About constants

Constants are parameters or values in an expression that do not change.

Example

Suppose you create an expression for a calculated field that determines the retention of a payable invoice by multiplying the invoice total times the retention rate.

The retention rate .05 is the constant in the expression:

ACPINV.INVTTL * .05.
