Hey @avisingh1996,

 

I am not sure if I understand you correlty - are you trying to run one formula on multiple columns? 

In this case you can choose the "Multi-Field Formula" tool, there you can select a formula that does the same thing to all the selected columns. 

 

A few things to look out at this tool: 

1. Select the Datatype for your fields, then tick them.

2. If you want to overwrite your field make sure to untick "Copy Output...."

3. _CurrentField_ always references the field.

4. The formula editor doesn't color or suggest formulas, sometimes it is better tio write the actual formula in a regula formula tool first and then C&P+adjust it.

Thanks a lot FrederikE,

 

The multi field formula worked fine but the thing is that all the new columns have been added after all the actual fields. Is there a way that every individual scores column is added next to their metrices. 

 

With the help of Excel I can add a blank column beside each employee's metrices but how to make the Multi field formula tool to paste the formulas in those blank fields.

 

Thanks for the help again...

Hey @avisingh1996,

 

Unfortunately, the fields are always posted to the end of the table. You can rearrange them with a select tool, but that is a static process.
