Hi Kevin

We are based in the UK, and although the standard invoice amount in payments gives us decimals, we need the thousand seperator for:

PaymentAmount/Value

So In my fixed etext I have tried all of these:

FORMAT_NUMBER("PaymentAmount/Value", "999,999.99")

FORMAT_NUMBER("OutboundPaymentInstruction/PaymentInstructionInfo/OutboundPayment/PaymentAmount/Value", "999,999.99")

FORMAT_NUMBER(OutboundPaymentInstruction/PaymentInstructionInfo/OutboundPayment/PaymentAmount/Value, "999,999.99")

FORMAT_NUMBER("OutboundPaymentInstruction/PaymentInstructionInfo/OutboundPayment/PaymentAmount/Value", "999,999.99")

In the output I get: ?????????

What am I doing wrong?

In the etext field the field is defined as follows:

<LEVEL>

DocumentPayable

<POSITION>

<LENGTH>

<FORMAT>

<DATA>

<PAD>

<COMMENTS>

<NEW RECORD>

LINE_DETAILS

10

Number

FORMAT_NUMBER("1234567890.0987654321", "999,999.99")

Thanks In Advance!
