    Hello,  I need an attribute which is calculated but need to show it as a percentage. I saw only Number type can be shown as percentage.Any ideas?  Thank you,Rajani.

    I don't think calculated values can be shown as percentage. One work around is to create attribute as type number instead of calculated and build a custom trigger on  this attribute  that performs the same calculation.      Note:- Custom triggers should be approved by CA support prior to deployment in production.    ThanksSiva

    Thanks Siva. I tried custom trigger to feed the existing Number field. Is it possible to make it read-only? I do not see that option any where.
