Use of the Field - key can vary depending on the system.
However, with most systems the Field - key operates the same
as the Field
+
and Field Exit keys except that it is allowed only in
signed numeric and numeric only fields. Pressing this key inserts
a - (minus) sign in the last position of a signed numeric field or
it changes the last position of a numeric only field to an
alphabetic character.
Note: The Field - key causes an error if used with any field not
programmed to accept negative input.
To use the Field - key:
Press the
EJ
key.
