What is the proposed idea/solution?
Add a new field called Rate—a number/currency column that can add a suffix (custom field) such as a unit. Same as how the Currency field works, where we can add a custom prefix, but this one adds a custom suffix. Additionally, we should still be able to format them (integer, decimal, currency).
For example:
- 5 grams
- 9.81 m/s
- $9.99 /bundle
How does this solve the user problems?
This would remove the need to create a field for the unit and concatenate it using a formula field, allowing two fewer fields in a view.
Who is the target audience?
Everyone, most especially those who use Airtable for information, research, retail, and inventory.
