Purpose

This is used to calculate a single summary value based on the contents of a numeric list. All values should be numbers.

Usage

Note 1: the default output format is F2. You can override this with the format parameter. Note 2: you may also use the calculate parameter to perform calculation on the values

Examples (13)

Example 1: Normal mode

This Normal Mode example demonstrates finding multiple aggregations from an input list, and outputs a JObject that contains a property name and value for each aggregation. Finally, the [Calculate:] macro shorthand [.:] is used to select a property from the JObject and output to the report:

// Use the Calculate macro shorthand to create a list
[=: `list(3, 2, 1)`, =>List1]

// Obtain the Min and Max aggregations and store the result in a variable
[List.SummaryValue: values={=List1}, aggregations=Min;Max, mode=Normal, =>Aggregations]

// Use the Calculate macro shorthand to obtain the properties from the JObject
Min = [.:Aggregations.Min]
Max = [.:Aggregations.Max]

Outputs:

Min = 1.00 Max = 3.00

---

Example 2: Normal mode

This Normal Mode example demonstrates finding multiple aggregations from an input 'table' (list of lists), and outputs a JObject that contains a property name and value for each aggregation. Finally, the [Calculate:] macro shorthand [.:] is used to select a property from the JObject and output to the report:

// Use the Calculate macro shorthand to create a table (list of lists)
[=: `list(list(3), list(2), list(1))`, =>Table]

// Obtain the Min and Max aggregations and store the result in a variable
[List.SummaryValue: values={=Table}, aggregations=Min;Max, mode=Normal, =>Aggregations]

// Use the Calculate macro shorthand to obtain the properties from the JObject
Min = [.:Aggregations.Min]
Max = [.:Aggregations.Max]

Outputs:

Min = 1.00 Max = 3.00

---

Example 3: Normal mode

This Normal Mode example demonstrates finding multiple aggregations from an input array / list of JObjects, and outputs a JObject that contains the aggregations. Finally, the [Calculate:] macro shorthand [.:] is used to select a property from the JObject and output to the report:

// Use the Calculate macro shorthand to create a list of JObjects
[=: `list(jObject('Item', 1), jObject('Item', 2) ,jObject('Item', 3), jObject('Item', 9))`, mode=Normal, =>JObjects]

// Obtain the Min and Max aggregations and store the result in a variable
[List.SummaryValue: values={=JObjects}, aggregations=First;Last;Count, mode=Normal, =>Aggregations]

// Use the Calculate macro shorthand to obtain the properties from the JObject
First = [.:Aggregations.First.Item]
Last = [.:Aggregations.Last.Item]
Count = [.:Aggregations.Count]

Outputs:

First = 1 Last = 9 Count = 4
