  fieldname1 * (fieldname2 + fieldname3)
  

• With rounding operations. Round the result to two decimal places:

  PREC(fieldname2 / fieldname3, 2)
  

• There are infinite number of formulas that can be created using complex structures. For example, the following formula includes conditional statements:

  (function () {
  if (100 < fieldname3) return fieldname1 + fieldname2;
  if (fieldname3 <= 100) return fieldname1 * fieldname2;
  })();
  

• For complex formulas/equations you must use the function format with return statement to return the result to the calculated field:

   (function () {
      var result = 0;
      /* Your code here */
      return result;
  }) ();
  

Operations and operators to use in equations/formulas

One of the “Calculated Fields Form” strengths is the ability to use any valid JavaScript code to implement the equations/formulas.

However, the plugin includes a wide variety of operations and operators to simplify the development process.

Mathematical Operations and Operators

Conditional Operations

Field Handling Operations

Operations for interacting with external services

Operations for handling URLs and query strings

In addition to the operation modules listed above, the Developer and Platinum versions of the plugin include additional modules:

Date Time Operations

Financial Operations

Distance and Travel Time Operations

Operations to generate charts

Create variables from parameters received by “GET” or “POST”, “SESSION” variables, or “COOKIES” to use in the equations

The plugin includes the shortcode [CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS_VAR] to generate JavaScript variables from parameters received by “GET” or “POST”, “SESSION” variables, or “COOKIES”:

[CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS_VAR name="..."]

In the shortcode, you must replace the “…” symbols with the name of the parameter or variable. The variables are created as properties of the cff_var variable. For example, in the [CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS_VAR name=”my_var”] shortcode, you can access the variable value from the equations by using cff_var[‘my_var’], or cff_var.my_var

For example:

[CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS_VAR name="varname"]

You can use the variables generated through the shortcode [CP_CALCULATED_FIELDS_VAR] in the formulas of the calculated fields: fieldname1*cff_var.varname
