|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 1. Click on '+' (Add column)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 2. Populate column Name
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 3. Select column Type as 'Formula'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 4. Insert required formula
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Can use column names in equation
|
|
|
|
|
- Can use explicit numberical values/ strings as needed
|
|
|
|
|
- Table below lists supported formula & associated syntax
|
|
|
|
|
- Nested formula (formula equation referring to another formula column) are not supported
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### 5. Click on 'Save'
