This field allows you to create a dynamic input box which will be filled by participants of the envelope processing flow.

This field can be added to structured and PDF documents.

How to add a number field to the document?

To add the field to the document, use one of the field adding methods with the field icon in the Fields tab of the template editor menu

The field creation form will appear, where you should set field attributes

../../../../../../../../_images/numberCreate.png

  1. Name - this is the name of a field

  2. Role name - this is a role which will be assigned to fill this field

  3. Placeholder - this text will be shown inside the field before it is filled in (can be left empty; field`s name will be used instead)

  4. Optional - this attribute specifies if this field is mandatory to fill

  5. Search - this attribute specifies if this field should be eligible for mailbox page search

  6. Adapt to the local format - this attribute specifies if numbers will be formatted according to the regional standard

Numbers in envelope view will be formatted according to the standard of the region which is selected on the User profile page. You can see a formatting example under the region selector on that page. Numbers in printable versions of the documents will always be formatted according to the platform region standard.

  1. Show decimal zeroes (becomes editable if precision is set) - if enabled, zeroes will be added to fill all empty decimal places of the field value

  2. Precision - number of decimal places allowed in field (no limit is applied if left empty)

If the value inside the field has more decimal places than allowed by the precision attribute, all extra places will be trimmed. No rounding will be applied. E.g. if the original value is 1.99, it will be changed to 1.9 if precision is set to 1 and will be changed to 1 if precision is set to 0.

  1. Min - minimal value allowed in the field (no limit is applied if left empty)

  2. Max - maximal value allowed in the field (no limit is applied if left empty)

The maximum allowed character count for a number field is 15 (according to IEEE 754). Please note this includes decimal places. This means that if your field has a precision attribute set to 3 and you insert a value 999999999999999 or more characters, it will be converted to 999999999999.000.

When all attributes are set, you can click the Save button, and the field will be added. You can click the field to see its properties and update them. Also, you can delete the field in the same menu.
