         'FROM Document_Detail ' +
         'WHERE Tax <> '''' ' +
         'GROUP BY Dockey, Tax, TaxRate';
  AddDataSet('GSTAmt', ['Tax', 'TaxRate', 'LocalTaxAmt', 'LocalAmount']) // Create New Pipeline (eg here is GSTAmt)
  .GetLocalData(SQL) // Execute the Query
  .SetDisplayFormat(['LocalTaxAmt', 'LocalAmount'],<Option."AccountingValueDisplayFormat">) // Set Display Format
  .LinkTo('Main', 'Dockey', 'Dockey'); // Link the New Pipeline (eg here is to link with Main Pipeline)
