Form Calculation

Since version: 1.17

With the Form Calculation profile, expressions can be written to update a form value based on expression logic. This profile is used when defining form calculations in Field Maps. When the script is evaluated, the return value is cast to the field type of the output value. It is best practice to handle casting within the script for full control of casting behavior to Number, Date, or Text return types.

Context

The following products implement this profile:

Spatial reference
