    Thank you for creating such an awesome plugin. i am trying to create a calculated field with following code. but its not working. please help me to find the error.

    (function(){
    var int_rate = fieldname2/100 ;
    var amt = fieldname3 ;
    int i ;
    var new_amt = amt*(1+int_rate);

    for( i = 2 ; i <= 14 ; i++ )
    {
    new_amt = new_amt*(1+int_rate);
    }

    Hi,

    Your equation has some syntax errors, the correct would be:

    (function(){
  var int_rate = fieldname2/100;
  var amt = fieldname3;
  var new_amt = amt*(1+int_rate);

  for( var i = 2 ; i <= 14 ; i++ )
  {
    new_amt = new_amt*(1+int_rate);
  }
  return ROUND(new_amt);
})()

    Best regards.

    hi happy to say it finally worked by making a small change
    return ROUND(new_amt);
    was changed to
    return ROUND(new_amt,0);
    thank you for awesome plugin and awesome support…

    Hi,

    In reality the correct syntax for the ROUND operation is ROUND(X), this operation is an alias of Math.round, more information in the following link.

    https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Math/round

    The second parameter is not being used.

    Best regards.
