Calculated field

[Altair]

I have a datapage with fields from a table. I have created a calculated Total field in the datapage that adds the values in the fields. 

The problem is that i have to fill all fields with a number before the calculated Total field calculates the total value. If one of the fields are blank, the field will not calculate. 

Any idea how to fix this?

If you want to calculate all the fields even if there are some blanks values to the other fields, you may use ISNULL for that. Let say:

ISNULL([@fieldTest1],0) + ISNULL([@field:Test2],0) + ISNULL([@field:Test3],0) 

You may follow and continue that format until "ISNULL([@field:Testxx],0)".

Hi,

Just to update this post, after the release 19.0, the IsNull() Function in your formula might not work. Using IsNull() in Formula Fields, Calculated Values and Calculated Fields will only accept date/time values for the replacement value. 

Please see the link below for more details:

ISNULL stills seems to be working for me. If it were true that ISNULL will be deprecated, what should we use as a replacement?

You may try IFNULL() or COALESCE() Function. Check this site for more information:
