Add formulas

You can add formulas to an account to enable the automatic calculation of a Debit or Credit account balance based on selected values. Formulas allow you to calculate the average value of the selected accounts (AVERAGE) or the sum of their balances (SUM) and to perform the following mathematical operations on the selected account balance values to calculate the account value:

  • Addition (+)
  • Subtraction (-)
  • Division (:)
  • Multiplication (*)

To add formulas:

    3. Click Save.

Another way to add a formula:

Note:
  • The Debit formula field is used to deduct the formula result from the account balance.
  • The Credit formula field is used to add the formula result to the account balance.
  • Formulas consist of two main components: the accounts (1) and the operations on them and the built-in SUM and AVERAGE functions (2).
    Formulas components

The formulas have been added to the account.

A recursive updating of account balances based on Formulas is implemented. If there is a chain of dependent formulas, when updating the balance of an account at the bottom of the chain, all balances of dependent formulas in the chain above (upstream) are updated on a graph.

See the video below about calculating the average value of the selected accounts.
