The fields generally have a setting where null values are treated as 0, but you can probably also have it where you can set them as variables and go from there:
var number inventoryHand = if([Inventory on Hand] > 0, [Inventory on Hand], 0);
[Inventory Par] - $inventoryHand

- This formula could lead to a negative number being entered if the inventory on hand is greater than the par value.
To cover all bases,
var number inventoryHand = if([Inventory on Hand] > 0 and [Inventory on Hand] < [Inventory Par], [Inventory on Hand], 0);

------------------------------- So I tried this and It asked me to put a number after the semicolon, so i put the [Par] - [inventory on hand] and i'm still getting the same result. The issue is if the on hand is null then i want the order amount to be 0, and it only does the equation (par - on hand) when someone enters in a number for the on hand inventory. The par is always static so right now in the order it is always showing that static number when on hand inventory is null

If(IsNull([inventory on hand]), 0, [Par] - [inventory on hand])

- Hi Paul,
Thank you so much so far! I tried your formula: If(IsNull([inventory on hand]), 0, [Par] - [inventory on hand])
i'm still getting the par as my result to order instead of 0 when my on hand inventory is null
Any other idea? Thank you so much!

If([inventory on hand]="", 0, [Par] - [inventory on hand])
