Disable “+” in all Maps

About this task

The translator.input.allowsigneddecimal property enables the use of a plus sign on the input side (only) for all maps. The default is TRUE (enabled), but you can configure it to FALSE (disabled). This will trigger a translation error when a plus sign precedes a number.

Note: Regardless of whether you set the translator.input.allowsigneddecimal property to true (enabled) or false (disabled), it may be overridden by any plus sign parameters specified by using field-level validation.

The translator.output.generatesigneddecimal property enables the generation of a plus sign on the output side (only) for all maps. The default is FALSE (disabled), but you can configure it to TRUE.

Note: Regardless of whether you set the translator.input.allowsigneddecimal property to true (enabled) or false (disabled), it may be overridden by any plus sign parameters specified by using field-level validation.

You can disable the use of the “+” for the input side of all maps, as follows:
