Expressions allows <!--T:68--><div class="index-right">__TOC__</div> <!--T:69-->You can create expressions (formulas) directly in the dashboard components. It can thus display calculated values that are not present in the datasource file/spreadsheet.  <!--T:70-->To create the expression (formula) in the components, the component must support the addition of the special column ''Expression (Formula)''.  <!--T:71-->In TaticView , all columns in the data file can be used in expressions as long as they are also added to the component that will receive the expression.  <!--T:72-->In addition, it is also possible to manually use fixed numbers and texts in the case of comparative expressions.  <!--T:73-->Expression Example: <!--T:74-->* If the component has the columns ''Total Price'' and ''Quantity'', you can create and edit an expression to calculate the ''Unit Price''. Would be like this:** ''"Total Price"'' / ''"Quantity"''* In addition, you can use fixed values, such as:** ''"Total price"'' / 10  <!--T:75-->We just remember that currently TaticView only supports expressions whose numeric return.  <!--T:225-->Expressions support the backslash as [[FiltersEscapeChar|escape character]] rules so that names can contain the delimiting characters. <!--T:76-->Below are details about how the expressions work: == Basic structure of a Expression (Formula) == <!--T:77--> ==== Identifier ==== <!--T:226--> <!--T:227-->It is the name of the field or column involved in the expression, it must be delimited by double quotes. <!--T:228-->* Examples: "Average Price". "Screw 1\" philips", "Seler" ==== Value Operand ==== <!--T:78--> <!--T:79-->It's the numerical values. You can use both while values and decimal values. For decimal values, the decimal separator should be the point. <!--T:80-->* Examples: 1, 1.05, 2.55 <!--T:220-->* Important: Do not use thousand separator in numeric values. ==== Text Operand ==== <!--T:81--> <!--T:82-->It's the text operands. If you want to use this type of operand in a expression, you must delimit them by the single quotation mark ('). <!--T:83-->* Examples: 'John Snow', 'California', 'Spaghetti'  ==== Date Operand ==== <!--T:84--> <!--T:85-->These are values that express any date. To represent a date in expressions the behaviour is similar to text operands, i.e. the content must be surrounded by single quotation marks ('). However, the mask ''dd/MM/yyyy'' must be used. <!--T:86-->* Examples: '01/01/2019', '14/11/2019', '25/12/2019'  ==== Boolean Operand ==== <!--T:87--> <!--T:88-->They're operators of the true or false type. Normally user to validate, or not, a condition in a more complex expression. <!--T:89-->* Examples: true, false  ==== Parentheses ==== <!--T:90--> <!--T:91-->Used to group and separate parts of on expression. Expressions within parentheses are processed first. <!--T:92-->* Example: ("Profit"/"Total Price") + 10  ==== System variable Operand ==== <!--T:93--> <!--T:94-->These are predefined variables in the system. To use the system variables you must precede them by hashtag (#) and delimit them by double quotes(").

==== Constants list ====<!--T:213-->** '''0'''Syntax: DATE_FIELD_YEAR NUM_OF_MONTHS(Year part<date 1>; <date 2>);** '''1'''Example: DATE_FIELD_MONTH (Month part);** '''2''': DATE_FIELD_DAY NUM_OF_MONTHS(FIRST_DAY_OF(Day part0; "Date");** "Date")'''3- Returns the number of months between the first day of the year and the current month, based on the ''': DATE_FIELD_FORTNIGHT (Fortnight part);** 'Date''5''': DATE_FIELD_WEEK (Week part);column.
==== Date part PREVIOUS_DATE function (Previous date) ====Return a part of a date. Syntax: ''DATE_PART(<expression_date>;<constant>)''. Need two parameters, the first is the reference date and the second the constant representing the desired part date!--T: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see above constants list). '''Examples''': DATE_PART("Order Date";0) 214-- returns the year part of the "Order Date";>
==== Day from today ====<!--T:215-->Return Given a day and a backward month, returns the last occurrence of that date. That is, if the current date (negativetoday) or forward is less than the date passed by parameter (positiveday / month) , the return is the date counting from today. Syntax: ''DAY_FROM_TODAY(<expression_number_days>passed by parameter)''of the previous year. Need one parameter, Otherwise the number of days to add or subtract. '''Examples''': DAY_FROM_TODAY(-1) - returns return will be the yesterday current year date;.
==== First day of ====Return the first day of a grouping. This function have two variations<!--T:216-->* '''First way'''Syntax: Syntax: ''FIRST_DAY_OF PREVIOUS_DATE(<constant_groupingday>;<expression_datemonth>)''. Need two parameters, the first is the constant grouping in which you want to obtain the first dateExamples: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see constants list) and the second is the anchor base date. '''Examples ''': FIRST_DAY_OFPREVIOUS_DATE(015;DAY_FROM_TODAY(0)) - first day of year (012) from today (DAY_FROM_TODAY(0)), FIRST_DAY_OF(1;"Order Date") - first day of month (1) based on the "Order Data";* '''Second way- Considering that today''': Syntax: ''FIRST_DAY_OF(<constant_grouping>;<constant_modify_date>;<modify_date_value>)''. Need three parameterss date is 14/11/2019, the first is the constant grouping in which you want last time December 15th occurred relative to obtain the first today's date: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see constants list)was 15/12/2018, so this will be the second is the modifier of the base date from today: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see constants list) and the third is the amount to change the modifierreturn. '''Examples''': FIRST_DAY_OF(1;0;-1) - first day of the current month (1) from last year (0;-1);
==== Last day of ====
Return the last day of a grouping. This function have two variations:
* '''First way''':
Syntax: ''LAST_DAY_OF(<constant_grouping>;<expression_date>)''. Need two parameters, the first is the constant grouping in which you
want to obtain the last date: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see constants list) and the second is the anchor base date.
'''Examples''': LAST_DAY_OF(0;DAY_FROM_TODAY(0)) - last day of year (0) from today (DAY_FROM_TODAY(0)), LAST_DAY_OF(1;"Order Date") -
last day of month (1) based on the "Order Data";
* '''Second way''':
Syntax: ''LAST_DAY_OF(<constant_grouping>;<constant_modify_date>;<modify_date_value>)''. Need three parameters, the first is the
constant grouping in which you want to obtain the last date: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see constants list), the second is the modifier
of the base date from today: 0, 1, 2, 3 or 5 (see constants list) and the third is the amount to change the modifier.
'''Examples''': LAST_DAY_OF(1;0;-1) - last day of the current month (1) from last year (0;-1);
==Special Variables == New date ====Create an object from a day, month and year. Syntax: ''NEW_DATE(<expression_day>;<expression_month>;<expression_year>)''. Need three parameters, the first is a valid day number (1 to 31), the second for a month (1 to 12) and the third is a year. The date is created from year to day, therefore, the day must be valid for the month and the year (considering 29/02, year must be bissextile). '''Examples'''!--T: NEW_DATE(1;4;DATE_PART("Order Date";0)) 217- create the first day of april from the year determined by the current row "Order Date" column;->
==== Num of days ====Return the number of days between two dates. Syntax: ''NUM_OF_DAYS(<expression_date1>;<expression_date2>)''. Need two date data type parameters. '''Examples'''!--T: NUM_OF_DAYS(FIRST_DAY_OF(0;"Order Date");"Order Date") 218-- returns the number of days between the first day of year based on> the "Order Date" column They can be used in conjunction with expressions to the current day of the "Order Date" column, NUM_OF_DAYS(FIRST_DAY_OF(1;"Pay Date"); LAST_DAY_OFcreate complex calculations. Must be used in double quotation marks (1;"Pay Date")) - returns the number of days of the month of the "Pay Date" column;
==== Num of months ====
Return the number of months between two dates.
Syntax: ''NUM_OF_MONTHS(<expression_date1>;<expression_date2>)''. Need two date data type parameters.
'''Examples''': NUM_OF_MONTHS(FIRST_DAY_OF(0;"Date");"Date") - Return the number of months between the first day of the year of the "Date"
column and the current month of the "Date" column;
==== Previous date ====<!--T:219-->* '''"@count"''' - Total number of rows that were returned for the component.Return * '''"@row"''' - Current row number* '''"@sum[column]"''' - Sum of the closest exact previous date given a day and monthindicated column. Syntax** Example: ''PREVIOUS_DATE(<expression_day>;<expression_month>)"@sum[Price]"''. Need two parameters, - returns the first is the day sum of month and all rows in the second the month''Price'' column. * '''Examples"@avg[column]"''': PREVIOUS_DATE(1;4) - return the closest Average column, similar to ''"@sum[column]"''01/04'', in other words, until "01/04/@count"''* '''"@prev[column]"''' - Row value before current yearrow for this column* '''"@totalRowValue[column]"''' - Value of total row, returns (if present), from this column.* '''"01/04/last year@accumCol[column]",''' - Cumulative value from column to current row. Useful for calculating variable mean. after that returns ** Example: ''"@accumCol[column]"01'' /04/current year''"@row".''
