How to add values of two fields in a Workflow?

edited Nov 9, 2023 9:22PM in Ask A Guru 7 comments

We have created a custom record that we’re using as a CMS to request maintenance and repairs. There are two fields… Purchase Cost and Vendor Labor Cost

…that I want to sum up in a field named TOTAL. NOTE: There are occasions when only the Labor or Purchase costs are populated – but I still need the TOTAL field populated with the cost of either field. Currently, the only way to get the total is to have it calculated during a Workflow after the record has been submitted

(TOTAL = ({custrecord_vta_cmrest_purchase_cost})+({custrecord_vta_cmrest_labor_cost})).

However, this isn’t ideal for the other steps within the Workflow.

Howdy, Stranger!
