What exactly is a Calculated Field?

The Calculated field allows you to calculate a value based on the values that have been selected in the form.

A technical implementation can be very complex if you enable brackets in the algorithm.
For example,

((2 * (a + b)) + 5) / 3

is readable. However, it can be difficult to process.
This representation (in reverse Polish notation or postfix), on the other hand
a b + 2 * 5 + 3 /
can be processed relatively easily and is also readable for an experienced person.

For longer formulas (or calculation instructions), readability can be greatly impaired. For this reason, multi-line and structural commands have been supported since April 15, 2024.

A field consists of:

• a single-line expression which can contain these operators. Operators for Calculated Fields

• or a multi-line structure which is described here. Structure Elements for Calculated Fields

Here are some example templates:

• Requirements Method ICE

• Requirements Method RICE

• Requirements Method WSJF

• Security - Incident - CVSS 3.1

• Human Resources - Scorecard Initial Screening Interview

• Human Resources - Scorecard React Developer
