    Avant de commencer

    Role required: admin, function_field_admin

    Procédure

    1. Navigate to sys_reports.list and select New.
    2. Select a report based on the table that you want to add a function field to.
      When you configure a function field, it is available in any report on the same table. For example, a function field that calculates how long incidents have been open is available for all reports on the incident table.
    3. Open the Configure tab and select Configure function field.
    4. Facultatif : Enter text in the Search functions box to find the function field you want to edit.
      Search functionality searches on the Label of the field, the name of the field, and the function definition.
    5. Select a new operation, new fields the function operates on, or both.
      Validation of the edited function may indicate that it returns an invalid result.
    6. Select Save.
      If one or more reports use the function field, you see a link to a list of those reports. You can review the list, select Save anyway, or select Cancel.

    The results of the edited function field replace the old results in all reports in which the function field is used.
