Changing the sign for a linked value
已回答I want to link a value from a Note (sign is positive) to an EBITDA calculation (sign is negative). Is there a way to change the formatting in the linked cell?

I have the same question. Has anyone figured this out yet?

Yes, you have to right click on the link, link options, value formatting, then check off "use absolute value"

The underlying number is not negative; therefore, it is not using absolute value. Our consolidation software produces consolidated face statement numbers where the liabilities are positive. I need to flip those signs to negative for use in my cash flow workpaper.

Hi Jennifer,
A little late to the party here. Sadly there's not been any new advancements here. I checked with our experts and there's no direct way to flip the sign of a value. The workarounds suggested are akin to the above, i.e. adding another column to your spreadsheet with a
=0-Cellcalc all the way down, and then linking those values instead.I am happy to share your experience and need back with our development team as we look further info this feature request. We'll keep you apprised there as well.
In the meantime, give me a holler if you have any follow-ups. Thanks again and happy Friday!
P.S. thanks for contributing as well, Ekaterina!

No news here I'm afraid Abi Chandra. This still remains proposed with our product team and will move into further consideration for 2025. We have got you added here though and will keep you apprised.
