Prefix a MINUS sign before a decimal number through trsfmr

Suppose there is a value 46.126523000000 in the source.

I want to truncate the value to two decimal values.

I used a transformer derivation DecimalToDecimal(lnk.AmtPosted,"round_inf") to truncate the values into two decimal values.

I want to have a minus before the value.

Now the output value is 46.13 .

I want it to be -46.13 .

Please let me know how can I implement it ?

multiply with -1

Multiply by -1 is definitely the easiest approach.

Does anyone else has got some other idea for getting the MINUS sign before the decimal number?

Of course, but none as elegant as multiplying by -1.
