Hi All,

How to convert decimal to text field in business central, I tried this code ( FORMAT() ) but the result appear (0.00) in QR Code.

BarcodeString := "No." + 'رقم الفاتورة: ' +
                 "VAT Registration No." + ' :الرقم الضريبي' +
                 FORMAT("Due Date") + ' :تاريخ طباعة ' +
                 FORMAT(TotalSubTotal) + 'Total' +
                 FORMAT("Amount Including VAT", 0, '<Precision,2:2><Standard Format,0>') + ' :المجموع ';

    Is it a flowfield you are getting the decimal value from?

    And if so, have you run calcfileds  ?

    Check your "Amount Including VAT" if it is a value or a flowfield.

    If it is a flowfield, you need to call calcfields beforehand.

    CALCFIELDS("Amount Including VAT");

    Hi, As mentioned above, the "Amount Including VAT" field in the SalesHeader table is FlowField.

    When you read its value in a report, you need to use Record.CalcFields(Any [, Any,...]) Method or Record.SetAutoCalcFields([Any,...]) Method.
