Hi,
Can you please try this:
load(
local!amount: 10000 - 30000,
if( sign(local!amount)=-1,
append("-",dollar(abs(local!amount))),
dollar(abs(local!amount))
)
)

Hi Balaji,

I hope this code will help you.

rule!SPB_LMS_FL_textField(

label: "Balance",

isReadOnly: true(),

value:if(ri!exitBalance<0,

concat("-",pound(rule!returnPositiveDecimalNumber(ri!exitBalance))),pound(ri!exitBalance))

)

rule!returnPositiveDecimalNumber

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

if(

or(

rule!APN_isEmpty(

ri!decimalNumber

rule!checkIfDecimalNumberPositive(

ri!decimalNumber

)

ri!decimalNumber,

sqrt(

ri!decimalNumber * ri!decimalNumber

)

rule!checkIfDecimalNumberPositive

-----------------------------------------------------

if(

ri!decimalNumber >= 0,

true(),

false()

)

Result

----------

Hi rp_balaji ,

In case if you want to go with text function, please find the below code might help.

load(
local!specifiedFormat: stripwith(
tostring(
repeat(
len(
stripwith(
10000 - 30000,
"-"
)
),
"0"
)
),
"; "
),
text(
10000 - 30000,
concat(
"$",
local!specifiedFormat,
";#",
local!specifiedFormat
)
)
)

Regards,
Vijay

Hi rpbalaji2006 (balajir0001) there are multiple ways to achieve this requirement, hence please find the code snippet to achieve your requirement, mentioned below:

/* FOR dollar() related requirement */

/* Using Regex Pattern - using Appian Regular Expression Functions plugin */
regexreplaceall(
  "[()]",
  dollar(10000 - 30000, 0),
  ""
)
/* OUTPUT: "$20,000" */


/* Achieving the same using String Manipulation - without plugin */
load(
  local!amount: dollar(10000 - 30000, 0),
  if(
    isnull(local!amount),
    dollar(0),
    replace(
      replace(local!amount, 1, 1, ""), 
      len(replace(local!amount, 1, 1, "")),
      1, 
      ""
    )
  )
)
/* OUTPUT: "$20,000" */


/* For text() requirement */
/* As you are already aware, when you subtract more amount from lesser one, you should expect negative value as it's result */

Approach 1:  10000-30000    /* OUTPUT: 	-20000  Type: Number (Integer) */
Approach 2:  tostring(10000-30000) /* OUTPUT: "-20000"  Type: Text */

/* You don't need to use text function to achieve this requirement, you can simply use one of the above approach depending upon what return type you are expecting */

Hope this will help you.

Hi ,
use below code

1)

stripwith(
if(
sign(
10000-30000
)<0 ,
append(
"-",
dollar(
10000-30000
)
),
dollar(
10000-30000
)
),
"()"
)

result : "-$20,000.00"

2) dollar(abs(10000-30000)) result : "$20,000.00"

text(
10000-30000,
"###,###;-###,###"
)

result : "-20,000"
