Custom Fields
This section explains the following tasks:
Defining a custom field
Understanding options available for
custom fields (Field Type, Data Type, Peak
Type, Sample Type)
Creating each type of custom field
Developing more complex fields
Custom Fields
Custom fields are created in a Project.
To create a custom field, you need the Alter
Any Project and the Create Custom Fields
privileges.
These privileges are specific to custom fields:
Create
Alter
Delete
Lock
Unlock.
You can include custom fields in reports.

Recommended Approach
Plan your custom fields on paper.
Work in a test project.
Ensure the custom field performs as expected.
Copy your custom field to other projects after
you verify its usability.

Calculation Guidelines
Evaluation is done left to right.
Sequence precedence for basic mathematical
operators is exponent, multiply, divide, add,
subtract (**, *, /, +, ).
The Precision limit parameter must be of a
sufficient value to display the calculated
result.

Calculation Guidelines
CCompRef2, and CCompRef3 peak fields. For example, in
CCalRef1[Area], the field name must be enclosed in square
brackets.

If you specify a label, the search order determines where to look for results.
If you do not specify a label, only the injections from the current row of the sample set
are considered. This is limited to the current result set. The search order has no effect
if a label is not specified.
If you specify a label, but do not specify an injection, the most recent results,
excluding the current result, are used.
If you do not specify an injection and a label, the current injection is used. In such a
case, you must specify a channel.
If you specify an injection, and do not specify a channel, the same channel that is
currently being processed is used.
You must specify a label, an injection, or a channel. Otherwise, the reference is to the
current injection and channel, and no additional syntax is required.
If you do not specify a channel, the channel that matches the current channel name is
used.
When you select to exclude a label, injection, or channel, the period symbol (.) must
still be used. This example only has injection specified: .2..AVE(Area)
