Formulas

Formulas are a special type of field input. As the name suggests, they are used in calculations, based on different parameters. Formulas are used in pricing, discounts, payroll calculation, finance reports, etc.

Wherever the result is variable – calculable from data based on some mathematical formula. The basic formula syntax is the same as the mathematical formula. 

Presented in more detail below are:

1. Operator

The operator can be a constant or a value from the program. If the operator is a constant, we simply enter it.

We use the program fields by placing them between 'apostrophes''. .

#RPRICE#

RPRICE, #RPRICE

The fields that can be used in formulas are defined using the formula. For example, with price formulas we can only use price fields, with salary formulas we can only use salary fields, etc. Which fields we can use is specified in the instructions.

2. Operators

Operators are allowed mathematical symbols:

+ add
- subtract
* multiply
/ divide
> greater than – for use in logical expressions
< less than – for use in logical expressions
= equals – for use in logical expressions
\ integer division – used exclusively for length-of-service formulas
| integer division remainder – used exclusively for length-of-service formulas

Other allowed characters:

[ ] The square brackets must always be paired, otherwise the formula test returns an error (see Opening or closing square bracket missing!). They are used for delimiting conditions in logical expressions (see Using boolean expressions in formulas).
( ) The round brackets must always be paired, otherwise the formula test returns an error (see Opening or closing round bracket missing!). They are used for determining the order in which mathematical operations are performed.

 

WARNING

The formulas are calculated from left to right. The logical expression in a formula can be as deep as you like.
