Overview

In Dataforce ASAP, calculation modifiers represent a single multiplication/division (multiplier) and a single addition/subtraction (modifier) within a calculation type.

A modifier’s multiplier and modifier values can be sourced through the following:

  • Fixed Value
  • Question Answer
  • Product Quantity
  • Product Attribute
  • Calculation Result

To be included in an appointment’s calculation, a modifier must be linked to an appointment by:

  • Selecting the mandatory requirement on the modifier’s group (will force all modifiers within the group to be applied to the calculation regardless of whether it is linked)
  • Attaching the modifier to a question answer

  1. Navigate to the Calculation Modifier Group Management screen through Calculations Calculation Modifiers
  2. Fill the configuration options
  3. Select Add Calculation Modifier

Updating a Modifier

  1. Navigate to the Calculation Modifier Group Management screen through Calculations Calculation Modifier Groups
  2. Select the Calculation Modifier Group
  3. Update the configuration options
