Viewers: Insert a Column with Calculations

 

Use the following procedure to add a column to a viewer based on a calculation. The example screen shots in this job aid use the Inventory viewer, adding a column to calculate the difference between Order Point and Quantity on Hand.

If you save a view that contains a calculated column based on another calculated column, the calculation will not be preserved when views are updated after installing a new level of Eagle for Windows. You will need to re-create the column.
