Your solution works.
Thx for that
The onley thing is I have to do this for al the expressions and I have a lot expressions
You can use the same aproach in the load script.
