A Role Formula is analogous to a [[Template / Type Formula]], though it performs advanced calculations and logic on custom fields stored on the Contact profile, for Contacts possessing this roleRole. The Role Formula is entered on the [[User Role|Edit Role page]] and will only be applicable for contacts who possess this Role.
An example Role Formula would be:
<nowiki>@totalpoints@=@trans.sum(#1224#+#23445#):typename='whatever'@</nowiki>
*In this example, '''totalpoints''' is the custom field we are storing the sum in.*The sum is of all [[transactions]] on the user's record of custom field id numbers 1224 and 23445 given a particular transaction type name ("whatever").*The custom field named '''totalpoints''' will be updated on the profile of contacts who possess this Role every time the contact page is saved.
