On the Fly Calculation

The On the Fly Calculation (List) chart type allows you to configure a calculation on the fly, that is shown in the Quick Summary panel instead of a chart. This option allows you to easily extend the set of data for an element template, which makes it available to calculated values, according to the configured expression. The expression is any formula that uses arithmetical operators, combined with attributes or built-in functions, that are made available by the SFHub calculation engine (for more details, please refer related documentation).
