You can format values within the

Field Properties

dialog (see Types of Data and Field Properties) or within a function invoked from a field where you set the Source to Formula.

The output of a format is a display value and therefore a string.

The

infa:format()

function has four arguments that enable you to specify the format. For example, if you set the Source to Formula, you can use an expression similar to the following:

infa.format($output.Created Lead.AnnualRevenue * .75, "#######.")

Process Designer evaluates the text of the format string and places a value in that format. For example, the format "#,##0.00" tells Process Designer that at least one number to the left of the decimal point must display as well as two to the right. if they are not present, use a zero. Also, depending upon the length, it can insert a comma.

The patterns you can use for formatting values are the same patterns used in Java classes. If you need information on:
