    Currently, from what I’ve read, you can’t use a calculation field in another calculation field. For example, Field A times Field B = Calculation Field C. Now you want to use Field C in Calculation Field D but it does not appear in the list of available fields. Is this something coming on a future release? If not, maybe a field in which you can manually enter a numeric calculation when creating a new record.

    Hi Snoopy :-)

    You’re right, I haven’t added the ability to select a calculation field to be used inside another formula. It could cause a problem with infinite loops, so I wasn’t ready to tackle that when I added it. But I’m sure I’ll add it to a future update. It’s a logical feature to want to have.

    Thanks!
