Use Field formatters to force the contents of extracted fields into a predefined format for consistency. For example, an amount may contain decimals and commas, for example,1,500.00. Use the Amount formatter to reformat amounts to numeric values (1500).

You can associate a formatter with document or folder type fields, including table columns.

You can apply either single field formatter (Date, Percentage, Amount or Business Rule) or multiple field formatter (Business Rule) to a field.

TotalAgility supports the following formatter types:

• Amount: Configures settings related to monetary amounts and currency.

• Date: Configures date formats.

• Percentage: Configures percentage formats.

• Business Rule: Performs special formatting based on a business rule. A business rule can also be used to do dependent formatting whereby the format of a field depends on the value of another field.

TotalAgility provides two default formatters:

• DefaultDateFormatter: Contains basic date formatting, such as the date order and date output format.

• DefaultAmountFormatter: Contains the default currency and typical decimal symbol formatting.
