This page describes how to create Calculated Attributes in dRofus. Using the Calculated Attributes feature, you can build formulas dynamically using available dRofus fields to create additional fields. Calculated Attributes are available for Rooms, Items, Occurrences, and Products and allow you to build simple to very complex results. We explain how to do this for Room Calculated Attributes, and on this page, we will go over how this can be done for items. The Calculated Attribute Formats are the same across dRofus. A good baseline understanding of how Item Composite Text Attributes work is a great place to start since the rules can be combined with these attributes. The Room Subtraction Example was a simple one that could be applied to items, but we will go more complex for this example.

Info

You need admin access to the database to create calculated attributes, as the setup is done in the Administration settings. Please refer to Project Administrator.

Note

This feature can not be exported to xml or PDF, but is available in Excel Exports and Revit/ArchiCAD Add-On configurations.

The goal behind these examples is to give you a sense of what is possible using items and examples. There are several different Calculated Attribute Formats to explore.
