Using Function Fields

Function fields are used to hold data requiring calculated values such as order quantity, location space, or population size. Function fields are given specific usage types. The usage types determine the allowable values of a function field.

Function fields specify work or calculation fields that can be used in CA 2E functions. Function fields can be placed on device designs and defined to represent special derivatives like summations, maximum and minimum values.
