Hi,

Can anyone explain how to use LLike and RLike in Acumatica Report Designer?

Do you need to put percentage symbol after the text or not?

Thanks in advance!

Hi ​@dreycruz,

LLike and RLike in Acumatica Report Designer are Boolean string comparison functions used in filters and expressions.

They behave similarly to SQL LIKE, but are simplified helper functions.

RLike (Right Like → Starts With):-

Returns True if the field value starts with the specified text.

Example: =RLike([Customer.AcctCD], "C")

Matches:

  • C0001

  • CUST100

Equivalent SQL:Customer.AcctCD LIKE 'C%'

LLike (Left Like → Ends With):-

Returns True if the field value ends with the specified text.

Example: =LLike([Customer.AcctCD], "01")

Matches:

  • C0001

  • A1001

Equivalent SQL: Customer.AcctCD LIKE '%01

These functions are typically used in Schema Builder filters, VisibleExpr, or conditional formatting rules.
