columns and formulas messing up

columns and formulas messing up

When I try to add new columns to the ecart object and insert the new option items into the various formulas ( the description, unit price, and total price calculations) the brackets ] and [ are all messed up.

I have to hand edit ALL the formulas EVERY time I make a change of any kind, and if I dont do it one by one saving each step, it throws errors.

HELP... I have 5 new columns for options I need to add, each with a description column (text) and a price column (currency) and I have been at it for hours, only to have one work correctly.

Thanks.

Through the back end support ticket, we were able to discover that the names that were getting the brackets misplaced were caused by having another name that was a subset of the first one. For example, the longer name would be abcdefg and the shorter name would be abc and the bracket would look like this: [abc]defg instead of [abcdefg]. This only happens if the longer name starts with the shorter name.

To get around this, you can change the bracket position manually or make a copy of the correct formula and paste the formula in each time you need to edit the calculation.
