Set up output formats
Application task

If you use fields with numerical values in the placeholders of a template, by default, the numbers are added to a document with two decimals. You can use the output formatting to define the number of decimals. 

Prerequisites to apply output formatting are:
  • You can only use output formatting for fields with an extended data type and which are of type Real.
  • The field, to which the extended data type belongs, must be in the applicable query.
  • The field must be added as table field to a placeholder in the applicable template.
Output formatting is applied generically. So, wherever a field is used in a template, the output formatting is applied.


Standard procedure

1. Click Action and document management design.
2. Click Output formatting.
3. Click New.
4. In the Extended data type name field, enter or select a value.
5. Define the number of decimals to be shown for the selected extended data type.
  In the Decimals field, enter a number.
6. Close the page.
