    Hi Hossam,

    I assume that you are referring to computed column in a view.

    Refer to the standard view CustTransSettleHistView for understanding how to create computed column in a view and creating a method for computed column.

    To get absolute value I found one method available in the class SysComputedColumn.

    Method name is abs.

    SysComputedColumn::abs("expression");

    Try using that method and check.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
