SharePoint Calculated Columns and Validation Formulas:

SharePoint Calculated Columns and Validation Formulas: Everything you need to know about SharePoint formulas for SharePoint 2010 to 2019 and SharePoint Online / Office 365

This book is for the SharePoint â€œpower userâ€ who needs a better understanding of how SharePoint formulas work, where they donâ€™t work, and how they are created. While at first glance SharePoint formulas appear to be simple calculations, they are both quite powerful and have weird limitations. In this book we will explore the basics of creating Calculated Columns and Validation formulas with some boring details, and over one hundred examples. We also explore workarounds for many of the limitations by using SharePoint Designer workflows and a few tricks!Where are formulas used in SharePoint?â€¢Calculated column formulas derive data from other columns in the same list item. These can be simple calculations and text manipulations, or complex Excel-style formulas.â€¢Column validation formulas are used to create custom validations for user entered data. These can be used to make sure that "quantities" are not negative and vacation requests are for dates in the future.â€¢Column default formulas, while very limited, can auto-fill columns with a date 30 days in the future or a message based on the month or day of the week the item was added.â€¢List / Library validation formulas are used to check the values from multiple columns to verify the relationship between two or more columns. Examples include making sure a task start date is before the task end date, or to make sure an entry has a "price per pound" or a "price each", but not both.Who is this book for?Anyone who works with creating and customizing lists and libraries. These include: SharePoint on premise Farm Administrators, Office 365 SharePoint administrators, Site Collection Administrators, Site Owners, Power users, and Developers.Over 100 Examples!â€¢Over 60 Calculated Columns examplesâ€¢Over 30 Column Validation examplesâ€¢11 List/Library Item Validation examples (and every one of the Column Validation examples can be used here.)â€¢7 Calculated Column Default Values examplesâ€¢15 Workflow â€œworkaroundsâ€ for things SharePoint formulas canâ€™t doTable of Contentsâ€¢Read Me Firstâ€¢Tips for Formulasâ€¢Calculated Columnsâ€¢Calculated Column Examplesâ€¢Calculated Default Columnsâ€¢Column Validation Formulasâ€¢Column Validation Examplesâ€¢List/Library Item Validationâ€¢List/Library Item Validation Examplesâ€¢Other Forms of Validationâ€¢Workflow Workaroundsâ€¢Error Messages
