Calculate expression based on Input box variable

Hi All,

Recently, I want to create a dashboard which can quote the total price.

For example, when the user type "10" in the input box, assume the unit price is "$5", the total price will show 50 automatically.

 Could anyone how to do it?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards,

Michael

While you create an input box, you get to provide a variable to hold the value, say it's vInput. Then you could just use the variable in your expression like :

= [Unit Price]*vInput

One example how it could be done is attached;
