  Wrong information inside the Dynamics AX HELP (online and offline) Reply Contact Hi, please excuse my bad english. I am Steven from Austria... I would like to implement a column in my financial statement, type "calculation". Inside this column i would like to calculate the ratio from two columns in percent. Inside the dynamics help i found a formula like this "#1/#2 %"... But that does not work!!! Immediately after I insert this formula I get an Infolog message "Warning: There are syntactic errors in the expression "... Any Idea? Thank's a bomb! Steven

The documentation incorrectly states that ‘%’ can be used in an expression. The team responsible for documentation has been notified of this.

Is there a possibility to use something like this: (#3 == 0) ? 100 : ((#4-#3)/#3)*100 because if you use the standard percent formula you get an infolog message if for example the column 3 (#3) is null...

Although the infolog with the calculation errors may be annoying, if the value is calculated correctly in the column, you should be able to use the report.
