Hi all,

Do anybody have a calulator which return value in the actual field from which the calculator is called. Means, if you push a field, ex. Quantity a the calclator will open, you can enter ex. 2 x 4 and press "transform" and then 8 returns to the field.

Used for touch screens.
Kind Regards

    If you enter 2*4 in a decimal field the RTC will create the 8 for you. You don't need a calculator for that.

    PS: This was a "New Feature" in SP1.

    You mean a "returned feature" right :wink: I think that except 2009 RTC every version of Navision did this. Good to see they are giving back what they took away. :mrgreen:

    Yup.

    It was one of the first issues I reported back when testing CTP3 of the RTC.

    Ofcourse you can calculate in af decimal field, this have been possible since the first Navision version back in eighties..

    BUT !! its not possible to enter any amounts if you only have your finger !!

    What I need is a calculator on which I (with my finger) can point on the amounts I want to return to ex. Quantity, Salesprice, Discount etc etc.
    Kind Regards

    Assuming there's a computer connected to the screen, with an open USB slot, it might be a good solution though. Don't just dismiss the suggestion, you might be able to somehow put the numpad right next to the screen. Probably cost a lot less than have your partner develop a calculator input form.
