QuestionQ11

Build business application logic and automation

A company uses Dataverse to configure derived values for sales records.

The company requires the following functionality:

  • Evaluate an expression using numerical columns in the same row.
  • Calculate the result dynamically when it is accessed.
  • Ensure that the result is not stored as part of the table data.
  • Minimize the use of custom code.

You need to configure the app.

What should you do?

  • A Use a business rule to populate the value.
  • B Create a JavaScript function.
  • C Configure a dataflow.
  • D Create a calculated column.
Explanation

Dataverse calculated columns support mathematical expressions that use columns from the current table. Their values are calculated in real time when retrieved, so the derived value does not need to be stored as ordinary table data and no custom JavaScript is required.
