Hi,
I've modified a formula in one of my calculated fields to show correct value.
However, upon publishing. I want to make the changes reflect or say, I want to trigger an update to the calculated fields. They are not reflecting the correct value on my View.
When I open the record, they show correct value but can't make the value reflect on the view somehow.
What could be incorrect here? Kindly advise.
Thanks.

In Dynamics 365; the recalculation of the Rollup fields is scheduled to run hourly by default. you can change the recurrence in the Settings/System Jobs
And the Calculated fields are recalculated on the fly
If it doesn't update as expected, please check the logic in your built query, it is maybe using fields that are not up to date or using date fields that are forcing the result to remain unchanged.
I am with Pawel!
Sorry Francesco but you are wrong.
All of this things are correct for Rollup Fields, not Calculated fields. Calculated fields are computed on database level, and they are automaticaly updated on views and forms (simply because there is no value stored anywhere, so from where it would be taken?). Good blogpost about this:
community.dynamics.com/.../dynamics-crm-calculation-amp-rollup-fields
If you want to recalculate your rollup fields, you can use XrmToolBox for that, there is a plugin doing that.
Fancesco is right. I thought Calculated Fields were automatic but they actually have a refresh rate just like other fields. You can potentially have a plugin or custom workflow to set the values depending on what it is and how important the real-time information is.
Hi Priyesh,
calculated fields refresh value:
- On Save
- Every 12 hours
- When user presses rollup refresh button
The scenario is clear, none of the following events have occurred yet.
So you need to wait 12 hours or run a dummy workflow overall record to save records.
Please let me know if you solve.

Hi,
Is the field actually a calculated field? A rollup field happens every hour (by default if I remember correctly) and if the field is being calculated by Business Rule, you may need to enter the form before it takes effect.
Calculated fields should be automatic and reflect correctly on views. Is your calculated field dependent on other fields that have not updated?
