There is currently no easy way to display currency and percentage data in ArcGIS Online charts and pop-ups. These are very common types of information and the system should handle them better whereas currently the user must manually format them. Additionally, if these types appear in charts there is currently no way to have them appear with customary formatting conventions (e.g., you can't put $ or % in chart mouse-over tips).
Suggest adding "Currency" (US$ and eventually others) and "Percentage" field types. These field types should provide reasonable default formatting and enable appropriate formatting options in the Format Fields dialog.
This suggestion would also apply in certain respects to ArcGIS for Server and the Geodatabase.
I added the expression below as suggested above, it works in my web map, but not in the web app.
return Text($feature.TOTAL_ELIGIBLE_PROJECT_COST, '$ ###,###,###');
So after almost 7 years, what is the status? And we shouldn't have to use Arcade or any added steps to do this either. You can add symbols and suffixes in Pro, should be able to do it online. I've also posted an idea like this and haven't heard anything, Add Symbols and Suffixes to Pop-Ups in AGOL.
Unfortunately we missed the 10th birthday of this idea. How hard is it for ESRI to include these standard formats in AGOL / Enterprise? Sure you can write Arcade expressions, but we shouldn't have to and they also change the format to string which then prevents statistics and numerical calculations being used. When is this going to be implemented?
Wow, almost 12 years old now. All I want is to be able to put a currency sign in front of currency fields. I agree, we shouldn't have to write Arcade for this. I just want to use a fields list in the popup. I love that I can remove the thousands separator on numeric fields and the time on datetime fields, so I was hoping this was doable.
This is absolutely needed and necessary. Especially if I already have this formatted in an ArcGIS Pro project (like I do currently), it needs to carry over to ArcGIS Online!
