String Value to Return and Numeric Value to Return

When you create a named calculation for QA results, you use these options to specify whether to display the calculation result as a string or as a numeric value in the applications that display named calculations. You can use the Numeric Value to Return option to display the results of the named calculation for QA results as numeric values.

If you select Test Value in the Entity Field(s) to Return field, the system does not check the Numeric field in the Test Definitions Master table (F3701) until the return value is actually calculated.

If you select From Result Value in the Entity Field(s) to Return field and select Numeric Value to Return, the system checks the Numeric field in the Test Result Name table (F37013). If this option is not selected for the test result name, the system issues an error message indicating that the return value for the test result has to be a string value.
