Calculated fields in Report Builder

Thanks, Chris! 

Being able to create (even basic) calculated fields in the Report Builder would give me significant flexibility/power to show attainment metrics (of allsorts) quickly and easily in reports and dashboards.

Right now I'd have to build a rule, along with data fields, to store the attainment metrics, but even this wouldn't work for the use case described above (where we want to see that relative measure based on values that are grouped by quarter, month, week, etc). 

Our executives and managers care about these types of attainment metrics, and often want to see these metrics aggregated/grouped by some time period. By deploying this feature, we will definitely see greater executive and sr. manager adoption of the platform.

Thanks for considering! Please let me know if I can provide additional details about our use-case.

Hi folks - this is a very valid use case and is currently being considered for development. No definite ETA on arrival yet. 

Agreed - my use case would be to compare two dates and return the difference in number of days (positive or negative).

Thanks Dan! Please keep us posted 🙂

I've bumped into several recent use cases where a Calculated Field would be helpful on a report. Now that I've become used to Bionic Rules, I find myself missing similar feature sets (Transform, Pivot, Merge) when I'm over in Report Builder.

I find myself often needing to compare two fields together too. For example, comparing two date fields to one another. Not having that ability in the report builder makes validating results that I've generated in the rules engine more cumbersome.

Another customer has reached out to me today wondering where in the roadmap is the ability to create a calculated field in the report level. It would be very helpful and help them them from having to create new MDA tables, pivot data, and add more rules. 

Hi Kate, I have a similar use case. I referred to this KB article - https://support.gainsight.com/Rules_Engine/Admin_Guides/Using_Calculated_Fields_in_Rules and I have a few doubts. Wondering if you faced the similar issues?

I am comparing two dates that are available on MDA object and want to return the difference in number of days on the R360. 
The bionic rule ran successfully but the new field is not to be seen on the MDA object.
Is there something that is missing ?

Is there an update on this?

Any update on this? This would be very helpful. For now, we've resorted to creating custom fields in MDA but it would be great if this was supported within Report Builder!
