That answers one of my next questions.  I agree with that statement.  If
it does not support conditional statements, then it should be included
on the wish list.

We definitely need condition statements in creating logical fields.
That's
a Mapics enhancement I would love to see.

That is another thought that was suggested.  I don't have any extra
fields in the file, so I would have to create a tag along file and
create a trigger to keep it in sync.  I was hoping that I could use an
Alias for the debit/credit field as a C = -1 and D = 1 and create a
logical expression that would simply multiply the amount field by the
alias value to give me the desired result.  This did not work so I am
left only with the extra file and trigger.  Seems like there should be
an easier way to solve this.
