Diving a Variable using Expression

Hi All,

I have a variable as 'vVol' with expression as -

sum({$<$(vFlag)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlag)={'1'}>}vol2)

When I try to divide above variable with some expression, I am not getting the expected value for example -

($(vVol)

/(sum({$<$(vFlagP)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlagP)={'1'}>}vol2)))-1

Can anyone pls assist.

Regards,

MK

Create a variable like below

vVol=(sum({$<$(vFlag)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlag)={'1'}>}vol2))


can you share sample App so we can work on that

vVol has two terms, so you need to wrap it in an extra pair of brackets, otherwise only the 2nd term is being divided:

(($(vVol)) / (sum({$<$(vFlagP) = {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlagP) = {'1'}>} vol2)))-1

(sum({$<$(vFlag)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlag)={'1'}>}vol2))/((sum({$<$(vFlagP)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlagP)={'1'}>}vol2)))-1)

try the above one, if that works fine

do like this

($(vVol))/((sum({$<$(vFlagP)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlagP)={'1'}>}vol2)))-1)

you have the same expression in the variable and in the denominator??

put this in a text object sum({$<$(vFlagP)= {'1'}>}vol1) + sum({$<$(vFlagP)={'1'}>}vol2))) and see if returns a valid value

you can not use the expression like this

sum({$<$(vFlagP)= {'1'}>}vol1)

try changing it as follows

sum({$<YourDimension={1}>}Vol1)+sum({$<YourDimension={1}>}Vol2)
