The data type “Calculation” allows to define mathematical formulas that can include other number attributes of the same field definition as variables. The calculation attribute of a field instance will then present the result, based on the current values of number attributes that are used as variables.
...
The examplary field definition contains three data attributes of type number to store the planned budgets of different departments. To compute the total budget on the fly, we create a calculation that sums up their values.
