Formula fields
Field
Description
Code
Enter the code of the formula.
Name
Enter the name of the formula.
System type
Displays if the formula is based on rentable units or on spaces.
Meter-based?
Specify if the formula is meter-based.
Settlement field
For formulas based on rentable units, specify a numerical field from the Rentable units, Contracts or Contract lines business object. For formulas based on spaces, specify a numerical field from the Space usage business object.
* 
You must always specify this field. In case of a meter-based formula, this field is used to divide the consumption of the meter/counter
Correction factor
For formulas based on rentable units, specify a numerical field from the Rentable units, Contracts or Contract lines business object. For formulas based on spaces, specify a numerical field from the Space usage business object.
The numerical value in this field represents the factor by which the values of the Settlement field are multiplied, for example if you want to charge a supplement or give a discount. The use of correction factors is optional. If no field is selected, the value 1 is automatically applied.
Settlement field in case of vacancy
For formulas based on rentable units, specify a field from the Rentable units business object. For formulas based on spaces, specify a field from the Space dimensions business object.
* 
This field is mandatory. The value of this field is applied if the rentable unit/space is vacant. For spaces, it is also used to check whether a space is partially vacant. This is the case when the value of the space dimensions field - (minus) the value of the space usage field is greater than zero (0).
Correction factor for 'Vacancy'
For formulas based on rentable units, specify a field from the Rentable units business object. For formulas based on spaces, specify a field from the Space dimensions business object. The numerical value in this field represents the factor by which the values of the Settlement field in case of vacancy are multiplied. The use of this field is optional. If no field is selected, the value 1 is automatically applied.
