Consider the example of a report using relative values. Suppose you have a report that contains a list of products (standard format), prices (currency format), and a profitability index (number format).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.stimulsoft.com\/en\/documentation\/online\/user-manual\/embim790.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now let&#039;s add a column showing profitability. In this case, profitability is a ratio expressed as a percentage. To do so, add a text component to the right with a reference to the Product.ProfitabilityIndex column and set the format of this text component to percent. The header for this column will be &quot;Profitability&quot;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.stimulsoft.com\/en\/documentation\/online\/user-manual\/embim791.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There used to be two ways to determine the format mask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"11\" height=\"11\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.stimulsoft.com\/en\/documentation\/online\/user-manual\/strel11.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 11px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 11\/11;\">\u00a0Use local settings, the text is formatted according to the current settings of the operating system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"11\" height=\"11\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.stimulsoft.com\/en\/documentation\/online\/user-manual\/strel11.png\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 11px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 11\/11;\">\u00a0Each parameter is manually defined by the format mask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both have their drawbacks. For example, if you change the format parameters in your local settings, you need to edit the OS format. In the second case, if one parameter needs to be changed, the other should also be adjusted. Considering the disadvantages of these methods, there is a third method for determining the format. You can change any parameter format using local settings. To do this, set a flag next to the parameter and set its value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\"
