Define Formula An explanation of fields and properties

Define Formula

To access this dialog:

• This dialog is generic and displayed from multiple functions in your application.

Formula arguments vary; for economic settings and MAO grade classes the arguments are element grades, for custom report fields the arguments are standard economic model fields.

Formulas set using this dialog are sensitive to your operating system locale settings. Formulae may not work as expected if the decimal symbol is set to comma (,) rather than period (.).
