Example
Example 1: In this example, we use the Convert Number to Text command to convert the number 512 into a "SimpleMoney" format, which varies depending on the language defined in the execution context. Then, we set the language to "Spanish (Spain)", using the Set Language command. The number 512 is again converted into "SimpleMoney" format, but now with a different language formatting.
defVar --name currencyText --type String
// Converts the number 512 into "SimpleMoney" format based on the language of the current execution context
convertNumberToText --number 512 --conversiontype "SimpleMoney" currencyText=value
logMessage --message "Currency in the default system language: ${currencyText} (for en-US)" --type "Info"
// Sets the context language to "Spanish (Spain)"
setCulture --culture es-ES
// Converts the number 512 into the "SimpleMoney" format, but now using Spanish
convertNumberToText --number 512 --conversiontype "SimpleMoney" currencyText=value
logMessage --message "Currency in Spanish (Spain): ${currencyText}" --type "Info"
// This example has the following result:
// Currency in the default system language: $512.00 (for en-US)
// Currency in Spanish (Spain): €512,00
The output varies depending on the IBM RPA Studio's current language. Therefore, if necessary, change the language defined in the Set Language.
