basic math in Web Form

Lou L ✭

03/22/16 edited 12/09/19 inArchived 2016 Posts

I would like to see the ability to add, subtract, multiply and divide in a Web-form. Asking for financial information and need to add 5 or 6 boxes to have a subtotal. (at least one box is the multiple of 2 other boxes), Then deduct optional box for a final total on Web-Form. Now I ask the person filling out the form to do the math, but my sheet has to check the work.

Hi Lou, while you cannot use formulas in web forms (I'll add your vote for this!) you can have formulas automatically added to new rows added to your sheet (such as when a form is submitted).

Here's information on autofilling formulas:http://help.smartsheet.com/customer/en/portal/articles/1641473-auto-filling-formulas-and-formatting

If the two percent columns are formatted as percent columns (see screenshot), then the % Not Complete column would have this formula: <\/p>

=1 - [%Complete]<\/em>@row<\/p>

@Pamela Wagner<\/a> - Hello<\/p>
The column mapping you setup in the DataMesh configuration is used to determine what information needs to link or copy and where it needs to go. The Execution Frequency<\/strong> is what tells the system when to run the DataMesh workflow.<\/p>
Execution Frequency: Scheduled execution frequency to update DataMesh values.<\/p>
The Update Immediately<\/em> execution frequency isn't supported when using a report as your source. If using a report this could be why you are not seeing updates immediately.<\/p>
As far as what triggers a workflow to run when \"Update Immediately\" is selected, DataMesh looks for matching cell values and these could come from manual entries, formulas, or cell links. When there is a successful mesh you can see the CONFIG LOGS by clicking the paper icon.<\/p>
\n \n \n $\"Screenshot$ <\/img><\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
After clicking the paper icon a CONFIG LOGS window will pop up showing a history of all the successful and errors.<\/p>
\n
\n \n $\"image.png\"$ <\/img><\/a>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
If it is unsuccessful the paper icon will be red or in the CONFIG LOGS it will show the error.<\/p>

<\/p>
If further investigation is needed I recommend to click here<\/a> to open a Smartsheet support ticket. If you do make sure you include any screenshots without personal or confidential information displayed.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":343,"name":"Add Ons and Integrations","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/apps-and-integrations","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":107009,"type":"question","name":"I need help with a if formula to get the $ amount total if another column = a specific item.","excerpt":"I want to make a formula in the Column \"A Total\" in the highlighted Cell, that will give me the Sum of $ from Grand Total Column if the A is in the Project column.","snippet":"I want to make a formula in the Column \"A Total\" in the highlighted Cell, that will give me the Sum of $ from Grand Total Column if the A is in the Project column.","categoryID":322,"dateInserted":"2023-06-28T12:55:48+00:00","dateUpdated":null,"dateLastComment":"2023-06-28T16:37:28+00:00","insertUserID":162272,"insertUser":{"userID":162272,"name":"Elayne Smith","title":"Project Manager","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Elayne%20Smith","photoUrl":"https:\/\/aws.smartsheet.com\/storageProxy\/image\/images\/u!1!z_neMx7Hvj4!mVDfnuqtMWQ!RH9Ly5uQ-po","dateLastActive":"2023-06-28T13:41:35+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭"},"updateUserID":null,"lastUserID":45516,"lastUser":{"userID":45516,"name":"Paul Newcome","title":"","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Paul%20Newcome","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/userpics\/082\/nQPUTVFKKWDJ2.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-06-28T17:08:51+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭✭✭"},"pinned":false,"pinLocation":null,"closed":false,"sink":false,"countComments":4,"countViews":35,"score":null,"hot":3375929596,"url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/107009\/i-need-help-with-a-if-formula-to-get-the-amount-total-if-another-column-a-specific-item","canonicalUrl":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/107009\/i-need-help-with-a-if-formula-to-get-the-amount-total-if-another-column-a-specific-item","format":"Rich","lastPost":{"discussionID":107009,"commentID":382888,"name":"Re: I need help with a if formula to get the $ amount total if another column = a specific item.","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/discussion\/comment\/382888#Comment_382888","dateInserted":"2023-06-28T16:37:28+00:00","insertUserID":45516,"insertUser":{"userID":45516,"name":"Paul Newcome","title":"","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/profile\/Paul%20Newcome","photoUrl":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/userpics\/082\/nQPUTVFKKWDJ2.jpg","dateLastActive":"2023-06-28T17:08:51+00:00","banned":0,"punished":0,"private":false,"label":"✭✭✭✭✭✭"}},"breadcrumbs":[{"name":"Home","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/"},{"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions"}],"groupID":null,"statusID":3,"image":{"url":"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6031209\/uploads\/N80WFJ95P6OH\/image.png","urlSrcSet":{"10":"","300":"","800":"","1200":"","1600":""},"alt":"image.png"},"attributes":{"question":{"status":"accepted","dateAccepted":"2023-06-28T13:45:50+00:00","dateAnswered":"2023-06-28T13:05:16+00:00","acceptedAnswers":[{"commentID":382818,"body":"
Hi @Elayne Smith<\/a>,<\/p>
The formula for this would be:<\/p>
=SUMIF(Project:Project, \"A\", [Grand Total]:[Grand Total])<\/p>
