Defining object field evaluations
You can use an object field evaluation to evaluate the value of a field in any object that is included in the definition of an object structure. You can also evaluate other business objects that can be accessed by using a WHERE clause.
About this task
Regardless of the locale setting of the application server or the database, all decimal fields must use a period (.) as the decimal placeholder. There is no formatting of numbers to the left of the placeholder. This format applies to inbound and outbound data. For example, $1,738,593.64 must be 1738593.64.
You can use an object
field evaluation to perform the following evaluations:
- Check if the field is null or not null
- Compare the value in the object field with the value of an integration control or a system control
- Compare the value in the object field with predefined value
If the data does not satisfy the comparison, the evaluation returns a false result. If the data satisfies the comparison, the evaluation returns a true result.
