calculating the days based on quarterly wise.
Hi all ,
I have one object called Leaves.This object contains fields like fromdate(date),todate(date),employee(lookup of employee object.)First time create the record in leaves object successfully.In this no of days as formula field like as follows.Noofdays=todate-fromdate+1 and Noofavailableleaves like as follows,Noofavailabledays=12-noofdays.It works fine.
first time,
Fromdate:1/5/2012
Todate:1/6/2012
No.of.days=2
No.of.availableleaves=12-2=10
employee=abc;
It works fine.
Second time when i try to create record with same employee,Then i want the values like this in formula fields.
Fromdate:2/5/2012
Todate:2/6/2012
No.of.days=2
No.of.available leaves=10-2=8Because in the previous record the same employee is created and this emaployee contains noofavailableleavs is 10.next time i want to display the value vaue based on the first created record
employee=abc;
Problem:But in the second time also display the No.of.available leaves as 10.How to fix this.i hope it would be clear. Any one can u please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Instead of Formula field, why not write a small trigger to update No of available leaves Field? .Through trigger you can find the existing value of this field for given employee and can do required calculation on this value
