Display Input as Currency

[jfiszer110]

I need to display the number input in the DataCardValue11 as currency. I don't need any decimal places just the $ symbol and ###,###,### . Can you help please?

Hi @jfiszer110 

Text(DataCardValue11,"$###,###,###")

Like this:

Text(Value(DataCardValue11.Text), "$###,###,###") 

Or if you want to see the leading zeros like this:

Text(Value(DataCardValue11.Text), "$000,000,000")

@mdevaney is correct.

Mine would work referring to a numeric field value, but this is a control, which has a text value that needs to be converted.

Thanks for the quick response! I should have been more clear in my request. Is there a way to format the entry as it is being typed by the end-user? Realtime...

Try the different approaches listed in this article:
https://365basics.com/powerapps-3-different-ways-to-implement-currency-input-mask/

I have found all 3 of them to be very useful, you can choose the one that fits your use case (most likely the 3rd one for you).

Let me know if this helps.

Hi @jfiszer110 ,

Do you want to format the data that you enter in the textinput?

Could you describe more clearly about the time that you want to format the entered data? when you finish typing or when you are typing?

I'm afraid powerapps could only distinguish whether you've finished typing automatically.

And there's no property that can change the entered data format when you are still typing.

Both "OnSelect" and "Onchange" action will not be triggered when you are still entering data in the textinput.

So, you need to make an action to tell powerapps that you've finished typing to trigger OnSelect or OnChange property, for example, click the blank place or click the textinput again.

Here are two ways to format, the format time is a little different. You could choose based on your demands.

Both them works when you've finished typing and do another action like I listed above.

1)set OnSelect

set the textinput's OnSelect:

Set(var,Text(RoundDown(Value(TextInput1.Text),0),"[$-en-US]$###,###,###"));Reset(TextInput1)

set the textinput's Default:

var

In this solution, after you type data in the textinput, the data format will be changed when you click the textinput again.

Just like this gif:

2)set OnChange

set the textinput's OnChange

Set(var,Text(RoundDown(Value(TextInput1.Text),0),"[$-en-US]$###,###,###"));Reset(TextInput1)

set the textinput's Default:

var

In this solution, after you type data in the textinput, the data format will be changed when you click the blank place.

Just like this gif:

 Or you could also both set these two properties.Then after you enter data, you could click the textinput again or click the blank place, the data will both be formatted.

Best regards,
