             Summary: Form Display Field improvement to manage multiple number format
                 Key: OFBIZ-7532
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-7532
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ALL COMPONENTS
    Affects Versions: Trunk
            Reporter: Charles STELTZLEN
            Priority: Minor


On display field used in forms, there is a "type" "accounting-number" which is used to format number like property configuration :  #,##0.0000;(#,##0.0000).

This JIRA propose to extend this idea by using a "type" "number" and an additional attribute called "format-pattern". This field will be used by form renderer to get the good property. It use FlexibleString to manage variable in this field and so allow to have different format for the same column according to some conditions.

example: <field name="amount"><display type="number" format-pattern="accounting"/></field>

The "format-pattern" will be stored in arithmetic.properties.

example:
# the default number format 
default.number.format = ##0.00
accounting.number.format = #,##0.0000;(#,##0.0000)
quantity.number.format = ##0.00
integer-quantity.number.format = #0
percentage.number.format = ##.##%
export.number.format = #.00

In ModelFormField.java, the system gets property using EntityUtilProperties.getPropertyValue to ba able to quickly add a new format.

I think that it will require a discussion on Dev mailing-list to validate the choices.
