Re: Find sum of two tables; display only if > 0 ? - Adobe LiveCycle

Thank you for your suggestion. I'm not certain that it addresses my issue, however.The form has two check boxes: giftware, and clothing.If the user checks giftware, the giftware table appears and he/she can enter values. The table is coded such that the footer row does $ = sum(Row[*].Pre-price) to determine the sub-total. The grand total for the table is calculated as the sum of 5% tax added to the sub-total.If the user checks clothing, the clothing chart appears, and the user can enter values. ...

Find sum of two tables; display only if > 0 ? - Adobe LiveCycle

I am presently creating an order form in LiveCycle. Within it are two checkboxes: clothing and giftware.Each checkbox is tied to a table, visible or hidden, depending whether the box is checked. With me so far?The first table allows the user to specify color, style, quantity, list price, logo/insignia location, etc. on clothing. The user can add or delete rows, and the table calculates the total, sales tax and grand total on the fly. No problem.The second table allows the user to specify etching...

Re: Autosum totals for amounts in multiple instances of table? - Adobe LiveCycle

Note that I've renamed the subform:The code for the AmtExclGST is:Sum($.resolveNode("ExpenseInfo").ExpenseDetails[*].Row1.AmtExclGST)And the code for GST is:Sum($.resolveNode("ExpenseInfo").ExpenseDetails[*].Row1.GST)This worked!Thank you very, very, very much!

Re: Autosum totals for amounts in multiple instances of table? - Adobe LiveCycle

If Add row is clicked, add a new instance of ExpenseDetails table. Conversely, if Delete row is clicked, remove current instance of ExpenseDetails table.These actions were built using the Action Builder, not code.Can you let me know where the wildcard, [*], goes?

Re: Autosum totals for amounts in multiple instances of table? - Adobe LiveCycle

Unless I misunderstood your post, I put the line of code provided in the GST cell of the Labels row in the Totals table.This illustrates the table, and that it's configured to be repeatable.As indicated earlier, the Add/Delete buttons add/remove an instance of the entire table.

Autosum totals for amounts in multiple instances of table? - Adobe LiveCycle

I'm using LiveCycle ES2 to create an expense claim form. I have no trouble calculating the sum of all values in a column in a table with repeatable rows. However, this form is more complex. As you'll see, each item (expense) is a table. Clicking the button adds a new instance of the table. No problem with the calculation for GST, either.Where it gets tricky is trying to dynamically calculate the grand totals for all expenses incurred and for all GST. This is in a different table, as you can see ...
