Using scaling

The scaling factor performs a simple arithmetical operation on extracted values. It can be defined if Use Scaling is selected for the selected extraction format.

By default a scaling factor of /100 is used which divides the extracted amount by factor 100. You can also the multiplication (*), addition (+), and subtraction (-) operators to scale values. You can use a scaling factor to change units in executive summary reports.

You can add further scaling factors to specify, for example, currency exchange rates.

For example, assume that 1 EURO = $ 1.215 USD. To convert extracted Euro values to dollars, specify ' *1.215 ' as the scaling factor.

The scaling factor does not perform any rounding. So, for example, 1354.5658 with a scaling factor of /100 becomes 13.545658.

For accuracy, the scaling factor is performed on the final summary result rather than on individual transactions. To maximize performance, scaling factor calculations are completed by the server and not the client PC.
