Definition

Field in which the result of an arithmetic operation is stored.

Use

If you are calculating the value of a tax form field from other tax form fields or their combination with special rates, you define here under which tax form field name the result should be stored. The result field needs to be defined separtely.

There are two types of formula available

  1. A = A + B.
    A is this field
    B is the source field
    + is the arithmetic operation
  2. A = B * R
    A is this field
    B is the source field
    R is the rate given in the evaluation type
    * is the arithmetic operator

Example

On schedule B of the federal tax form 941, the daily tax liabilities have to be cumulated to a monthly sum.

So you have a field, T001, for the first month's daily values and a repetition of 031. (The virtual fields T002 to T031.) The sum should be stored in field T100.

You would define the source field as T100 and the operation as '+'. Therefore, you define field T100 with no further meaning than containing the sum. The usage in SAPscript is &T100&.

On the first page of Form 941, the total of the taxable Social Security wages is given in field T101. The rate 12.4% is given as a constant value. The result of the multiplication should appear in field T102. In this case, you define the source field as T101 and in this field T102. The arithmetic operation is '*'.
