Chin's inaugural Musings entry provides a helpful rundown of [[Template Formulas]] and how they allow you to update field values on any object.

==What?==
[[Template_Formulas|Template Formulas]] provide a method for updating [[Standard_Field|standard]] or [[Custom_Field|custom field]] values on an object behind the scenes upon saving. They let you perform extra calculations after saving an object. They can be handy because they let you:
# update an object and perform calculations after it has been saved (i.e. support ticket subjects, say you want to combine an [[Autonumber|autonumber field]] with the L1 subject but, when you first create the L1, the autonumber hasn't been reserved and stored yet until after you save).
