About this task

On parent clauses, terms of type number, decimal, or monetary amount, the minimum and maximum values can be Fixed or Calculated. Although Fixed and Calculated appear on clauses without children, you cannot specify any Argument(s). The steps for option clause terms are the same except that the value is always Calculated.

For option clause terms, Conditional Exceptions are not available.

  2. Click Terms.
  3. On one of the terms, click <none> in the Minimum Value column.

  4. The Value Type can be either Fixed or Calculated.
  5. If you select Fixed, enter a Minimum Possible Value.
  6. If this clause has numeric clause terms and you select Calculated, select a Function.
