CHANGING THE SIGN OF THE NUMBER

Hi I would just like to ask if how can I change the sign using the debit/credit indicator fields. I want to know the exact formula to use so that its easy for me to transform. I want to change the sign with negative (-) if it is "C". Here is the sample data:

 

D/CAmountExpected Amount
D100100
C100-100
D5050
C50-50

Hi @dunkindonut7777,

 

This is relatively simple. You need to use the formula tool and use this formula:

 

IIF([D/C]='C', [Amount]*-1, [Amount])

 

We will just multiply your value by -1 to get the expected outcome.
