How to display sum of multiple values for a form in AOT

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Dear Experts,

Example: Behind the highlighted area (Remaining quantity) there's sum of various value quantities "On-order, Reserved physical and Picked". Currently out of 120, there's 80 Picked, 20 Reserved physical and 20 On-order. How do I tell the system in AOT to display sum only of 2 statuses "Reserved physical and On-order" so on my form it would show me remaining quantity 40 instead of 120?

Any suggestions are welcome.
Kind Regards,

    That would be a calculation in a display method on the table. Then depending on what your source values are, you could do the summation in different ways. If it is data in one or more tables, you could join them together and do a sum() aggregate function for the values in a select statement, a query or a view.

    select sum(ValueA), sum(ValueB) from table where table.selectionField == 'selectioncriteria';

    return table.ValueA + table.ValueB;

    The same can be achieved by doing a View to retrieve the values. It could even be an SQL Computed Column on the View if needs to be. It really depends on how does your source information look like, and how much do you care about performance optimization for the function.
