Nested Variables not working - sum of variables only evaluating first variable

[DawidDaw]

Hello,

Im developing a QS app in QS Enterprise server. I have multiple variables that are frequently summed. When I use the syntax I am used to it only sums the first part.

Example:

Variables:

vVar1 = 3

vVar2 = 5

Result I am getting (last should obviously be 8):

EXPRESSION used	=$(vVar1)	=$(vVar2)	=$(vVar1)+$(vVar2)
RESULT	3	5	3

If I flip the variables around ($(vVar2)+$(vVar1)) I get 5 as a result.

I tried different syntaxes, all return an error or nothing.

What I tried:

• adding or removing $ in variables or expression
• adding or removing = in variables or expression
• moving around the brackets

Everything return an error or a " - " cell, except the above method which only sums the first one.

Any idea's?

Thanks!

Hi sunny,

Sorry for not getting back to you, I've been of work. 

Our DB architects released a new version of the dataset. I cannot reproduce the issue with the new variables, the sums work fine.

I still have a non refreshed version of the original dataset, I'll investigate if I have some time. will post if I do. 

Thanks anyway for your help!
