Internationalization Formatter and Type Formatter in a Rule

[Angelo_Ab]

Hi,

here is explained how to use Formatters in a Control Attribute:

https://help.sap.com/doc/f53c64b93e5140918d676b927a3cd65b/Cloud/en-US/docs-en/guides/getting-started...

Is there a way to use this Formatters programmatically in a Rule ?

For Example the Number is 1000 and Currency is EUR if I use this Syntax $(C, 1000, EUR, it-IT ) in an Control Attribute it shows correctly and the result is 1.000,00 €

In JavaScript the way to do this is as follows:

let Text = Num.toLocaleString("it-IT", {style:"currency", currency:"EUR"});

The problem using this in a Rule is that the currency symbol is not shown and the result is 1.000,00

Thank you.

You need to call the MDK clientAPI formatting functions in your rule.  For currency you would call clientAPI.formatCurrency.

context.formatCurrency(1000,'EUR','it-IT','{maximumFractionDigits:2,useGrouping:true}')
"1.000,00 €"
