Business rule to display decimal value

[snowuser111]

Hi,

I want a field F1 in Incident table which will store the value (F2 * F3) where F3 can be decimal upto two decimals like 356.87.

What type F1 , F2 and F3 should be while creating is it String ?

Need business rule to store this value.

Can anyone suggest please

Thanks

i tried client script as below for Incident table. But the field does not display the value. I cant see the result.Can anyone help why it does not show?

---------------------------------------------------------------------

function onSubmit()

{

      var a = 356;

      var b = 456.45 ;

      var c = (356*456.45);

      g_form.setValue('u_swat_hours', c);

}

You mentioned it as business rule in the subject bat it looks like a client script from the code. If its a business rule then you cannot   use g_form in there ,   use current instead .   also change name of the function to onBefore() or onAfter() depending upon the type of BR .  

If you are using a client script then try to alert variable c .

Actually i was first trying from BR then went for Client script. I was testing the code below. But not sure if all fields should be decimal or string.

__________________________

function onSubmit()

{

      var a = g_form.getValue('u_people_number'); //this field should contain whole numbers

      var b = g_form.getValue('u_hours_on_swat');   // this field should contain decimal upto 3 digits.

      var c = (a*b);

      g_form.setValue('u_total_hours', c);   // this field should store value of (a*b)

          return true;

}

The Code seems to be correct . the only issue may be with type of the variable . as Kalaiarasan P mentioned use decimal and it should work.
