Description
- Calculated column formulas derive data from other columns in the same list item. These can be simple calculations and text manipulations, or complex Excel-style formulas.
- Column validation formulas are used to create custom validations for user entered data. These can be used to make certain that “quantities” aren’t negative and vacation requests are for dates sooner or later.*Column default formulas, even as very limited, can auto-fill columns with a date 30 days sooner or later or a message based on the month or day of the week the item was added.
- List / Library validation formulas are used to check the values from multiple columns to verify the relationship between two or more columns. Examples include making sure a task start date is before the task end date, or to make sure an entry has a “price per pound” or a “price each”, but not both.
