Select from the value list. The properties are referenced by a GUID, ID, or alias. --- ## Children objects This section specifies objects that hold properties to use in the calculation. The following fields are available by default: - [Relationship mode](#property-calculations-relationship-mode) - [Relationship property](#property-calculations-relationship-property) - [Object type](#property-calculations-object-type) - [Class](#property-calculations-class) - [Workflow](#property-calculations-workflow) - [State](#property-calculations-state) - [Search filters](#property-calculations-search-filters) - [Dynamic search filters](#property-calculations-dynamic-search-filters) ### Relationship mode *Children objects > Relationship mode* Defines the type of relationship between parent and children objects, specifying how references between them are established. - **All (default)**: When this option is selected, both parent and child objects can reference each other. - **FromParentToChildren:** When this option is selected, parent objects must reference the children objects, but not vice versa. - **FromChildrenToParent:** When this option is selected, children objects must reference the parent objects. ### Relationship property *Children objects > Relationship property* Relationship property between parent and children objects. If not set, any property can be used as relationship. Specifies the property used to define the relationship between parent and child objects. If not set, any property can be used as the relationship reference between parent and child objects. Select from the value list. The properties are referenced by a GUID, ID, or alias. ### Object type *Children objects > Object type* Specifies the object type of children objects. Select from the list of object types. ### Class *Children objects > Classes* Specifies the class of children objects. Select from the list of classes. ### Workflow *Children objects > Workflow* Specifies the workflow of children objects. Select from the list of workflows. ### State *Children objects > State* Specifies the workflow state of children objects. Select from a list of available workflow states within a particular workflow. **NOTE!** If you have entered a workflow state, you must also specify the workflow above. ### Search filters *Children objects > Search filters* Optional search filters that children objects need to satisfy. Multiple filters are combined with the OR operator. Within the Search filters section, you’ll find the [Search conditions](https://extensionkit.unitfly.com/documentation/common-features/#searchconditionscommon) field. ### Dynamic search filters *Children objects > Dynamic search filters* Optional dynamic search filters that children objects need to satisfy. Multiple filters are combined with the OR operator. Within the Dynamic search filters section, you’ll find the following fields: [Property](https://extensionkit.unitfly.com/documentation/common-features/#propertycommon2), [Operator](https://extensionkit.unitfly.com/documentation/common-features/#operatorcommon), [Value](https://extensionkit.unitfly.com/documentation/common-features/#valuecommon), and [Mode](https://extensionkit.unitfly.com/documentation/common-features/#modecommon). ### Look in *Children objects > Look in* *Displayed when a search filter is added.* Determines whether the source object must meet the specified conditions in its current version or any version throughout its history.

Expand **Calculation properties**. 2. Click on **Add Property definition**. ### Property definition Specifies the property to use in the calculation. Select from the value list. Properties are referenced by a GUID, ID, or alias. --- ## Function Specifies the function to apply to calculate properties. - **Sum (default)**: Valid for numeric and lookup-based properties. - **Subtract**: Valid for numeric properties only. - **Multiply:** Valid for numeric properties only. - **Divide**: Valid for numeric properties only. - **Average**: Valid for numeric properties only. - **Percent**: Valid for numeric properties only. - **Count**: Valid for numeric, text, date, boolean, and lookup-based properties. - **Min:** Valid for numeric, text, date, and lookup-based properties. If selected, the **Order by** field becomes available. - **Max**: Valid for numeric, text, date, and lookup-based properties. If selected, the **Order by** field becomes available. - **First**: Valid for numeric, text, date, and lookup-based properties. If selected, the **Order by** field becomes available. - **Last**: Valid for numeric, text, date, and lookup-based properties. If selected, the **Order by** field becomes available. - **Concatenate**: Valid for all property types. If selected, the **Separator** field becomes available. - **ToLower**: If selected, the **Separator** field becomes available. - **ToUpper**: If selected, the **Separator** field becomes available. - **ToLowerInvariant**: If selected, the **Separator** field becomes available. - **ToUpperInvariant**: If selected, the **Separator** field becomes available. ## Order by *Displayed only when Function is one of the following: Min, Max, First, or Last.* If calculated properties are lookups to objects, they will be ordered by the selected property. Select the property definition from the value list. ## Separator *Displayed only when Function is one of the following: Concatenate, ToLower, ToUpper, ToLowerInvariant, ToUpperInvariant.* Specifies the separator used to separate concatenated children’s property values. The default value is **,.**
