Description

Field Reference

Refer to the value of field or another field. The syntax for the field element is ${Object.FieldName}. The syntax for the field element on relation module is {Object.Parent.FieldName} for Parent/Child relationship. 


Operator

A symbol that specifies the type of calculation to perform or the order in which to do it. For example, the * symbol specifies two values should be multiplied, using the syntax ${Object.SalesPrice * Object.Quantity}.


Function

A system-defined formula that can require input from you and returns a value or values. For example, ${Date.Today} does not require input but returns the current date. The ${SUM(Object.value)} function requires your reference fields input and returns summary value.


Literal Value

A text string or number you enter that is not calculated or changed. For example, if you have a value that’s always added by 100 of an amount, your element would contain the literal value of 100 of that amount and its syntax will be ${Object.Amount + 100).
