I want to calculate the amount in USD (the origin amount / exchange rate if it is LCY) the customer ledger entry and add that to query. I tried to create a procedure in the query to calculate it but how i can add this in the dataitem. This is my code

query 50115 Payments
{
    QueryType = API;
    APIPublisher = 'Muaaz';
    APIGroup = 'Sales';
    APIVersion = 'v2.0';
    EntityName = 'Payments';
    EntitySetName = 'Payments';

    elements
    {
        dataitem(Cust__Ledger_Entry; "Cust. Ledger Entry")
        {
            column(Posting_Date; "Posting Date")
            {
                Caption = 'Posting_Date', Locked = true;
            }
            column(Customer_No_; "Customer No.")
            {
                Caption = 'Customer_No', Locked = true;
            }
            column(Document_Type; "Document Type")
            {
                Caption = 'Document Type', Locked = true;
            }
            column(Amount__LCY_; "Amount (LCY)")
            {
                Caption = 'Payment Amount', Locked = true;
            }
 
           
            d

        }
    }

    local procedure GetAmountUSD(CustLedEntry: Record "Cust. Ledger Entry"): Decimal
    var
        CurrExchangeRate: Record "Currency Exchange Rate";
    begin
        if CustLedEntry."Currency Code" = '' then begin
            CurrExchangeRate.SetRange("Currency Code", 'USD');
            CurrExchangeRate.SetRange("Starting Date", 0D, CustLedEntry."Posting Date");
            if CurrExchangeRate.FindLast() then
                AmountUSD := CustLedEntry."Original Amount" / CurrExchangeRate."Relational Exch. Rate Amount"
            else
                AmountUSD := CustLedEntry."Original Amount";
        end;
    end;

    var
        AmountUSD: Decimal;

}
I can not figure out how to add this variable to the dataitem. Is there anyway i can do this?

    Did you try to use the procedure as the source for your column?

    column(Amount__USD; GetAmounsUSD(rec))

               {

                   Caption = 'Payment Amount', Locked = true;

               }
